Circa 1886, ‘Highgrove’ epitomises the old world charm and character many buyers seek but rarely find, especially on the Sunshine Coast. This beautifully restored Queensland home showcases all the authentic characteristics that endear us to this style of home, and make them so warm, welcoming and timeless in their appeal.

Complete with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, an elegant separate formal lounge and regal dining room, huge kitchen, rear alfresco entertaining deck with weatherproof screens and magical views over Baroon Pocket Dam, on a gorgeous one acre block with macadamia trees, aromatic plants and a variety of fruit trees, double carport and two entrances; this home is a delight in every sense.

The kitchen overlooks the rear covered deck and beyond to Baroon Pocket Dam, and is fully equipped with stone benches, wall oven, ceramic cooktop, dishwasher, and a huge amount of storage; with white timber cabinetry it is fresh and bright and would be a wonderful space to prepare meals.

Features such as high ceilings, ornate fretwork, VJ walls, ceiling roses, French doors, hardwood timber floors, brand new combustion fire, along with outdoor electric fire on deck; all work in synchronicity to enhance appeal, charm and the promote the overall inviting ambience. Other features include air-conditioning, locks on every door and window, back to base security and a 10,000 gallon water tank.

Two of the bedrooms are at the front of the house, both double sized with a dressing room area adjacent, and the master bedroom has an ensuite with a claw foot bath which is just like something out of the pages of a glossy magazine…can you envisage yourself immersed in bubbles with a glass of wine, soaking up not only the steaming water but the peace and tranquillity of your surrounds? Yes?

The third bedroom and bathroom is in a cosy attic above the double carport with raked ceilings and stunning lake views, this would be a wonderful guest retreat…only, they will never want to leave! In fact, there are existing plans for an extension to the home available to anyone interested…the owners also have some spare casement windows and awnings under the house, so the integrity of the extension is preserved.

Outside, the home is nestled below the road and totally screened by a lush, flowering garden full of vibrant colours and pleasant aromas. The land is gently sloping and quite low maintenance, all the vegetation is well established, just a bit of pruning and a run around on the ride on mower is all that’s required.

Western Avenue is Montville’s finest street, showcasing prestige homes on acreage, of the highest calibre. Only minutes from Montville village and its boutique shopping and dining, and less than ten minutes to the larger town of Maleny with many amenities, everything you need is easily accessed.

The owners have kept this property in pristine condition and have stayed true to the era and essence of the design. Inspect and fall in love.
