We are proud to present a rural lifestyle escape on a gorgeous and secluded 5-acre hideaway at Upper Lockyer. A unique country style home with out-buildings that provide extra accommodation, recreation and outdoor entertaining.
As you approach the property along quiet country roads you will feel the sense of community passing other like-minded home owners set apart on similar sized properties. The home’s construction effortlessly blends in with the landscape, maintaining a natural feel as you enter via the winding driveway and gracious Eucalypts. The Queenslander style home optimises space with north and east facing verandahs allowing the enjoyment of the outdoors all year round.
A spacious family home with large wood burning combustion heater comforts the family during winter and leads to the open plan kitchen and dining areas. This open design makes the most of natural light with large windows and doorways to the verandahs and rear deck. The timeless country kitchen maintains a warm communal flow through the living areas with a choice of dining locations, long bench tops, gas oven and electric hot plates. The graceful ambience continues throughout with a spacious lounge, decorative cornices, large bedrooms, abundant storage cupboards and a walk-in robe in the main bedroom (room for an ensuite). Comfort all year round having 3 split air conditioners and the high set design that catches summer breezes and a vista of views provided by mother nature.

Under the house you’ll find car accommodation, room for hobbies or workshop and an open area that could be easily converted to an extra living space or bedroom. Next to the house there is an unfinished building project consisting of a 2 rooms studio ideal for a teenager, relative or guests retreat. Additional shedding includes a 10m x 6m roller door garage with side door access, power and concrete floor. There are a number of lock up garden sheds, poultry yard, large dam with pump and double carport.
A special feature of this property is the versatility of outdoor entertaining. As well as the verandahs and deck on the house, there is a 7m x 4m purpose built open wall room ideal for an outdoor spa or above ground pool plus a Bali style entertainment and bar enclosure perfect for entertaining guests. There is an adorable brick BBQ and a 6m x 6m shelter attached to the side of the house among the gardens for a quiet cup of tea with friends.
Water for the gardens is supplied from the dam and pumped to a header tank.
