Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and embrace the serenity of country living with this charming property idyllically located on usable acreage within the Julatten hinterland. Possessing a unique history dating back to the 1930s, this authentic Queenslander represents quintessential tropical living. The classic front porch and new feature front door frame the entry to the formal entrance - a timeless nod to the elegance of a bygone era with its stunning polished timber floors and extra high ceilings that feature throughout the home. Two of the three bedrooms are accessed directly off this entrance space - one large and one extra large - and both featuring polished floorboards, timber framed casement windows, ceiling fans and built-in storage. The larger of the two also affords new split system air conditioning. The extensive use of natural timber continues into the cosy lounge room that, in addition to the floorboards, also incorporates feature wood panelling on the walls. And for the warmer months, the recently installed ducted air conditioning system will keep you cool and comfortable. Conveniently located off this area is the contemporary family bathroom and separate toilet. While currently offering a shower option only, the bathroom does lend itself to the possibility of adding a period-style claw bath that would really complete the picture. The rear of the home is dedicated to entertaining with its open plan kitchen and dining space that offers the combination of ducted air conditioning and a slow combustion wood heater to ensure your year-round comfort. The large, tiled kitchen offers plenty of storage and bench space along with dual servery windows out to the expansive rear verandah featuring picket-style balustrading, a timber lined ceiling and views out to the mountain ranges in the distance. Those who appreciate their privacy will enjoy the fact that the large air conditioned master bedroom is also located at the rear of the home and includes a secondary room that could lend itself to being a parent's retreat, dressing room, or nursery. Outside, the 5 acres of very useable land is fully fenced with both internal and external fencing up to the rear boundary of natural bushland and the local creek. Adding further natural screening is the 40 metre lillypilly hedge that is irrigated for maximum convenience. The large, high clearance, 3-bay colourbond shed will easily meet the needs of any DIY home handyman while also providing secure storage for mowers, cars, bikes, boats, or whatever else you'd like to send its way. A lean-to off the back of the shed provides additional covered space and complements the double carport attached to the home. A freestanding gazebo, established fruit trees, garden beds, sprawling lawn area and refurbished bore pump complete this very appealing package.
