Weekend mornings on the deck. Kids in the pool by lunch. A fire crackling in the lounge on a cool winter night. This is the Mooloolah Valley lifestyle, and it starts two minutes from the village.
Set on 3,582m² of elevated, north-facing land, the home looks out over the trees. No close neighbours. No traffic noise. Just space, privacy and room for the whole family to spread out.
Inside, the work's done. The home is fully renovated, so you can skip the weekends at Bunnings and spend them living. Cook on gas in the open-plan kitchen while the family gathers round. Retreat to the formal lounge when you want some quiet.
Outside is where this property shines. The covered entertaining deck looks straight over the pool to the trees. Long lunches, birthday parties, lazy Sunday afternoons. Pick fruit from your own trees. Let the dogs roam. Back the boat or the van through the big shed and park it out the back.
Then enjoy the little things. Bore water you can drink. Solar keeping the bills down. A morning coffee at the village café, a short stroll from your door, or a 20 minute drive to the beach at Caloundra.
