Executive Equestrian Lifestyle Property on 40 Acres
Situated on a parklike 40 acre parcel just a stone's throw from Highfields and a short 12 minute drive into the heart of Toowoomba is this country lifestyle resort of luxury, serenity and practicality. This special property offers you a stunning architect designed executive home, flood lit Olympic size sand dressage arena with mirrors, round yard and wash bays, multipurpose sheds, and five fully fenced paddocks with improved pasture. Water is supplied via a 5000GPH potable bore, multi-tank storage and springs from the upper branches of Meringandan creek. Rarely does a property of this calibre, infrastructure and position become available to purchase.
As you drive down the pebble edged bitumen driveway you will be captivated by the timeless and contemporary wood and iron façade of this unique homestead, fringed by an established native garden. Entering the house you are greeted by soaring high pavilion ceilings, generous large to the floor windows and glass corner features that invite an abundance of natural light. The ambience is complemented by glowing West Australian Karri timber floors, Tasmanian ash cabinetry and gleaming granite benchtops.
As the double front doors open you'll be captivated by the delightful view through the living area out to the rear deck and countryside beyond, which is a feature of the home. Entertaining is a breeze with the open concept living areas. The sunken lounge, living and dining areas flow seamlessly via folding glass doors onto the enormous 18 x 5m covered timber deck and BBQ area. Here you can savour breakfast with the sunrise, or host large social gatherings while enjoying the panoramic views to the east.
The large chef's kitchen is beautifully appointed with granite bench tops, breakfast bar, large food preparation areas, walk through Butler's pantry and Bosch appliances including an electric cooktop, oven and built in dishwasher. The kitchen also enjoys an expansive outlook over the deck and beyond, towards the dressage arena.
The master suite is one of the highlights, representing a true oasis within your own home. Located down the end of an atrium like passageway the spacious master bedroom is adjoined by an office and parent's retreat, offering the perfect blend of productivity and relaxation. The bedroom enjoys views down the valley through the full length windows, and the North East aspect makes the most of the morning sunlight. The spacious retreat has the potential to be repurposed as a nursery or fourth bedroom if required. The resort like ensuite boasts a double sized spa bath and open plan double sized shower. The surrounding full length glass doors open out onto a separate deck and capture the view, bringing the outdoors in. The expansive walk in robe provides plenty of storage and includes a jewellery and make up dresser for the lady of the house.
Bedrooms 2 & 3 are spacious, featuring built in robes and the unique character designed corner glass windows that flow throughout the house. The main family bathroom is generously sized and conveniently situated near the family bedrooms and laundry.
The functional laundry offers extensive storage and opens to a side entrance deck that connects undercover to the generous oversize double garage, which features a built in storage unit behind an internal roller door.
The outdoor features of the property offer practicality. A combination of three sheds combine to provide a fantastic multipurpose facility. The main 12 x 9m portal shed accommodates machinery and vehicles, and includes a workshop area, tack room, laundry, shower, vanity and toilet with a 3 x 1.5m mezzanine storage loft above. The adjacent connecting 12 x 6m high clearance shed opens via 4m high clearance twin hangar doors, ready to accommodate your horse truck, high clearance machinery or helicopter. An additional 9 x 6m skillion to the north of the shed offers a further multipurpose area, ideal for stables.
For the equestrian enthusiasts there is an engineered 60 x 20m flood lit sand dressage arena with mirrors, 15m round yard and double wash bay that is perfectly complemented by the tack and feed rooms in the multipurpose shed.
Running across the gentle undulations of the 40 acre property is the tree lined Meringandan creek, adding to the natural appeal. Five fully fenced pasture improved grazing paddocks make this property ready for horses, cattle or the livestock of your choice.

Ducted reverse cycle air conditioning throughout the home with combustion wood heater in the living area
