2203 Riverway Drive

Pinnacles QLD 4815

We think this was the station owners house for the original cattle station that made up the area adjacent to the Ross Dam. "Sprawling" is a word often used for large homes but we think it's applicable here as the house is over 450m2 under roof. Upstairs you will find 5 bedrooms all with air conditioning. There are two living areas upstairs - so your kids can have a playroom and their own theatre room without messing up the part of the house that your friends might see. The family bathroom up here features a double-vanity and a large shower.

You will find the primary suite located at the opposite end of the house from the children's bedrooms. The walk-in wardrobe is so big, there's ample space for a makeup vanity as well as all of your clothes, shoes and cowboy boots. Of course, there's also a large adjacent ensuite suitable for a bedroom of this size.

The kitchen is centrally located, open plan and has miles of bench space. We can envision birthday dinners and holiday meals being cooked here by the whole clan. There is a large walk-in-pantry with power, so you can keep appliances off the bench. Entertaining in your games room or poolside will be a breeze.

Speaking of breezes, the Eastern side of the house (which is perfectly positioned for afternoon shade) is where we think afternoon barbeques will happen. Since the pool is big enough for 30 of your best friends… you better not let anybody know your new address. For those cold winter nights (of which we get 3 in Townsville) you can entertain indoors in the games room which features a bar, Crimsafe screens and is nearly 6m x 7m - perfect for the pool table.

What if you have horses? The bores pump to 6 different water points on the property - so providing troughs won't be a problem. We're not exactly sure of the size… but we suspect that there is a 15 acre paddock and a 10 acre paddock ready to go. Equestrian lovers will love the rhodes grass that has been planted here and left long so there's plenty of feed when you move in. You will also find some stock pens on the property - they are usable but not perfect.

The storage shed is 11m x 9m and has an adjacent carport. There is also an 18m x 8m covered concrete hardstand perfect for storing your caravan or prime mover. Because the owners of this property were in the earthmoving business - we can ensure you that your vehicles won't get bogged. The driveways and storage areas have been properly built and compacted.

I know what you're thinking… Can I subdivide and sell off parts of this block? 37.8 acres is huge! Well we know the neighbours have done something similar so we suspect you might be able to divide this block in the future subject to Council approval. We personally have not researched this prospect.

The location is fantastic! Even though this house is near the Ross Dam - it did not suffer from the flooding event in 2019. The nearest grocery store is a brand new Woolworths which was recently built in Riverway Plaza in Rassmussen 10 minutes away. Townsville's largest employers - James Cook University, TTH and Laverack Barracks are about a 20 minute drive away. The Townsville CBD and beaches of the Strand are 35-40 minutes away.

Be quick!

We rarely see blocks this big so close to town and if you miss this golden opportunity it might be years before we see something else like it. We'll see you at the open home this weekend - bring your helicopter.
