Key Facts
Bartle Frere 5 Bedroom ESCAPE TO FREEDOM AND LEAVE THE CITY BEHIND
Your dream awaits you in the foothills of Mount Bartle Frere, Queensland's highest Mountain where the Rainforest meets the Great Barrier Reef.
Nestled in the foothills of the East Coast, the house, a traditional Queenslander, brings elegance and charm amidst the beauty of Far North Queensland World Heritage Rain Forrest.
Set on a 104 acre free hold title, the property boasts two natural permanent creeks, 35 acres of pasture and 60 acres of secluded rainforest, house and surrounding land.
An 81-megalitre allocation of pristine crystal-clear water from the mountain, ensures that you will never be without nature's most precious resource.
CHARACTER QUEENSLANDER
The 5-bedroom, family home retains its Queenslander character with polished timber floors, high ceilings, timber-lined walls and coloured feature glass. Several living and dining spaces provide room for family and guests, alongside a country-style kitchen with gas cooking, a separate office and three bathrooms. The spacious primary bedroom sits within its own distinctive wing, while the wide front porch and additional balconies invite you to sit back and take in the gardens and rural outlook. Car parking beneath generously provides for four vehicles if needed.
FLEXIBLE LOWER LEVEL
The lower-level accommodation can be utilised for integrated or separate living, with its own bathroom and toilet. The layout lends suitably to guest accommodation or 'Granny flat' living.
SHED AND WORKSHOP
A modern style, fully enclosed shed, provides ample space for workshop and machinery needs, as would be expected on a property of this nature.
Situated away from the house, the10 m x 12 m shed has mains power provided, three bays and roller door security. There is ample room for machinery, boats, vehicles, tools or business equipment. A 5.5 kwt solar system deflects the worst of the power bills while still retaining the reliability of mains connection.
A NATURAL TROPICAL RETREAT
A permanent freshwater creek winds through the rainforest and provides secluded swimming in a natural setting: your own place to cool off on a warm afternoon. Open usable areas, established gardens, productive growing spaces and shade houses offer plenty of scope for gardening or a more self-sufficient lifestyle. With rainforest and mountain scenery around you, it's easy to see why the owner has loved the peace and privacy here.
