Now this something we all need! A home with no water bills and no electricity bills! How? By having an Eco-friendly, Solar passive, self-sufficient home! One which has 2 water tanks (a total of 32,000 litre capacity) to catch the high rainfall in this mountain location and an architecturally designed home where all the large windows face north to keep you cool in summer and warm in winter as the sunshine is captured and linked to a superbly efficient 6.2KW Solar system. Currently this home has 3 people living here and they currently receive summer electricity rebates of around $120 and winter bills of only around $14. They hardly feel the need to use heating and cooling systems here! Come and see why! Many of the materials used inside the home are environmentally friendly such as recycled timbers and bricks which have been utilised to build doors, walls and benches.

Many of the properties in the rainforest of Springbrook Mountain are of older, timber construction, meaning they need ongoing TLC, but this home is styled with fully insulated maintenance-free Colorbond. Why go through the hassle of building new when this home presents like a show home as it’s only 3 years old!

Located on a large 3,224 M2 block (over acre), you have the benefit of 2 street frontages. You can drive in your front driveway on Ee-Jung Road but also stroll through your garden, over the stone walkway bridge, past your very own running creek with its own small waterfall and take the rear entrance out onto Banksia Road. From here, it’s just a short stroll to Canyon Lookout where you can enjoy panoramic views across the rainforest treetops to the waterfalls and the Gold Coast skyline. This is where you can also discover the start of the Canyon Circuit hiking trail which takes you right down to Twin Falls waterfalls, what an adventure!

There are 2 bedrooms up on the main first floor but also a 3rd bedroom on the ground floor with en-suite and air-conditioning, which could be just perfect for your teenager, the grandparents or that work from home office/studio. There is a reverse cycle air conditioner in place.

If privacy is what you are looking for, you will find it right here, in this quiet cul de sac, surrounded by so many native trees that you will feel like you have the whole mountain to yourself! Being self-sufficient also means living off the land and here you will find a super large, fully stocked vegetable garden, a 2M x 3M garden shed and over 50 fruit trees. There is a commercial grade kitchen where the current owner bakes artisan breads to sell to the locals which you could be re-registered in the new owners’ names. If you feel you need more living space, you will be delighted to know that the rear timber entertaining deck has been engineered to be enclosed at your desire to provide you with space for an extra family rumpus area/dining room.

You can relax here and enjoy the stunning green rainforest surroundings and absolute privacy as well as regular visits from the beautiful wildlife including kookaburras, lorikeets, king parrots, possums, bush turkeys and pademelons (small like kangaroos).

Come and make Springbrook your home, where you can breathe in the fresh mountain air and quietly relax away from the hustle and bustle of the city or you can choose to be actively involved in the local community groups such as gardening, yoga, meditation, arts and crafts, the Men’s Shed and many more! Springbrook has a junior school and buses to take the older students down to many of the high schools. There are many roadside stalls to purchase your organic goods, a community hall, tennis courts, children’s playground, cafes and a pub. Woolworths will even deliver your groceries, or you are just a 25 min drive to Mudgeeraba Village township or 35 mins to Nerang town centre, railway station and M1 motorway entrance. The famous Gold Coast surf beaches or Coolangatta airport can be reached within around 40 mins.
