Enjoy the best of both worlds - live by the beach and have room for the horses!
If you love the sand and surf and horses too, then there's nothing better than living in a place that lets you enjoy the equestrian lifestyle but is just only a short distance from one of the Sunshine Coast's most pristine beaches. 70 Murdering Creek Road, Peregian Beach, is on the market and represents an incredible opportunity for passionate horse lovers who want to enjoy absolutely everything that living on the Coast offers. More still, the opportunity very rarely arises to snap up five flat and useable acres of land only minutes from the beach. So, if you're keen on heading out for an early morning surf and then heading home for some riding, here's a property that genuinely represents the very best of both country and coast lifestyles, and it's ready for your inspection.
This fully fenced 5-acre property comes complete with an as-new quality home that's ready to move into, a large shed with stables and, of course, plenty of room for horses. There are currently 2 fenced and watered paddocks with the capacity for further division and even a grass Olympic-sized dressage arena, which has been professionally levelled and the drainage optimised for all-season use.
Set back from the road and with a great rear outlook that overlooks the property, what the house lacks in current size, it more than makes up for in quality. Only constructed in 2016 and with already council-approved extension plans, the fully screened two bedroom air-conditioned home can comfortably host a family of four. In as-new condition, there's nothing to do other than move in and enjoy life. Two well-sized bedrooms feature built-in robes, the bathroom is large and spacious with a double sink vanity, and the home has a separate toilet. With a quality timber look floor and ceiling fans throughout, the open-plan living/dining/kitchen area adjoins a deck that's perfect for entertaining and enjoying the Queensland sun. And when the moon swaps places with the sun, you can head down into the house yard and relax around the huge steel firepit for some stargazing and telling tales. It's the epitome of the ultimate Aussie lifestyle that people dream about!
But let's cut to the chase. You're undoubtedly interested in horses, right? Well, here's what you'll really love about the place...
* The grass 60m x 20m Olympic-sized dressage ring has been professionally levelled, and drainage installed, resulting in a 5% drop to the bottom corner that ensures efficient water runoff. This makes it useable during rain and significantly extends the riding season. Power runs to poles around the arena, ready for floodlights to be installed.
* The large shed includes two stables and a tack room. Secured by roller door access is a large space to park the horse float, store the ride on, and there's still ample room for your work area and tools. A separate small tank supplies water to the stables, as does the large dam which also services the paddocks.
* The rear of the shed has been transformed into quality self-contained guest accommodation. A semi-separate bedroom, kitchenette, living/dining area and bathroom make this a comfortable solution for overnight guests, grandparents or even teenagers wanting their privacy.
* Ample water to the property with 4 good-sized tanks means you'll never run dry, and the house and shed are each serviced by quality treatment systems with a macerator pump installed for the shed.
* 8.8kw of solar power was installed only 12 months ago, so running the property is economical.
Importantly too, this property has close and convenient access to all the amenities that the Sunshine Coast has to offer. Just minutes to schools, shops and cafes, you can have the best of both worlds - a secluded and private horse property that's still close to all the conveniences you'll need.
* 5-minute drive to Peregian Beach and Coles.
* You'll be within 15-minute driving distance of at least six schools, including the esteemed St Andrews.
* Be at Sunshine Plaza in 20 minutes.
* 14 minutes to the airport.
* Easy access to the M1 and only an hour and 45 minutes to Brisbane's CBD.
This is an exceptional opportunity for passionate horse lovers to acquire a property that provides all the necessary infrastructure for a top-notch operation.
