Restored Queenslander, Original Features on Picturesque Landscaped Acreage

The Lake House...DREAMS can come true; this property is sure to be someone's dream. If this, is you, the opportunity has arrived to make it your reality? The only way to describe the creation of this property is a 'LABOR of LOVE'. When the current owner fell in love with the location of the land, the creative vision and huge project began. The vision of The Lake House began 15 years ago, standing in overgrown paddock, the only building then, a rundown shed. To see this property today is a true credit to its visionary creators.
The original Queenslander was relocated from Mackay and inch by inch the renovation began. The grand façade will immediately have you feeling like you are about to walk into a past era. Upstairs space showcases the homes original features from days gone by, original tongue and groove timber walls, polished floorboards, character doors and timber fretwork. The floorplan of the living zone is open, allowing beautiful views to the majestic countryside. French doors open onto the front veranda from the lounge room. The country kitchen is the hub of the home, perfectly positioned to take home cooked meals out onto the veranda where you can take in the view.
Includes 2 bedrooms, the master has sliding door access to the veranda plus an additional room the owner uses as an office, a bathroom, lounge, dining, and kitchen. The back veranda sweeps around the back and side of the house allowing you to enjoy the outdoors at different times of the day.
The ground floor of the house is new and built in a contemporary design with a touch of nostalgia added by the clawfoot bath. This space could easily be your additional income with your own air bnb. The third bedroom is downstairs, a spacious room with a walk-in in robe, an open plan lounge and rumpus room, a bathroom and laundry. Double sliding doors allow you to take in the beautiful view to the lake and landscape.
A rural property would not be complete without a high clearance shed, here you have room to store boat and caravan and vehicles.
The colourful tropical garden beds are installed with a watering system. Creative foliage plantings have been used throughout the garden.
The magical ambience of this unique property, compared to any other, is the man-made lake filled with flowering water lilies. Right beside the lake you will enjoy entertaining in the spacious pergola. The perfect setting for special occasions, even weddings!
The only way to capture the true essence of everything this property has to offer is by coming for a walk through the grounds and home.
Only a few kms from Cape Hillsborough National Park, 9kms to Seaforth Beach, 1km to Smalleys Beach, 40 mins to Mackay and 1hr and 30mins to Airlie Beach.
This property presents endless opportunities for additional income and lifestyle, located on the same road leading to one of Australia's most iconic tourist destinations. Whether it's glamping pods, glamping tents, functions, weddings, or the simple country lifestyle to enjoy where all the hard work has been done for you.
