Clearly one of the Hinterland Range's most beautiful properties with sweeping views across the Sunshine Coast coastline, this distinguished residence designed for lifestyle, is set magnificently within lush established gardens, occupying a unique and private 8.5acre (3.44ha) holding. Nestled privately into an elevated location high within the Bald Knob range, this relaxing retreat holds a commanding position with spectacular and uninterrupted views over the undulating valleys, through to the coastline beyond. Positioned in the highly desirable eastern precinct and an easy 10 minute drive to the vibrant hinterland town of Maleny, this home is an absolute hidden treasure. Sure to impress on entry, the all-weather entrance is lined with Tropical Birch and majestic Fig trees, drawing your eye to the lush green spaces and bespoke dry rock walls setting the scene for the home beyond. Once inside, it is apparent that the views form an integral part of the home's internal design, with every window positioned to provide wonderful garden and long-range views throughout. Welcoming wide verandas, synonymous with Queensland living, and an entry foyer introduce you to this character filled home. A country style kitchen lies at the heart, complete with a bespoke and oversized island bench and pendant lights. Appointed with quality appliances and plentiful storage, the seamless flow from kitchen to ample dining will please the entertainer within you. An expansive lounge with wood heater and adjacent sitting room are perfectly designed to bring the stunning environment close and benefit from an outstanding north-easterly orientation. Timber floors and generous proportions provide a luxurious sense of space, enhanced by the use of soaring cathedral ceilings, extensive window glazing, abundant natural light and a veritable wall of French doors, inviting you out onto the oversized deck and covered terrace. Generous living is consistent throughout the home with four privately zoned bedrooms and three bathrooms, supported by an abundance of storage. For those who work or create from home, you're spoilt for inspired space – there's a separate study with a customised desk and bookshelf and direct access to the veranda; and add to that, a detached loft studio with sleeping space ready for you or family members to retreat.
