Overview

A Rare 50-Acre Equine Estate Ready for Renewal

Lochie Wagner and Chan De Silva welcome you to 36 Filmers Road, Gowrie Junction - an expansive rural holding combining approximately 50 acres, elevated views, extensive equine infrastructure and multiple accommodation options. Auction, on site - Saturday 19th September at 10am. Set high on the hill with sweeping 180-degree views across the surrounding countryside, the property offers an impressive foundation for horse enthusiasts, industry professionals or acreage buyers seeking substantial infrastructure within easy reach of Toowoomba. This is a property to be approached with clear eyes. The residence, cottage, grounds and supporting infrastructure will require a considerable program of repair, maintenance and rejuvenation. For buyers with the vision and capacity to undertake the work, the opportunity lies in restoring an estate of a scale and capability that would be difficult and costly to recreate from the ground up. The substantial brick residence is approximately 12 years old and has been designed around generous family living. Nine-foot ceilings, insulated walls and ceilings, multiple living areas and a central courtyard provide an expansive layout with considerable scope to update and personalise. At the centre of the home, the kitchen features gas cooking, a dishwasher, double-bowl sink and walk-in pantry with direct access to a cold room. It adjoins the open-plan lounge and dining area, where a fireplace creates a welcoming focal point during the cooler months. Additional living spaces include a separate office, teenagers' retreat and a large games room complete with a built-in bar, cold-room access and a separate toilet. The central courtyard can be reached from several areas of the residence, creating a private and sheltered space for outdoor entertaining. The master suite occupies its own wing and includes a walk-in robe and ensuite with a shower over the spa bath. Four further bedrooms are positioned in a separate wing, each offering its own walk-in robe. The main bathroom includes a separate shower and bath, accompanied by a separate toilet, walk-in linen storage and two laundries. The larger laundry is equipped with built-in cabinetry and generous bench space. Separate from the main residence is a self-contained cottage comprising a combined bedroom and living area, kitchen, bathroom and office. Serviced by its own septic system, it provides flexible accommodation for extended family, guests, staff or an on-site property manager. The equine infrastructure is extensive, with seven stables and a dedicated feed area, a 15-metre round yard, six paddock shelters and fenced yards extending throughout the property. Two of the shelters are double-sized, providing additional flexibility for horses, livestock and equipment. A large covered working area incorporates a horse wash bay, while the full equine swimming pool provides a rarely available facility for conditioning, rehabilitation and recovery at home. Water infrastructure includes a bore drilled approximately 640 feet to sandstone, with the pump positioned at approximately 480 feet and an advised capacity of around 5,000 gallons per hour. Storage comprises approximately 20,000-gallon and 10,000-gallon concrete tanks, a 2,000-gallon poly tank, two additional 1,500-gallon tanks and a large dam on the western side of the property. Vehicle, machinery and equipment accommodation is equally substantial. Improvements include an extra-large drive-through double lock-up garage, high-clearance double carport, two-bay shed, three-bay carport and a seven-bay shed with two roller doors, providing room for trucks, floats, machinery and workshop requirements. A full-size tennis court with night lighting and a rebound wall completes the property's extensive list of lifestyle facilities.
