Absolute paradise a world away, yet so close to Gold Coast and Brisbane, the 28.3ha (70 acres) natural bushland property is just a 30 minute drive south of Brisbane. A 1.3 km driveway, following the base of a magnificent escarpment, leads to the main residence. Originally cleared for a dairy farm, remaining pasture land now comfortably accommodates 4 horses, with room for more.
The Australian homestead style house has a recently upgraded solar system, which supplies the entire electrical needs. Stove, refrigerator and hot water are gas powered. Three rainwater tanks supply all water needs. With verandahs all around the house, the atmosphere is uniquely Australian. The main level includes lounge with fireplace, dining room, kitchen, large main bedroom with ensuite, second double bedroom with private bathroom and laundry. The peaceful mezzanine level with views to the waterfall, has enough room to accommodate children or many happy guests. Above the main bedroom, via an access ladder, is a loft with huge storage.
The tranquility and solitude needs to be experienced to be believed. With the property adjoining Plunkett Nature Reserve, there can be no nearby development to destroy the serenity of this natural paradise – a sanctuary for native animals, birds and flora.
To assist in offsetting a possible loan, or to attain extra income, there is a comfortable, fully self-contained cottage with separate double garage (or shed). It is rented at $260 per week. Additionally, a successful propagation nursery operates on the property. This is included in the listed purchase price.
Logan City Council has approved (verbally) the construction of 6 eco-cottages (up to 10 with additional formalities) which could be developed into a fantastic resort or function venue. Horse riding is also permitted in Plunkett Reserve.
We are very keen to sell due to other commitments, so feel free to arrange an inspection.
