Set high on 4.66 hectares of untouched forest, this majestic Queenslander began life in the leafy Brisbane suburb of Graceville before being relocated to a beautiful private pocket in the Eudlo hinterland. What you get is the best of both worlds. A home with genuine period soul, and a setting that feels a hundred miles from anywhere.
Inside, hoop pine and hardwood floors run underfoot, ceilings lift high above you, and antique light fittings and stained glass windows catch the afternoon sun. Timber and glass doors open the home up to the trees on every side. Light pours in, the forest and Churinga Valley fill every window, and the whole place has that calm, unhurried feel that only an old Queenslander seems to manage.
The kitchen has been fully renovated in a classic Hamptons style, bringing a fresh, bright heart to the home without losing an ounce of its character. Two generous living areas mean everyone has somewhere to spread out, and the spacious main bedroom with ensuite opens onto a north-east facing deck. Morning coffee out there, with the mist still sitting in the gully, is worth the move on its own.
Then there's the deck. An expansive entertaining area anchored by a horizon edge saltwater pool, with the forest rising straight up behind it. It comfortably handles the biggest gathering you can throw at it, and just as happily handles a quiet Sunday with nobody but the birds for company.
Speaking of which, more than 120 bird species have been recorded in the surrounding bush, and pademelons are regular visitors to the rainforest creek gullies. The terraced areas around the house are cleared and easy to maintain, with established vegetable beds and a watering system beside the front deck.
This is also a genuinely sustainable home. Large rainwater storage tanks, an environmentally friendly and low maintenance Biocycle waste system, an ultra efficient heat pump hot water service, and a 5.5kW solar system with inverter. Add air conditioning, ceiling insulation and ceiling fans, a workshop with power and water under the house, and a wireless NBN connection, and the practical side is very well covered.
For all its seclusion, the position is remarkably convenient. Around 3 minutes to Eudlo railway station, 4 minutes to Palmwoods, 12 minutes to the M1, and roughly 25 minutes to the beaches and Sunshine Coast University Hospital.
Homes like this, on land like this, in a position like this, are not something the hinterland produces often. The current owners have loved and cared for it beautifully, and are now ready to hand it on as they begin a new chapter.
