The home sits comfortably within its established surrounds, with large windows taking in the outlook and bringing the feeling of the acreage into the living spaces. Inside, the layout provides plenty of room for family life, with a generous main living and dining area centred around a fireplace and complemented by reverse cycle air conditioning for year-round comfort. The kitchen sits alongside the living areas and offers plenty of cabinetry and bench space, along with a Smeg oven, gas cooktop and dishwasher. Its outlook across the outdoor areas keeps you connected to the rest of the property.
Outside is where the property really comes into its own. A large entertaining gazebo creates an impressive space for hosting family and friends, while the sparkling in-ground swimming pool provides the perfect place to cool off and enjoy the warmer months. Beyond the established gardens surrounding the home, the acreage itself provides the space, privacy and freedom that draws so many people to rural living.
Then there is the shedding - and there is a lot of it! The property includes a substantial 9m x 12m shed with an additional 3m x 12m covered area, a separate 10.4m x 9m shed and a 6.5m x 6m carport. Whether you need room for caravans, trailers, boats, equipment, multiple vehicles or a dedicated space for hobbies and projects, the amount of infrastructure here is a genuine advantage.
Water is another strong feature of the property, with abundant water storage and a bore adding to the practicality of owning nearly five acres. The entire property is fully fenced with stock proof fencing, and boasts four separate paddocks previously used as both a hobby farm, and to keep sheep and horses, giving you the opportunity to make use of the land or simply enjoy the flexibility that comes with having so much space.
Despite its peaceful rural setting, the property remains exceptionally convenient. Gowrie State School is an easy walk away, school bus services are available from the front gate, Toowoomba CBD is approximately 20 minutes from the property, the new Toowoomba Hospital precinct is within easy reach, and the Toowoomba Second Range Crossing provides efficient access towards Brisbane and beyond.
283 Old Homebush Road is a property where the lifestyle and the infrastructure come together. For more information, please contact Matt Hawkins on 0423 120 232 or matt.hawkins@ngurealestate.com.au
