Here is a home that offers an idyllic country lifestyle with a wide-open, panoramic view of grasslands and nearby water ecosystem, minutes walk from the centre of Ingham where all shopping conveniences are available.
The home faces east and is built in a Queenslander style capturing the cool sea breezes that sweep through each afternoon.
This traditional quarter acre block has room for a chicken coop and a vegetable garden in the back yard which has produced numerous varieties of garden-to-table produce over the years. A separate fully lock-up shed with roller door makes for an excellent workshop or third garage for extra family cars.
This fully air-conditioned, and roof-insulated home would suit a family offering comfortable upstairs living of well-proportioned rooms including, 3 bedrooms, a study/activities/sewing room, laundry with upstairs Hills Hoist mounted on a concrete walkway, separate bathroom and toilet, lounge room, formal dining area or sitting room and a functional kitchen incorporating the family meals area. Four split-system air-conditioners allow for section cooling of the house to suit individual needs.
The home is fitted with a chair lift to allow easy access between upstairs and downstairs.
The fully-lockable downstairs area has a concrete floor and is well appointed with a basic cooking area and sink set up for barbecues, cleaning and cooking your freshly-caught fish. A shower and toilet and separate room that can be a bedroom, day sleeping room or can be converted into a teenage retreat and TV room complete the downstairs inclusions. There is plenty of room under the house for large gatherings and barbecues, all fully enclosed out of the weather or pull up the roller doors and open the windows and let the breezes create an outdoor feeling under cover.
A smaller room attached to the downstairs of the house allows for storage of numerous goods, including large items such as paddle boards, scooters, motorbikes and more.
Two cars or car and trailer are well-housed in the drive-in garage under the house.
There is vehicular access to the backyard and boating enthusiasts can store a larger boat beside the house. Low lying boats and trailers can be stored in the lock-up downstairs area.
The house is connected to mains water and electricity, but an additional tank is installed with motorised pump for all-year rainwater access.
Built in 1962, this home has celebrated many family milestones and welcomed numerous friends and family over the years. The owner built the home for his wife and raised his family here over many happy years. It's now time to hand over the keys to a new family to create its own new and treasured memories.
The home comes as vacant possession and is ready for the new owners to move in.
