309 + 310 Michelles Road, Horse Camp

Some properties are purchased for what they offer. Others are discovered for the life they make possible.

At the end of a long private driveway, beyond the pace of everyday life, lies Horse Camp. Approximately 55 acres of secluded Queensland country, where wallabies wander near the deck, birdsong carries through the trees and, on a clear moonless night, the Milky Way stretches across a sky largely untouched by artificial light.

Private, peaceful and rich in natural character, this is a property with a personality all its own.

But what makes Horse Camp particularly special is what lies beyond the home. An established tropical orchard, productive gardens, independent living infrastructure and a landscape of bushland, trails and open clearings come together to create an opportunity to live a little differently.

This is not simply a home on acreage. It is a country lifestyle already taking shape.

A HOMESTEAD SURROUNDED BY NATURE

The three-bedroom, one-bathroom residence sits comfortably within its leafy surroundings, with a small deck overlooking the trees.

It is a home that invites you to slow down. Enjoy a quiet morning coffee, watch the wildlife come and go, or spend an evening outside as the last light settles over the bush.

The surrounding landscape brings a sense of seclusion that is increasingly difficult to find, while the rural township of Gin Gin provides everyday essentials, schools, cafés and local services.

Here, the appeal is not about being in the middle of everything. It is about having the freedom to choose when to venture out and when to simply stay home.

AN ORCHARD OF EXTRAORDINARY VARIETY

One of Horse Camp's most remarkable features is its established tropical orchard, a collection of mature trees and productive plantings that transforms the property into something well beyond a conventional acreage holding.

Eight mature mango trees are just the beginning.

Lady Finger and dwarf Cavendish bananas, yellow and red pawpaw, jackfruit, soursop, jaboticaba, custard apple, chico, longan, tamarind, avocado, persimmon, dragon fruit, guava and cherry guava all feature in an impressive collection of tropical and subtropical fruit trees.

A full citrus line includes lemon, lemonade, lime, kaffir lime, calamansi, mandarin, orange and cumquat, alongside the unusual chocolate pudding fruit.

Around the home, well-kept gardens, greenhouses and growing areas for orchids, corn and strawberries extend the experience.

There is something deeply rewarding about a property where the landscape is not merely decorative, but productive. Where the seasons bring different harvests, the gardens offer room to experiment and the orchard becomes part of everyday life.

For gardening enthusiasts, aspiring small-scale growers or anyone who appreciates the pleasure of homegrown produce, this is a feature that deserves to be experienced firsthand.

A full tree schedule is available on request.

INDEPENDENCE WITH ROOM TO GROW

Horse Camp combines its natural appeal with practical infrastructure designed to support an independent country lifestyle.

Solar power provides an off-grid foundation, while two dams and substantial tank storage support the gardens and orchard. House water and backup supplies are also on site.

A double garden shed and two carports provide practical space for gardening equipment, tools, storage and vehicle shelter.

Beside the main residence, a granny flat is already underway, offering the opportunity to continue developing the property's accommodation options, subject to completion and any necessary approvals.

A caravan beneath a carport provides another guest arrangement, with solar power and its own composting toilet.

Together, these features create flexibility for visiting family and friends, independent living arrangements or a more self-sufficient way of life.

The foundations are here. What comes next is yours to imagine.

YOUR OWN BUSH RETREAT

Beyond the home and orchard, the property opens into a landscape of thick bushland, clearings and established trails.

Fire trails and bushwalking tracks provide opportunities to explore the natural surroundings, while a clearing large enough to accommodate more than one camp or caravan offers a different way to enjoy the property.

Imagine weekends spent outdoors, friends gathering beneath the trees, or a quiet night under the stars with no immediate neighbours in sight.

An outdoor shower heated by a wood fire adds another distinctive touch, bringing a simple, back-to-nature experience to the property.

With native wildlife, constant birdlife and the changing sounds of the bush, Horse Camp offers a connection to nature that cannot be created simply by adding a few trees to a suburban backyard.

For those considering a private camping escape or nature-based retreat, the existing features provide an intriguing starting point, subject to relevant planning, environmental and other approvals.

A REGION MADE FOR EXPLORING

While Horse Camp feels wonderfully removed from the everyday, the surrounding region offers plenty to discover.

Lake Monduran | Freshwater fishing and adventure

A standout attraction of the wider district, Lake Monduran is well known for barramundi fishing, boating and water-based recreation. Spend a day on the water, launch a kayak or make fishing the centrepiece of a weekend. It is an appealing drawcard for outdoor enthusiasts and anyone who enjoys having an adventure waiting nearby.

Goodnight Scrub National Park | Nature at its wildest

For those who appreciate the natural world, Goodnight Scrub offers bushwalking, birdwatching and opportunities to experience the region's native flora and fauna. It is part of the area's appeal for people drawn to quiet landscapes and time outdoors.

Boolboonda Tunnel | A remarkable piece of history

The nearby district's pioneering story can be explored at Boolboonda Tunnel, a historic railway tunnel renowned for its unusual unsupported construction. It is a fascinating reminder of the engineering and determination that helped shape regional Queensland.

Mystery Craters | An unusual natural attraction

Near South Kolan, the Mystery Craters provide another distinctive regional outing. Their unusual formations have long attracted curiosity, adding an unexpected point of interest to the surrounding countryside.

Gin Gin | Country-town character

Approximately 13 minutes from the property, Gin Gin provides everyday conveniences alongside a proud rural identity. Historic buildings, local cafés, a community gallery, local history displays and Saturday markets offer opportunities to enjoy the welcoming character of a traditional Queensland country town.

Further afield, Bundaberg expands the choice of regional services, shopping, dining and coastal excursions.

It is a region where fishing, history, bushland and country hospitality all form part of the broader lifestyle.

A DIFFERENT KIND OF LUXURY

Luxury is not always measured in polished finishes or grand entrances.

Sometimes it is the freedom to grow your own fruit, the pleasure of watching wildlife from your deck or the simple satisfaction of knowing there is room to pursue an idea without immediately running out of space.

At Horse Camp, luxury is found in the established orchard, the quiet of the bush, the independence offered by the infrastructure and the darkness of a country sky filled with stars.

It is the opportunity to create a life that feels personal rather than prescribed.

A property for those who value nature over noise, possibilities over convention and the freedom to make a place their own.

Approximately 55 acres of private country. A comfortable homestead. An extraordinary variety of established fruit trees. Productive gardens, dams, solar infrastructure and additional accommodation potential.

And beyond it all, the space to decide what your next chapter looks like.
