Overview

This exceptional property offers a rare opportunity for those seeking true independence and flexibility within a large acreage setting. Situated on an expansive 1.22 hectare block, the estate comprises two fully council-approved, separate cottages, ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodation or running a home business while maintaining privacy and autonomy.

The main cottage combines modern comfort with character, featuring two well-sized bedrooms alongside a versatile third room adaptable as a nursery, study or dedicated workspace. The interiors showcase a seamless living and dining area complemented by a brand new kitchen equipped with stone benchtops and full gas cooking appliances. Enhancing the appeal is a freshly renovated bathroom highlighting a freestanding bath and quality finishes. Outdoors, a generously proportioned covered entertaining space incorporates an outdoor spa and retractable awning, creating a sanctuary for relaxation and social gatherings.

The second cottage is a completely detached, self-contained retreat offering an ideal private haven for grandparents, adult children, or long-term guests. Its thoughtful layout includes a spacious bedroom with ensuite, a kitchen-dining-lounge area, and a sunroom that functions beautifully as a peaceful reading nook or additional living space, complemented by a compact timber deck with scenic rural views.

The gently sloping land is well-suited to equestrian pursuits or hobby farming, featuring four paddocks, a round yard, and a horse float shelter. Direct access to the Noosa Trail Network enables seamless exploration of miles of hinterland riding and walking trails without gates or restrictions. Established gardens, a chicken coop, and multiple fruit trees enhance the rural lifestyle, providing both beauty and productivity.

Practical infrastructure is of a high standard, with a three-bay carport accommodating larger vehicles such as boats and caravans, additional parking, and a robust storage solution in the form of a shipping container with a flyover roof. Water security is assured through a brand new submersible bore and a 40-foot deep spring-fed dam. Furthermore, the property benefits from a 5kW solar power system and a direct fibre optic NBN connection, ensuring future-proof technology and energy efficiency.

This property’s versatility makes it attractive for buyers looking to comfortably accommodate two generations, generate lifestyle income through rentals, or develop a new primary residence while enjoying immediate quality living. Its prized hinterland location enhances lifestyle opportunities while offering practicality and privacy on a generous scale.
