There are homes that tick the boxes, and then there are homes that completely change your expectations. Welcome to 158 Cassowary Street - an exceptional family residence offering a level of space, finish and lifestyle rarely found in Longreach.
Positioned on a generous 1,214m² allotment on the edge of town, this beautifully established property combines five-bedroom family living with expansive entertaining areas, a spectacular pool precinct, mature gardens and a peaceful outlook across the surrounding native landscape.
From the moment you step inside, the scale of the home becomes apparent. Generous formal and informal living and dining areas flow through the home before opening onto the impressive eastern-facing rear deck - a space designed to be enjoyed year-round and destined to become the heart of the home. Overlooking the established lawns, gardens and pool, the deck provides an exceptional setting for everything from relaxed family breakfasts to long lunches and evenings entertaining friends.
At the centre of the home is a substantial kitchen featuring marble benchtops, a six-burner gas cooktop, dual wall ovens, dishwasher and excellent storage. Importantly for families, the kitchen also enjoys a direct line of sight across the outdoor entertaining and pool area.
The master suite occupies its own position on the northern side of the home and delivers a genuine parents' retreat. It features a spacious bedroom, walk-through robe and beautifully renovated ensuite with marble vanity and dual showers. Independent external access provides additional flexibility and privacy.
The recently renovated main bathroom continues the home's quality finishes, with a custom timber dual vanity and large walk-in shower.
Four bedrooms feature built-in storage, ceiling fans and split-system air-conditioning, while the fifth bedroom at the front of the residence includes its own renovated ensuite - ideal for guests, older children, extended family or those wanting additional privacy.
Resort-Style Living at Home
The standout feature is undoubtedly the rear entertaining precinct.
A massive, covered deck overlooks beautifully established lawns and gardens before flowing through to the impeccably designed swimming pool and entertaining area. Completed in 2024, the pool precinct includes extensive roofing, built-in cabinetry and ceiling fans, creating a private resort-style environment that can be enjoyed throughout the year. An additional air-conditioned pool house provides even greater versatility and could readily become a home gym, studio, teenage retreat, guest accommodation, or additional living space. It is an outdoor environment that needs to be experienced to fully appreciate its scale.
