Watch the sun set over Cooroy Mountain from the expansive decks of this peaceful and private two-storey family home.
Located on 1.5 acres in the sought-after Rafter Country Estate, the property features a 7x4m saltwater pool, a shed big enough to park boats and caravans, and a fantastic studio or dual living space.
Situated between Eumundi and Doonan, and just a 15-minute drive to Noosa, it offers the best of tranquil hinterland living within an easy drive of top schools, shops and restaurants.
With four spacious bedrooms, three bathrooms, two living areas and beautiful covered entertaining spaces, the property provides ample space to accommodate the whole family.
The lock-up stage studio, meanwhile, has its own access, providing a blank canvas for buyers to create the perfect work-from-home office, dual living opportunity, guest accommodation or teen retreat.
This north-facing home has been meticulously maintained. At its heart is an open plan living area with modern kitchen featuring a sit-up island, stainless appliances, ceramic hob, wall oven and butler's pantry/laundry. The light-filled family dining room and adjoining living room flow out to a large covered al fresco area with BBQ - the perfect spot to entertain.
From here, you can step down into the impressive pool area or pull up a chair and soak in the serenity from the wide shaded verandah stretching the length of the house.
Also on the ground level is a queen bedroom with ensuite bathroom and walk-in robe, a separate powder room, a remote double garage and an office with lovely outlook.
Upstairs, the huge master bedroom is serviced by a walk-in wardrobe and a contemporary ensuite with double-sink vanity, shower and bath. There are two more big bedrooms, a walk-in laundry store and a family bathroom here, while an additional living space means the kids can have their own chill-out zone. All the upstairs bedrooms offer views and lead out to the covered verandah.
The home's elevated position allows it to maximise the coastal breezes. Additional cooling/heating is ensured through upstairs ducted aircon, flyscreens and ceiling fans. In the winter, the gas-powered fireplace keeps living areas snug while the solar/electric hot water and a 5kW solar power system ensure power bills are minimal.
Outside, fruit trees feature in the established gardens and there is scope for veggie beds and orchards. The 6x9m extra-height shed has its own driveway and has been designed to fit boats, trailers and caravans. The two-room studio, with a solar system set up for off-grid living, has its own access and parking.

Eumundi:
Eumundi is famous for its street markets, which run on a Wednesday and Saturday morning. This beautiful hinterland village, with its strong community spirit and laidback vibe, is a 5-minute drive to the Bruce Highway and a 1.5-hour drive from Brisbane. It offers a mainline train service to the Queensland capital and boasts a well-regarded state primary school. It is also within close proximity to several excellent public and private schools.
