This property was once a part of a much larger banana farm, so a lot of the property was cleared. As it stands now, the current owners have cleared paddocks used for cattle, but there is also more area that could be paddocked off depending on how many horses or cattle you wish to have. There are drive-able tracks so that you can access almost all of the property, and it is well worth exploring. At one edge you have caves that do have some historical relevance through to some lush rain forest that protects a natural watercourse and a range of landscape in between.
The house has been positioned on the block so that it takes in great lush green views across to the Montville range. Views like the one you get from both the upper deck and the large wrap around deck that comes off the living area are very rare. Other than two houses way off in the distance, all you have is bush land, and this makes it look like you own half of the Sunshine Coast. Another unique feature of the property is that it is completely off the grid! There are enough solar panels and storage batteries to supply power to the house for three days of no sunlight (not that this would ever happen, but it is comforting to know). It also means that you don’t need to worry about electricity bills, blackouts or have to be conscious of how long the kids are on the computer or watching TV. If you would like the comfort of having mains power, this can be accommodated as there is power from the street.
The house is very warm and homely – the hardwood timber floors, fireplace and rustic styling that includes things like a claw foot bath really do help add to this charm. The kids have their own level upstairs that includes three large bedrooms, bathroom and entertaining area that also incorporates a deck that takes in the great views. On the main living level, you have the master bedroom with walk-in wardrobe that is big enough to be another bedroom and ensuite, large family and dining room, kitchen and laundry. You also have the great entertaining deck that wraps around the view side of the house. On the third level, you have undercover car parking for four cars and a storage room that has a wine cellar positioned in the middle of the home for more consistent temperature.
To live in such a quiet area and yet be less than 5kms from Mooloolah Township, and less than 4kms from Eudlo makes what should be a remote property very handy to anything you need. With so much to offer including sheds and fruit orchards, this is a property you need to set some time aside for so that you can really take it all in.
