57A Gweneth Rd, Peregian Beach QLD 4573

Located at the end of Gweneth Road, you enter a long tree-lined driveway and pass through a bushy bird sanctuary, as the main home slowly emerges into view. North-facing and set on nearly 7,000m2, the two storey dwelling has a two bedroom self contained apartment downstairs (own bathroom, laundry, kitchen) with a large reverse cycle air conditioner and ceiling fans. This currently returns $450 per week.

There is also a separate guest/office/sitting room downstairs, offering a leafy outlook with it's own basin and ensuite. An adjoining door between the apartment and guest room could be unlocked to create a continuous space and increase the rental return.

Upstairs has two more bedrooms (main with WIR), a separate bathroom and toilet, and an open design living area with a large reverse cycle air conditioner and slow combustion wood heater. The kitchen has an oversized high-end electric oven and gas cooktop. The Mid Century Modern inspired kitchen renovation immediately captures your interest when entering the living space, completing the modern-retro style throughout the home. Overhead cupboards are fitted with beautifully hand-crafted wavy glass sliding doors with sandblasted stripes which give an authentic reference to a bygone era. A neat coffee making nook will make your morning coffee even more enjoyable, sipping it while relaxing at the breakfast bar, bathing in the filtered morning sunlight.

The living room's extra large windows and sliding doors easily capture the breezes and open onto an expansive deck, creating a nature haven as the inside and outside merge; a Monet-like garden view dappled in sunlight under a canopy of tall gums.

CARPORT & ART STUDIO

Behind the main dwelling is a large gravel turning circle which leads to a high clearance (min. 3.5m) huge carport (12m x 6m), capable of housing most RVs, 4WD vehicles and small trucks. An art studio/storage/office/gym, the size of a large double garage, is next to the carport. The studio is fully lined with square set fibro sheets with metal frames and battens. Fully insulated with woollen batts to moderate temperatures, it is also fitted with a reverse cycle air conditioner, shelving, a laundry tub, and a 10,000L water tank and pump connected.

The clear perspex/steel roller doors provide beautiful light in combination with large windows that allow essential southern light without glare if you use the space as an art studio or work room. A special shelter is attached to the back to house the Toro Kawasaki zero turn ride on mower (included with property sale).

ORCHARD

If you are striving for a self-sufficient lifestyle, all the hard work has been done. Beyond the carport and studio, the yard slopes gently upwards past the veggie patches into a wide paddock and orchard. All fruit trees are productive and organic, including a variety of citrus trees & more. Water storage for the entire property is approximately 120,000 litres, which is more than enough even through droughts.

The current owners are passionate about leaving land in a better condition than when they found it, so have planted over 500 natives on the property. All indigenous to the area, some are endangered species. This property is now a bird sanctuary. From the moment you walk onto the property, a soft chorus moves through the layers of trees to remind you it is full of life.

STUDIO

A generous studio (120m2) has its own access and power supply from Clarendon Road. This separation from the main dwelling gives complete privacy and independence. The studio is a modern construction built by Fauna Homes. It faces north with a sweeping view of the lush park-like orchard and vibrant sunsets. Every room has a garden view. The oversized rooms have built in cupboards and casement windows that maximise sea breezes. An open living area includes a large modern kitchen with stone benchtops. Stacker sliding doors open onto an extensive covered patio. The long single garage has a laundry tub and taps. All rooms stretch up to a ceiling height of 2.7m which provide moderate indoor temperatures year round.
