Absolute river frontage & beach access at Woodgate Beach.
Located on the coast west of Fraser Island and north of Hervey Bay, Woodgate is now a very desirable holiday and retirement destination for people from many parts of Australia and all over the world. Off the main highway Woodgate it offers safe beaches, a tranquil relaxed lifestyle and ready access to the major commercial centres of Maryborough, Bundaberg, Hervey Bay and Fraser Island.
The proximity to these cities and attractions, coupled with Queensland’s ever growing population plus easy access to Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast assures the future of Woodgate as a blue chip property investment. This property is zoned for future development and plans are availlable for the development opportunity.
The residence is a palatial Queenslander and ready for new owners to move in. Drive the palm lined, private roadway right to the entrance of this majestic, north-east facing, Rod Wagner designed, residence. The easy to care for established lawns and gardens will perform for you on arrival – cycads, bougainvillea, evening jasmine and its alluring scent, palms and jacarandas are just some of the exquisite and colourful plantings.
The position and aspect of this property are perfect. Park your car in one of the 3 security garages and enter the residence by an internal doorway or walk to the two-way steps leading to 3 metre wide verandahs that circumnavigate this masterpiece. There is an entertaining and dining rotunda on the first level with stunning views across the property, the national park, Theodolite Estuary, to Platypus Bay and to the South Pacific Ocean. There are two other inlets nearby, House Creek and Barnes Creek – both teeming with delicious crabs and yabbies!
There is a further BBQ rotunda and party space downstairs. The views across the estuary to the national park and the ocean are simply sensational – cannot be compared to anything else – anywhere! Even the 16m x 8m tiled concrete, salt water chlorinated swimming pool has the same views! The pool is surrounded by huge rocks, cycads, palms and climbing bougainvilleas splash colour across the pool’s fence. You may even catch the resident dragon sunbaking in the sun ….. The resident sea eagle and iguana, the kookaburras and kangaroos and the dingoes and emus certainly love their lifestyle and the abundant birdlife adds colour to the sky each day.
Open the double front doors of rosewood, leadlight and stained glass of local birdlife, including parrots and lorikeet, into the gracious reception area and formal welcoming room and gallery. To the left is the huge open plan living, dining and kitchen area leading through three double doors to the wide timber deckings. Just a few features of this space are the open fire place, polished timber floors, full air conditioning, high ceilings with fans, chef’s kitchen with DeLonghi 5-gas burner stove and dishwasher, an over-sized walk-in pantry, coat/storage cupboards, guest toilet and full bathroom, laundry chute and appliance cupboards. Also on this level is the expansive master bedroom with its own sitting room and an entire wall of built-in wardrobes – all overlooking the gardens, the river and out to the ocean! Simply magnificent …..
Then there is the huge imported tile en suite and full bathroom off the master bedroom, complete with free-standing English bath, 2 separate vanity bars, toilet and an impressive “walk around” shower alcove. Another splendid feature of this level is the magnificently proportioned office and sumptuous gentleman’s sitting room that also lead through two double doors to the extra wide balconies.
Let’s go downstairs to 3 huge bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobes and the master bedroom with its private bureau or sitting room, en suite double spa bathroom of imported tiles, with toilet and shower and plenty of linen storage. The full gymnasium, entrance to the garages, kitchenette, separate full bathroom and toilet shared by 2 bedrooms, laundry and plenty of linen and appliance storage are some further prominent features.
There are 3 large dams hidden away in the trees and the 30,000 gallons of underground tank water adjacent to the residence means water is plentiful all year round.
Platypus Bay and Woodgate Beach (also known as Hervey Bay) are protected by Fraser Island in the distance and the gentle sea breezes in the warmer months are a constant reminder of your paradisical surroundings. The beaches are known to be some of the cleanest on the east coast of Australia. There is shopping, bars and restaurants, an easy to use boat ramp and lots more. This is a place to take off your suit, pop on your favourite tee-shirt and shorts and walk, fish or, simply, kick back and relax.
This is the ultimate lifestyle ….. a lifestyle of luxury, peace and privacy in your own world – surrounded by natural beauty. An adventure and an investment!
