Your Off-Grid Hideaway Awaits - Welcome to Wivenhoe Hill Retreat

Set on 5 acres less than an hour from the Brisbane CBD, "Wivenhoe Hill Retreat" is an amazing lifestyle property. It's perfect for the downsizer, those looking for an escape from the city or anyone chasing a good investment return. Hidden away in a picturesque corner of South East Queensland, yet only 8 minutes away from Woolworths, the famous Fernvale Bakery, hotels and other conveniences. Wivenhoe Hill is a very exclusive, tightly held area with only a handful of acreages and this property is unique amongst them.
As a bonus, Wivenhoe Hill Retreat comes fully furnished with white goods (refrigerator, washing machine, fans) plates, crockery, and quality bedding. The kitchen features stainless steel benches, double sink, electric oven and gas cooktop. The vinyl plank flooring helps to make the home easy to maintain and is very hard-wearing. Additionally, there's a ride-on mower and a beaut Weber barbecue that refuse to leave. The home currently is producing income as a casual rental and can earn up to $1,500 per week. Everything you need is basically included in the sale.
Sitting high above Wivenhoe Dam (which is literally across the road), the elevated position of Wivenhoe Hill Retreat guarantees you'll never have any fears of flooding. South East Queensland's biggest dam has 16 kilometres of walking/cycling/horse riding trails. At Wivenhoe you can sail, canoe or kayak and there's 36 beaches around the edge of the dam for swimming. The local wildlife includes Whiptail Wallabies, Koalas, Cormorants, Red Wrens, Ducks, Egrets, Pelicans and Swans just to mention a few.
This light and airy home was designed to be flexible as well as energy efficient. The low cost of living here will amaze you! The home's electricity needs are catered for by solar panels and a cutting edge 10KW solar battery. In the rare event that the solar battery is depleted, an onsite generator automatically kicks in to ensure continuation of supply. There's over 18,000 litres of water storage, an updated water pump to distribute it, as well as a new energy efficient gas hot water system.
This steel-framed home requires little maintenance. Upstairs has two bedrooms (with built ins) served by an oversized bathroom with stone vanity, a large shower and separate toilet. The open plan kitchen/lounge/dining area is even more generous in size. The living areas open to a wraparound deck on two sides allowing for easy outdoor living which showcases the breathtaking views and leaving you in no doubt that the home was designed with entertaining in mind.
Downstairs is an open storage area, undercover parking for at least three vehicles and a third bedroom which could easily be utilised for a home office, secure storage or further developed as an entertainment space. There's also an outdoor shower with hot and cold water. There's no need to hide from neighbours here - you can't even see them.
The entire two hectares features barbed wire fencing and a lockable gate so you can bring your horse or livestock. Whilst the address is on the Brisbane Valley Highway, the home is actually set back from the road. There's room to park your truck, boat, horse float and caravan plus a tonne of room for guests to camp. There is a small dam which has great potential to be converted to a large swimming hole.
