A special feature at the back of this lovely home is the Stain glass, and enormous (14m x 4m = 56m2) all-weather verandah, overlooking the hinterland and the uplifting views down the valley to Brisbane; low maintenance aluminum multi fold louvers allow easy control of the elements. This large living and entertaining space includes a heated 5-person spa-pool with off peak electric heating and a reticulated gas BBQ connection and wired sound for music to the verandah. These are spaces made for real outdoor living, just the way our great-grandparents meant them to be. Maybe lots of cane furniture for those dreamy outdoor relaxing spaces. You can be sure that this is where you, your family and friends will spend much of your time, sipping your champagne in the spa, on the large back verandah as you take in breath-taking spectacular sunsets, western mountain views over the Flinders Peak and up to Brisbane and the night lights. Once seen, never forgotten!

THE HIDDEN POSSIBILITIES
One hectare (10,000m2) the home only takes up a small portion of this area.
You have a large back yard on a lower level down a shared driveway.
This is a large area with trees and rocks. The rocks you may be able to use for your own landscaping with help from one of our local boys with earth moving equipment. And a little clearing you can make an elegant place to relax. Keep fit and create a larger English garden, vegetable patch, orchard, chickens, room for a pony,
Whatever the budget can afford!
