Outstanding opportunity to buy a character home in the Noosa Hinterland with the added benefit of an income from an established nursery business, shop and gallery, and a huge potential for expansion.

Located close to Boreen Point on the banks of Lake Cootharaba, this large 44 acre property has the exceptional 390m frontage onto Louis Bazzo Drive, which provides the ideal positioning to publicize the business and secure all the local and tourist passing trade.

This prime fertile acreage has a newly fenced 20 acre grazing paddock with a large dam providing all the necessary watering needs. Screened by well established trees, the remaining cleared land has been apportioned to two homes and a business with an established stock of palms at various stages of maturity planted throughout.

Surrounded by a fully fenced tropical garden, this impressive old Queenslander sits centrally on the site; it has been modernised and upgraded, but still retains all those traditional classic features and, more noticeably that true charm you come to expect. There is an abundance of polished timber floors, cornices, ceiling roses, picture rails and moulded architraves; it is in excellent condition. There are 3 bedrooms, the master with bay window, Georgian openers, and air conditioning. The main bathroom has bath, shower and single hand basin, and there is a separate toilet.

The country kitchen has a fusion of old and new influences, and has ample cupboard space. The lounge and dining space is impressive and the architraves provide the division within the open plan space. There is a home office space as well as a rumpus room opening onto a large partially covered outdoor deck.

There is a separate self-contained flat adjacent to the house, providing two bedrooms, bathroom, separate toilet, kitchen and a living space opening to a paved veranda. Ideal privacy as a teenage retreat, guesthouse or for the extended family. Joining the two homes together is a very large under cover entertaining and living area, giving another option for outdoor living. Both houses are surrounded by mature gardens interspaced with fruit trees, exotic palms planted around winding paths.

With direct access up a driveway off the main road, the nursery is sited about 100 metres from the main house. The business has been operational for many years and the infrastructure is all in place to continue or expand this business. A separate building houses the shop and gallery, and there is a large shade-house for plant sales with stock in situ. There is an additional hothouse for seedlings. The business is well known and customers also purchase established and mature stock from the several planted paddocks. There is a working windmill on site, 2 bores, and a water tank attached to the shop. The 2 massive dams nearby are seldom used for irrigation with enough water supplied to the nursery from the bores and windmill.

Close to the main house is a double garage and there is another large machinery shed that houses all the farm equipment and is big enough for 4 cars. There are some stables attached to the side of this building.

This property has enormous scope for expansion. Currently a private home with nursery, shop and gallery, but it could be so much more, the possibilities can easily be imagined. Equestrian, bed and breakfast, health retreat or just build on what is already well established. The property is elevated along a ridgeline with gentle undulation into the paddocks and is all easily worked and accessible, and does not flood and enjoys the coastal breezes. There is plenty of water with 3 big dams; 3 water tanks; 2 working bores and a windmill with water supplies far exceeding any demand.
