Barellan, which means ‘meeting of the waters’, is one of the most exclusive and prestigious rural properties in Queensland and arguably the best situated.
Perfectly located in Noosa allowing easy access to the World famous Hastings Street with all its cafes, restaurants and boutiques and Laguna bay just 15 mins to the east, 5 mins north to the bustling country town of Cooroy (home of the butter factory) or visit the renowned Eumundi markets in less than 12 mins.
Set on a magnificent and private isthmus of 20 gently undulating hectares surrounded by the fresh blue waters of Lake Macdonald – giving complete privacy like living on your own island.
Barellan’s primary residence is a beautifully restored historic Queenslander (circa 1900) with three metre fully lined verandas all round, there is a separate matching guest cottage both have exquisite pressed metal ceilings and hoop pine floors.
The property and residence shares 360 degree views of the lake across to the mountains of the hinterland (Mt Cooroy, Mt Cooroora and Mt Tinbeerwah). Views that are protected forever. Barellan’s forests and glens are home to an abundance of wildlife with Lake Macdonald itself a designated waterbird sanctuary – teeming with wild duck, water hens, black swans, pelicans, magpie geese and sea eagles. The Lake is teaming full of bass, yellow belly, saratoga and the endangered Mary river cod. The property boasts kilometres of walking/riding tracks, boardwalks and bridges which provide meandering access to the entire lakefront – this truly is a private sanctuary and priceless investment for the future.
