Setting the scene: If you're looking for your own slice of Heaven after retirement, or thinking of a tree change, or seeking small acreage living, or wanting a bit of 'the good life' for your family, then this property should be inspected without delay. Where else in our beautiful State can you find a grand, old Queenslander that's set in a vibrant, rural community complete with real country hospitality, a general store, regional agricultural show, produce store, Friday night drinks at the showground bar, pony club, its very own historic cemetery and heritage listed Church, annual cultural events (The Ball, The Opera, The Long Lunch, sheep dog trials), and so much more, just 10 minutes from urban Kenmore, and 27 minutes from Brisbane's CBD. When you come to Brookfield and visit Benobble Homestead, it'll be a bit like visiting the set of A Country Practice! History: Benobble Homestead was built around the turn of the 20th century and was originally a dairy farm-house located in the Albert River District of the Gold Coast Hinterland, close to historic Canungra. The farm was sold to Queensland coal mining magnate and entrepreneur, Nathan Tinkler to make way for his thoroughbred horse racing enterprise, Patinack Farm. The relocation project commenced in 2006. The prime, hill-side, and north-facing site was chosen for its commanding, elevated position ensuring the home would always have panoramic and uninterrupted views of the hills, valleys, and surrounding landscapes. Post Restoration: Today, we see the residence has the perfect blend of traditional, formal and informal living spaces, perfect for everyday family living or any entertaining occasion. Special mention needs to be made of the impressively wide verandas which are integral to the home's overall functionality and personality - this is where you'll celebrate those special family events, entertain guests, take photos of the kids dressed in their Year 12 formal finery, or maybe supervise Easter egg hunts in the gardens below when they're still little. Benobble Homestead has seen impressive gardens flourish, a wide variety of wildlife welcomed and protected, children grow and fly the nest, ponies ridden, outdoors explored, parties and events hosted, wondrous projects undertaken in the work shed, and many happy times shared by friends, family and neighbours. Everyone marvels at the rural views by day, and the celestial views by night, time to buy a telescope! Everyone relishes the tranquillity, no-one at all misses the traffic or hustle, bustle of the suburbs, and all are pleased to have had the opportunity to have known, or visited, this beautiful home. The Grounds: The extensive grounds have been cultivated and maintained with love and care, and feature a wide variety of native trees, shrubs and plants to attract native birds and wildlife that feed and wander through the property. There are walkways, lawns, and special hidey places, all of which are essential to this home's story. Grown-ups will love it, and children will be captivated by it . . . race down the hills on sheets of cardboard, catch tadpoles in the ephemeral wetland dam, or roast marsh mellows in the natural fire-pit, let the adventures and games begin! Infrastructure: The practically-minded and safety conscious owners have installed many features, appliances, and services to ensure the property is well equipped, and self-sustainably independent as possible (see below). Of importance, a meticulous approach to the property's up-keep over the years has ensured it always presents beautifully and functions perfectly.
