Located only half an hour from Mossman, this property is not to be missed! Consisting of two sheds and a charming 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom home with well-kept grounds and easy access in a non-flooding area. There is approximately 1.5 acres of cleared land to enjoy, complete with bird feeding stations & places for the kids to play, plus 3.5 acres of natural bushland for the native wildlife.

With bespoke timber features throughout, the quality of this home will not go unnoticed. The country-styled kitchen includes a freestanding island bench with timber slab top, as well as hand-made timber cabinetry & top of the range appliances.

The central lounge room will impress with its high, raked ceilings as well as air conditioning for the warmer summer days, however the cross ventilation throughout the house allows for excellent airflow in all directions so the home keeps cool most of the year. Built for the tropics on steel stumps with wide, undercover verandahs on three sides, this home is ideal for outdoor living and entertaining. The 5m deep front verandah is the perfect place to watch the birdlife and enjoy magical sunsets over the distant ranges.

The master bedroom enjoys an abundance of natural light with a wall of louvred windows plus a sliding door which opens onto the front deck. The walk-through wardrobe provides plenty of storage and access to the wheelchair-friendly ensuite. The second and third bedrooms also include access to exterior verandahs and both have built-in wardrobes. The family bathroom has dual access to create a semi-ensuite for bedroom 2.

Internally, the house has polished Cypress Pine floorboards throughout, with New Guinea hardwood decking on verandahs. The natural timber poles on the verandahs add to the charm of this property, and the retractable UV blinds help to keep the house cool in Summer as well as protecting the deck from wet weather.
