Peaceful acreage escape

Set on ten acres, tucked away down peaceful Hollins St, this high-set home is the ideal spot for the nature lover where you can listen to and watch the birds and butterflies come and go. There's a good cleared area around the house perfect for the keen gardener, a shed or a pool as desired, whilst the majority of the land is bush through which you can enjoy nature walks and create you own magical follies.

Spectacular treetop views can be enjoyed all through the house, especially from the north-facing front deck and there's both front and back external stairs. 

The home has 'good bones', and whilst perfectly liveable as is, would benefit enormously from an update to the kitchen and bathroom in particular. Hardwood floors are a sign of a well-built house in an era when quality materials were used that are rarely found in the new builds of today. Modernising has already commenced with the installation of a split system air conditioner in the main living area and a 6.6kw solar system. Whilst connected to mains power and town water, there are also two large water tanks and a bore (which hasn't been used recently due to the water tanks so may need restoration). 

Upstairs, the living area is spacious and light-filled, with sliding doors to the front deck and a kitchen door to a rear landing and back steps. Down the hallway is the bathroom with shower, vanity and toilet and the three bedrooms which are all a good size with built-in-wardrobes, ceiling fans and the main with box air con. 

Downstairs, the concrete slab under the house provides the potential to build in further rooms or keep as storage/workshop/car parking. 

Acreage land rarely becomes available these days on Maggie and this one comes with the huge bonus of a house in these current times of high construction costs. You can move in straight away and gradually do the jobs in order of personal priority. 

Zoning: Environmental management and conservation zone - see Townsville City Council City Plan Section 6.4.4 for allowed development.
