Gardenvale Cottage, circa 1940, set amongst beautifully established grounds offers a level of peace, privacy and tranquility. Nestled on an elevated 1754m2 block, arguably the largest completely flat parcel of land in Coes Creek; is an original farmhouse, which has been lovingly restored and tastefully blends modern comforts with charming period features to create a property rich in character and warmth.
Despite cottage being part of its namesake; it is actually a substantial sized family home, comprising delightful welcoming entry porch, four bedrooms, study, formal lounge with woodburning fireplace, contemporary kitchen, dining room flowing to wrapround covered deck showcasing elevated northerly views encompassing Mount Ninderry, separate laundry, and single carport.
Hardwood timber floors, casement windows, high ceilings, decorative fretwork, bullnose verandah at entry, and a marble top vanity in the ensuite bathroom originally from iconic "Buderim House"; are features from its era that infuses the home with timeless elegance and appeal.
Split system air-conditioning, ceiling fans, quality stainless steel appliances and stone benches in kitchen, Velux skylight in lounge and ensuite, reverse osmosis water filtration system, 6kW solar power, and 2 x stainless steel rainwater tanks are additional features of note boosting comfort and energy efficiency.
Also featuring: a second structure, lovingly named "The Surf Shack" comprising a carport, shed, workshop, storage room, and air-conditioned studio/office/multipurpose room. This is a fabulous addition to the property providing extra flexibility and space for the growing family, artisan/hobbyist, or home business.
A beautiful, thoughtfully tended garden unfolds with an expansive grassy lawn space for a pool and/or outdoor play, mature trees including Jacarandas (absolutely resplendent when in bloom), native and tropical gardens, extensive variety of fruit trees, vegetable patches, chicken coop for free-range eggs, plus cottage style flowering plants attracting birds, butterflies and bees.
Another extra benefit is dual street access, that is two separate driveways, providing independent access to a potential second dwelling which could be built subject to council approval. The configuration of this block is virtually perfect for this kind of development, if desired.
Just a short drive to local shops, St John's College, Nambour Christian College, hospitals, town amenities including rail; plus 25 minutes to coast beaches, this is private, peaceful living without sacrifice.
Gardenvale Cottage was the original homestead on a 16-acre farm which grew pineapple, beans, and pawpaw. It is steeped in history, and its preservation is outstanding, providing highly functional, beautifully presented, family-friendly living in a glorious sanctuary-like setting.
