Located in the Lockyer Valley, 1 hour west of Brisbane, and just 10 minutes from Gatton, this stunning and well-maintained grazing property boasts unsurpassed views to the
surrounding mountain ranges, excellent quality grazing land and considerable water reservoirs including 4 dams totaling approximately 7 mega litres.
Truthfully renovated, the expansive home is perfectly situated—tucked into the crest of the hill with a north-easterly aspect overlooking valleys and ranges in an 180 degree arc. Four metre verandahs wrap around two sides of the home to provide an elevated position from which to gaze at the rugged hills and architecturally-landscaped gardens, enjoy the summer breezes and dine al fresco.
Step inside to appreciate the historic charm the home presents, with 3 rooms dating back approximately 130 years, and well appointed additions including the large family room great for formal dining or family Christmas. With country scenes at every window, polished timber floors, spacious timber kitchen with wood-fired stove, 3 large bedrooms plus a sleepout, central lounge, family room and 2 bathrooms, the homestead is perfect for even the larger family, or great for accommodating guests. There is a separate office or storeroom which can double as a teenagers’ retreat, and the property also has significant outbuildings including a pottery shed or workshop with power, old dairy and 3 bay machinery shed with 3 phase power and hoist.
The property currently runs cattle on the undulating paddocks and has been fully re fenced at every boundary with 4 strand barbed wire fencing. It is separated into 2 paddocks each serviced by at least one dam and access tracks. Water for the home derives from tanks, while the beautifully landscaped house gardens with irrigation system and stock are watered from the picturesque 5 meg dam that is equipped with a fire-fighter petrol pump.
From the welcoming shade of the Moreton Bay Fig Tree to the excellent quality grazing, well designed and maintained residence with inherent historic charm and elevated view over the scenic Lockyer Valley, this property is suited to people wanting a relaxed rural lifestyle with acres of space and contentment!
