Fancy the thought of a tree change lifestyle in the beautiful Sunshine Coast hinterland?
Shalom is situated in the beautiful Obi Obi valley, nestled just 10 minutes from the picturesque villages of Mapleton and Kenilworth. A further 10 minutes and you are into the main town of Nambour, and just 15 minutes more, and you arrive at some of the best beaches the Sunshine Coast has to offer.
The property has had a rich history with the traditional creamery hinting at its time as a dairy farm, and the pagoda reflecting its time as a Buddhist retreat.
This 195-acre property with original homestead, has plenty of space for a small holding self sufficient lifestyle, with its 6-bed permaculture designed vegetable garden and 27 types of fruit and nut trees. The remainder of the property is forested with a pebbled summer creek running along the whole valley floor. Its absolute privacy affords a wonderfully relaxing lifestyle, where you can meander along your own forest trails whilst listening to the birdsong and enjoying the diverse native wildlife that call Shalom home.
For the entrepreneur, this property would be ideal as an ecotourism venture or simply for a family wishing to work from home and have their children grow up amongst nature. The school bus picks up at the end of the road for both primary and secondary schools making mornings a breeze.
The house itself is nearly a 100 years old and in the style of a high-set Queensland farmhouse with plenty of potential to raise the house if a family needs more space. It has been lovingly restored, with key features from its past being retained to allow a mixture of modern amenities, and true country charm.
There are two main living areas. The traditional 'snug' has a wood combustion heater which keeps the house cosy in the winter and overlooks the house lawn and pretty springtime cottage garden beds, The second living area is an open plan family room that incorporates a new large country style eat-in kitchen, and office nook.
There are three bedrooms and one shower room. The main bedroom, with its own dressing room, overlooks a stunning Magnolia tree; a beautiful sight in the morning. The second bedroom is a double sized room with its polished hoop pine floors and ornate breezeway accentuating the traditional character of the house. The third bedroom is a large single room which overlooks the vast tropical house garden to the rear.
If you are ready for a change of pace and lifestyle without having to forfeit all the things you love about a town environment, then contact us to make a viewing appointment.
