Located at the end of a quiet country road, this property offers all the tranquillity of a rural retreat, super-close to the best of everything the Sunshine Coast has to offer. With 6301m² of near-level land and a character home onsite, the opportunities here are only limited by your imagination. You could renovate, live in it while you build your dream home or knock it down for a blank canvas to develop your vision (STCA).
As rich in history as it is in character, the home was originally the Mooloolah school house. Built from red cedar and transported to the block in the 1980s, it boasts traditional features like VJ walls, stained glass features, and a wood-burning fireplace in the living area. Soaring raked ceilings and casement windows create a light, airy feeling, while a covered verandah wrapping around three sides gives you a choice of spots to relax and enjoy the peace and quiet.
The cute country kitchen has a freestanding gas stove, and the bathroom has a solid timber benchtop. Two of the bedrooms are generous in size and the third would work well as a nursery, spare bedroom, home office or study. Adjacent to the house is a 42m2 powered art studio with a high ceiling, fibre cement sheeting, and tin roof (not council approved). There’s also covered parking for two vehicles, storage space, 3 phase power and 5 kw of solar.
The natural feel of this property is arguably its standout feature. Surrounded by native bush, the lush grounds include areas of parklike lawn, flowering trees and shrubs, tropical plants and rock gardens. People looking to live more sustainably and harvest their own fresh produce will appreciate the peach trees, mulberry trees, macadamia tree, pecan tree, various citrus, apple tree, bay tree, banana, grape vines, and dragon fruit. Plus there are swales in the garden and three raised beds – with organic practices used for 20 years – and a chicken and duck house. A tree-lined dam with a central island is home to abundant local birdlife, and a seasonal creek meanders across the block.
While private and serene, the property is just 10 minutes from Eumundi where you can explore the world-famous markets, sample craft beers or local coffee brews, or just absorb the hip village vibe. Free school buses come right to the property’s boundary. If the coastal atmosphere is more your thing, you’ll be spoiled for choice. Noosa Heads and Sunshine, Peregian, and Coolum beaches are all within an easy 15-minute drive of the doorstep. With its versatility, privacy and excellent proximity to all you need, be quick if you’d like to snap up this picturesque small acreage gem.
