Lochie & Chan welcome you to 29 Echo Valley Road, Preston.
Acreage on the doorstep of Middle Ridge almost never reaches the market. Here you have 49 private acres of bushland with eastern escarpment views, yet you're 12 to 15 minutes from the Toowoomba CBD and 8 minutes from Toowoomba Plaza. Properties offering this much land, this close, simply do not come up often.
At its heart sits a beautifully restored Queenslander. Soaring 3.4 metre ceilings, VJ panelling and polished timber floors carry the character, while the wide wrap-around verandah invites slow mornings and long afternoons. The rear deck flows off a generous living area, made for entertaining or simply watching the bush change with the seasons.
The French provincial kitchen is a showpiece: 60mm stone benchtops, a 90cm ILVE oven, gas cooktop and feature cabinetry, all with an eastern outlook. The breakfast nook catches the sunrise, easily the best coffee spot in the house.
The master retreat delivers a walk-in robe and his and hers ensuite, a level of comfort downsizers and tree-changers refuse to give up.
Then there's the opportunity most acreage can't offer. A second driveway leads to an elevated top block on the same title, a natural site for a second dwelling with views (STCA). Dual living for family, guest accommodation, or a future build: the choice is yours.
With 100,000 litres of rainwater storage, established gardens, fruit trees and fantastic shed, the property runs on its own terms. No water bills, no compromise.
