Graham Lynham is proud to present to the market one of Oak Valley’s best kept secrets!
Situated just of the Flinders Highway less than 15 minutes from the city lies one of Townsville’s last remaining rural settings.
This beautifully kept home sits in the middle of what could be best described as a flora and fauna reserve.
Planned by the previous owner to attract the abundant wild life of the area, the home sits well off the street beside a seasonal creek. Privacy is assured with over 200 native trees covering any hint of what lies within from Benalla Road – with only a hint of the “Healthy Habitat” shingle that’s hangs on the front fence.
Once you enter the long driveway, you will met by the breezes which flow all year round through the natives, including the ever so proud gums.
At the front of the home you are met with an entry to a large sitting room which flows though to the formal lounge.
This also offers access to a formal office or additional entertaining area for a title does serve justice to the size. This area could easily be converted to another bedroom and still have enough space to meet the demands of a study.
The home features two formal bedrooms, the main with a modern en suite and walk in robe.
The home, recently freshly painted externally boasts a modern kitchen which serves a dining room and family room which opens onto the patio.
The large patio sweeps down the side and to the rear of the property and offers additional entertaining areas as well as ensuring the home stays cool.
There is undercover parking space for two to three cars.
Complimenting the main residence is a fully self contained granny flat with kitchen and separate shower and toilet. Again the unit is well maintained.
The owners have fenced the allotment to provide a rear yard for livestock.
There are three garden sheds as well undercover nursery area.
A block this large could not be kept green without bore water, and being the main water source for many years prior to connection of town water, the supply is excellent in both quality and amount. Complimenting the town and bore water are three rainwater tanks.
Solar heating and electricity are installed.
It’s very hard not appreciate a home of this style without walking the block. it’s only then do you appreciate the natural beauty of the area, the serene environment offered by the local fauna and flora, and opportunity the 5 acre allotment offers for further improvement.
The current owners are downsizing, and are certainly torn as there motivation to leave the property – such is the connection it offers with it inhabitants.
And it is so easy to see why it has earned the “Healthy Habitat” membership.
