Nestled well back from the road on 10.35 acres of low maintenance land, this privately positioned storybook home is bursting with charm and a sense of quiet contentment.
Built in 1972 from 7,200 adobe mud cement bricks hand pressed on-site, the home enjoys natural insulation and cross-flow ventilation, complemented by an eclectic mix of timber-framed French doors and casement windows with coloured glass detail opening to wide verandahs on three sides.
Exquisite solid hardwood parquetry floors flow through the living areas, with a wood-fired combustion heater warming the dining space and an open fireplace adding ambience to the lounge. The solid timber kitchen combines generous storage with stainless steel benchtops, a dishwasher and an island bench with induction cooktop, complemented by a walk-in butler's pantry with wine storage and an additional sink.
Sliding hardwood-framed glass doors connect the kitchen and living space to a paved alfresco dining area beneath a canopy of mature Jacaranda, Gordonia and a Golden Raintree tree, home to more than 50 Staghorns. Beyond, a sparkling saltwater pool completes this idyllic outdoor setting.
The upstairs master bedroom has a romantic colonial feel, with matching stained-glass window bays, soaring timber ceilings and hardwood floors.
Adding to the home's character, the main bathroom pairs an atrium-style outlook with a walk-in shower, clawfoot bath and carved stone basin.
Outside, expansive lawns offer plenty of room for children and pets to play, while a rainforest walking loop leads to a large spring-fed dam, with a piped irrigation line to the house gardens.
Just 5 mins to Eumundi village, 5 mins the Bruce Hwy and 20 mins to Noosa, this property is conveniently located a short distance to a large variety of shops, restaurants and quality schools.
