Climate change will change the way look at properties. This beautiful property has land sloping to the east and the North and has a valley of Lush rainforest and magnificent tall Blackbutt gum trees between the house and the summer breezes from the coast creating a drop in temperature as it filters through to the home.

Water will become one of the most valuable resources on land and this property has two dams. One dam sufficient and large enough for the needs of the most ardent of gardeners.
Coupled with town water on site, water security is assured.

In winter the prevailing wind is from the south and the west This beautiful land is snuggled down and protected from the cold and blustery winds, leaving the house area bathed in sun .

Couple all the above with rich volcanic soil and a location arguably unable to be replicated at the centre of the private school precincts and just 10 minutes from the beautiful Sunshine coast beaches with the beautiful Buderim village just minutes away this is a once in a generation opportunity.

This truly charming custom-designed home, built to the highest of standards by its original owners, and designed to be in harmony with its lush rainforest surrounds, offers absolute privacy and serenity on 5.7 glorious easy-care acres (with subdivision potential), in a breathtaking setting, on a no-through road…yet just minutes to Buderim Village, premium private schools, and access to M1 to Brisbane.

All on one level, it is complete with four bedrooms (fourth currently used as a media room), two bathrooms, open plan living/dining, study nook, well equipped French kitchen, covered verandah with pergola showcasing picture-postcard view over one of the two dams (one with pumping rights), Hot Spring spa to soak in and admire the vista.

The ambience throughout is a delightful mix of French/European meets Sunshine Coast lifestyle; there are many features that enhance appeal and liveability including high-quality insulation in walls and ceilings plus vented roof for all-season comfort, cleverly positioned windows allow light in and cross ventilation, fans, air-conditioning, easy-care tiled floors throughout, intercom, home alarm, generous storage, and a 3mx3m tool shed.

Most of the acreage looks after itself with only approximately 1500m2 of colourful cottage style gardens around the home needing maintaining, the rest of the land lies within the stunning rainforest which frames the property.

With visible neighbours; tucked well away from the no-through road, with a sealed driveway, there is no traffic noise…it’s a veritable sanctuary, a haven of absolute bliss! Original owner occupiers are relocating, creating a RARE opportunity for a new owner to discover the magic.
