A rare opportunity to join the ranks of the privileged few living on waterfront acreage near the booming seaside town of Hervey Bay. This character-filled Queenslander has been lovingly restored with a stylish new kitchen and bathroom, and a huge new entertaining deck overlooking Fraser Island. This magic waterfront residence is set privately on 2.5 acres of manicured grounds with direct access into the Great Sandy Straits from a tidal boat ramp 100m from the front door. The master bedroom, living and dining areas, and kitchen all feature spectacular uninterrupted water views, and native wildlife is on show from every window all the time!
The joy of living in a quiet sought-after cul-de-sac can not be overstated. The privacy and tranquility of this stunning home is assured by being positioned forward on the block well away from any neighbours, and it is located on a no-through avenue with an absolute minimum of traffic. The entire suburb is zoned rural residential with set minimum land sizes, meaning you will never have to worry about an influx of small land and house developments..
From the moment you drive through the gates there is an air of expectancy - the home cannot be seen until you pass through the mature trees and small fruit grove. Once out into the open, you catch glimpses and a taste of what is to come upon entering the home. The home is perfectly positioned to catch the Summer breezes, and the plentiful windows that come with Queenslanders mean no air-conditioning is needed! In Winter, the northern sun beautifully warms the second living area adjoining the kitchen.
The property features a large shed (that was used as an aircraft hangar for the seaplane belonging to a previous owner). The land is mostly flat from the road to the house and then gently slopes down to the water's edge with many wide open spaces leaving plenty of room for the addition of a swimming pool, croquet court, cricket pitch AND a tennis court.
The dwelling is a Queenslander style, built about 1932. It has 4 bedrooms and an office and a family/craft/ breakfast area off the kitchen. The wide hallway (separating the lounge/dining from the bedrooms) doubles as a library. There is a large walk-in pantry, and a large laundry with its own drying deck.
It has bore water for the lawn and 80,000l rain water tanks. Solar power.
10 minutes to the airport, and 15 minutes to Main Street.
A nature lovers paradise - kangaroos lie around relaxing in the shade or amuse the owners at evening drinks on the verandah. The bird life is almost unbelievable - eagles, herons, spoonbills, corellas, ducks, kookaburras, lorikeets, spangled drongos, and the list goes on.
Blessed with the luxury of so much space unbelievable expansive water and island views, a perfect easterly aspect, and one of only 6 waterfront homes in this much-coveted street, this property is the jewel in the crown.
