DECEASED ESTATE - EXECUTORS' INSTRUCTIONS ARE VERY CLEAR - THIS PROPERTY MUST BE SOLD AT AUCTION, IF NOT BEFORE.
Some homes are built to provide somewhere to live. Others are created with character, imagination and a little something extra. 'Lakeview' is undoubtedly one of the latter.
Offered to the market as a deceased estate, the executors' instructions are very clear: this property must be sold at auction, if not before. All genuine offers are therefore welcomed and will be presented to the executors for consideration prior to auction day.
Positioned on an elevated, level and fully fenced 1,325m2 corner allotment in the peaceful village of Villeneuve, this exceptional home is anything but ordinary. With its striking full-round log exterior, soaring ceilings, exposed timber beams, beautiful hardwood floors and generous wraparound verandahs, Lakeview has a warmth, presence and individuality that is increasingly difficult to find.
Built approximately 30-odd years ago, the home showcases wonderful craftsmanship and has been well maintained over the years. There is also an interesting personal history behind some of its distinctive fittings. The owner once worked as a bartender at Brisbane's former Cityview Hotel, and following its demolition, a number of fittings were salvaged and thoughtfully repurposed by the builder during construction. It's a wonderful talking point and adds another layer of personality to an already remarkable home.
Step inside and you'll discover a spacious single-level floor plan centred around an expansive open-plan living and dining area, complemented by a generous timber kitchen and bar. High ceilings, exposed beams and skylights create a wonderful sense of space, while the hardwood flooring and timber finishes add to the home's inviting country character.
Three exceptionally generous bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, each opening directly onto the surrounding verandahs. The master bedroom enjoys a particularly spacious ensuite complete with a charming clawfoot bathtub, while the remaining bedrooms offer plenty of room for additional furnishings and the installation of built-in wardrobes if desired. A second bathroom services the remainder of the home.
The verandahs extend around three sides, providing multiple places to relax, entertain and capture the cooling breezes while enjoying the panoramic outlook towards Mount Archer and the Stanley River.
With neighbouring bushland across the road, an elevated position and corner allotment, there is a wonderful feeling of openness, space and privacy.
Outside, the generous 1,325m² allotment offers more than just room to move. The level, usable layout, fenced boundaries and dual street frontage provide flexibility for additional infrastructure, with potential to explore a swimming pool, granny flat, additional shedding or other lifestyle improvements, subject to relevant approvals.
Vehicle accommodation is provided by a powered Colourbond double lock-up shed featuring remote-controlled doors and insulation, offering secure parking and additional storage. There is also a separate garden shed and an excellent water supply comprising five rainwater tanks, including two corrugated steel tanks.
Villeneuve is a quiet country village conveniently positioned midway between Woodford and Kilcoy. The nearby Westvale Boat Ramp provides access to the Stanley River and Lake Somerset, opening up opportunities for boating, kayaking, fishing and a variety of water sports.
Whether you're searching for a permanent country residence, a weekend escape or an opportunity to explore holiday accommodation or Airbnb-style letting, Lakeview offers plenty to get excited about!
Its distinctive log cabin construction, established character, generous accommodation and proximity to the region's waterways could make a memorable holiday retreat for visitors seeking a break from city life. Any proposed holiday letting or additional accommodation would, of course, be subject to relevant council and regulatory approvals.
Approximately 1 to 1 and a quarter hours from Brisbane Airport and the Sunshine Coast, Lakeview offers a genuine change of pace without feeling a world away.
Lakeview is not your ordinary home.
This is a lovely property with character, history, craftsmanship and potential - and one that really needs to be experienced in person to be appreciated - inspection will not disappoint.
