ROOM TO ROAM
Some properties are defined by what has been created on them. Others, by the beauty of the land itself.
Across 74.5 acres (30.17 hectares) of picturesque hinterland countryside, six ridgelines extend through the holding, offering elevated outlooks over rolling green pasture and magnificent established trees. From a vantage point on Hodgens Road, there are views towards Mount Beerwah, the highest peak in the Glass House Mountains National Park.
Through the heart of the property, Crohamhurst Creek winds beneath a leafy corridor of natural vegetation, with shaded pools, moss-covered rock shelves and a small natural swimming spot creating an entirely different environment from the open country above.
Established tracks traverse the property, connecting its many beautiful settings and inviting exploration. Stands of majestic Bunya and Hoop Pines rise above the grassed slopes, while magnificent Red Cedars, some adorned with staghorns and elkhorns, stand alongside spreading Fig Trees and Silky Oaks, lending an almost parkland feel to parts of the countryside.
Set within one of the Sunshine Coast's most scenic hinterland locations, this substantial landholding offers wonderful scope for a relaxed rural lifestyle. The open grasslands lend themselves to keeping horses or a small number of cattle, while a broad, level paddock near the creek may appeal to those considering a future riding arena. Practical improvements include two concrete creek crossings, dual road access from Hodgens Road and Bald Knob Road, new concrete-post boundary fencing and multiple access gates.
The farmhouse is a character home of around 80 years, liveable and comfortable from day one. It has four bedrooms (or three plus a study), living and dining area, an updated kitchen, air conditioning and a front porch, all set in a fully fenced yard among established trees. A large rear storeroom with its own entrance suits a workshop, studio or hobby space. Further back among the trees, a separate self-contained cabin offers privacy for guests or extended family.
Move in, settle, and take your time. The farmhouse gives you the freedom to get to know the land through the seasons before deciding how to use it. With six ridgelines, a creek corridor and sheltered pockets under the trees, the property's varied settings may also inspire plans for a future residence, subject to the relevant approvals.
What stays with you here is the contrast between the open, elevated country and the quiet, leafy places beneath the trees and beside the creek. There is room to ride, explore, keep a few animals or simply enjoy the freedom of having such an expansive stretch of countryside to call your own. Yet the property remains conveniently connected to surrounding townships and the wider Sunshine Coast region.

For those drawn to the freedom of a substantial rural holding, the natural beauty of the hinterland and the possibilities that come with both, 160 Hodgens Road is an opportunity well worth exploring.
