Very rarely do properties of this size come to market offering both beach access and tidal creek frontage, making these beautiful 158.6 acres (64.21ha) something truly special.
With the Mitchell Creek Conservation Park running along the rear boundary, you have beach access right from the property, while approx. 1.1km of tidal Mitchell Creek also winds along the back boundary, giving you plenty of opportunity for fishing, crabbing and simply enjoying the peace and tranquillity of this beautiful coastal environment. The property has its own private boat ramp.
Add in ocean views from the central ridge, a comfortable 5 bedroom home, established cattle infrastructure and plenty of room to enjoy a relaxed country lifestyle, and you have a property that is flood free and offers so much more than just acreage.
On the market for the first time in over 20 years, the 5 bedroom home has verandahs on all four sides, giving you plenty of outdoor space to sit back, relax and enjoy the surrounding natural beauty. Inside, the open-plan kitchen and dining area provides a practical heart to the home, with a gas cooktop and electric wall oven. The huge, air-conditioned lounge room provides plenty of room for everyone to spread out, while fans are installed throughout the home.
The bedrooms are all a good size, with the main bedroom featuring a walk-in robe and ensuite. The bathroom, toilet and laundry are all separate, and hot water is electric. Water is supplied by approx. 10,000 gallons of rainwater storage.
Within the house yard are a couple of storage sheds, while the adjoining paddock has a set of timber cattle yards, reflecting the property's history of running 50 head of cattle as the block has exceptional fattening pastures.
The property is fully fenced with firebreaks already cleared and has 10 dams and a bore. A ridge runs through the middle of the property, with the highest point approx. 24m above sea level, providing lovely ocean views and adding another dimension to this already appealing property.
Much of the acreage is nicely cleared and zoned white, while an attractive timbered area of subtropical rainforest provides a wonderful contrast and a natural haven for the abundant wildlife. Kangaroos, wallabies, emus, bush turkeys, echidnas and a myriad of birdlife call the property home, with the occasional Jabiru and Brolga adding to the experience.
And then there is that enviable coastal lifestyle - wander down through the conservation park to the beach, spend a morning fishing or crabbing along Mitchell Creek, watch the wildlife, enjoy the ocean views from the ridge or simply sit on the verandah and appreciate the peace and privacy of having so much space around you.
Whether you're looking for a permanent home, a coastal lifestyle property, a place to run a few cattle or simply somewhere to escape and enjoy the great outdoors, this is a property where the location and lifestyle are every bit as special as the land itself.
Despite its peaceful and private setting, access is easy, with bitumen road to within approximately 4km of the property. Rubbish bin collection is available, the school bus services the area, mail is delivered 5 days a week and even Coles will deliver groceries to your door. Rates are approximately $1,800 per year.
Beach access, tidal creek frontage, ocean views, acreage, wildlife and a comfortable home - opportunities offering this combination are exceptionally hard to find.
