Overview

This well-maintained chamfer home is nestled on an expansive 5.82 hectare (14.55 acres) parcel in Fordsdale, presenting an appealing rural lifestyle combined with water security and functional improvements. The property benefits from its tranquil creek frontage and scenic views over the nearby cliffs, creating a serene environment that complements the spacious living it affords.

The home itself comprises two bedrooms, augmented by a large sunroom that offers the versatility to be converted into a third bedroom, accommodating growing family needs or guest hosting. Generous living spaces within the residence promote comfortable country living, making the home inviting and practical.

Water security is a standout feature, with a bore delivering approximately 400 gallons to a 2,000 gallon tank, alongside four additional 5,000 gallon rainwater tanks. The option to pump water directly from the creek further enhances the property’s value, supporting diverse uses including domestic consumption and small scale agricultural endeavors.

The established improvements include a substantial 11m x 16m shed equipped with kitchen and bathroom facilities, plus a 6m x 9m double lock-up garage. A combination of older sheds and secure fencing support a variety of rural activities, offering flexibility for livestock, equipment storage, or hobby farming.

Furthermore, the tenant enjoys access to an adjoining reserve of approximately eight acres, expanding the outdoor space available for recreation, grazing or other pursuits that benefit from larger acreage. Located within reasonable driving distance to Gatton (25 minutes) and Toowoomba (40 minutes), the property strikes a practical balance between country seclusion and convenient access to urban amenities.

This property appeals to those seeking an affordable rural lifestyle with potential for cattle or horse farming, secure water resources, and substantial shedding. The combination of land size, infrastructural improvements, and peaceful setting makes it a compelling option for buyers looking to embrace country living without foregoing comfort or functionality.
