This large 5 bedroom highset concrete block home is just 40 minutes from Townsville and 25 minutes from Ayr and is on 2.05 hectares (5.07 acres). The home is surrounded by a lush garden and lawn area with a big shed and workshop setup for entertaining close by. It is meticulously maintained and spacious with the bedrooms, bathroom and laundry upstairs and 2 entertainment areas, roomy kitchen, enclosed garage and 2nd bathroom downstairs.
Upstairs is carpeted apart from the wet areas which are tiled. Three of the bedrooms are very large and are air-conditioned. All have ceiling fans with three opening onto the full length veranda allowing continuous breeze. The central bathroom, large laundry and separate toilet are tiled with the bathroom having a combined spa and shower. Leading off the laundry is a weatherproof patio with view across the farm to Mt Elliott.
Downstairs is all for living with air-conditioning and tiled floors throughout. Two entertainment areas and a converted garage offer plenty of choice for your living and entertainment ideas. The kitchen is huge with laminated benches, heaps of storage space, big cooktop and wall oven. A sunken lounge offers privacy, the converted garage with electric roller door and separate bathroom could be used for any number of uses while the other large open entertainment area would be great for the kids.
The concrete block home is approximately 30 years old and is very well built. The foundations are on an elevated slab supported by loam soil so there are no structural supports going into the cracking clay soil. This has two benefits- no cracking in the concrete and rainfall all runs away from the house.
Outside is equally well setup- a bore with 8ML annual water license is equipped with two Onga pressure pumps supplying the house and garden as well as the mango plantation. The water is in good supply and is of excellent quality. There are approximately 180 KP and 10 R2E2 well maintained mango trees which are normally sold to a local juice buyer. The garden has a variety of shrubs giving privacy as well as a selection of tropical fruits including avocado, banana, orange and lemon. You even have your own private beer garden.
The 8.5m x 12m steel shed has 3 open bays at the front and a big lockable area with concrete floor for your workshop and hideaway. Austar TV, kitchen and shower will make you popular with your mates. Three phase power is connected to the shed and an 8kva diesel generator is connected to the house supply in case of a black out.
Services to the property include bitumen road frontage, weekly rubbish collection and a Primary and Secondary school bus stop. Giru is just 6km away and has a Primary School, Postal Agency, shops, hotel and sugar mill. Two Secondary Schools are in Ayr along with supermarkets, medical facilities and a wide variety of specialty shops.
