Set well back from Ballinger Road, this bushland retreat on 8,119sqm reveals itself only at the bend in the driveway and feels removed from the town centre it sits in. Kangaroos, echidnas and native birdlife share the grounds, traffic noise barely reaches the house, and shops, schools and medical services are minutes away. A lift and internal access link the two levels, so extended family or guests have their own space downstairs.
The upper level is the heart of the home. Four bedrooms all have built-in robes, and the main suite adds a walk-in robe and ensuite. Open living and dining are warmed by a wood fire, with a separate kitchen alongside, and a verandah wraps the level overlooking the bush. The main bathroom has been adapted for disability access. Downstairs adds a living area, kitchenette, bathroom and two further rooms. Freshly painted and carpeted, the home has functional kitchens and bathrooms that leave scope to update to personal taste.
Outdoor living is a major part of the appeal. A covered deck suits entertaining in any weather, timber decking leads through the gardens to the pool, and large lawns give plenty of space to play. The fertile grounds leave room for vegetable gardens, fruit trees or chickens, with the lawns still intact. The 6.6m by 12m shed has been used as a car restoration workshop and is suitable for boats, trailers, hobbies or trade storage.
Premium schooling is on the doorstep, with Matthew Flinders Anglican College around the corner and Siena Catholic College, Immanuel Lutheran College and Sunshine Coast Grammar School a short drive away. Mooloolaba's beaches are nearby, and easy access to the Sunshine Motorway opens up the wider coast and Brisbane.
