This is the pick of the bunch in large rural land blocks. With a kilometre of permanently flowing creek, featuring numerous babbling brooks and a huge ,deep natural waterhole with diving rocks and easy access, the allure of a constant fresh water supply is hard to resist. This unique property has numerous and large grassy flats,several fantastic homesites with views over land as well as superb water views to the horizon over the Wivenhoe Dam. There is an existing plantation of over 600 mixed cabinet timber trees which will mature in only another ten years or so, and the property has run around 14 cattle over the last decade . That covers the Council rates ( Somerset Shire). Other residents include platypus, koala, wallabies/kangaroos and innumerable birds and fish. A large, near new 4 bay shed in v.g.c. and a full set of timber cattle yards in excellent condition make the managing of a small cattle herd, or horses an easy task. The property is heavily timbered with gum, silky oak, casuarina, river oaks and many others as well as a myriad of ferns, other water flora and many native blackboys. It's only 5 minutes out of Fernvale with first rate bitumen roads,( the school bus comes to the front gate), but you might as well be a hundred kilometres away when you just want to come home to the peace and quiet of a true country lifestyle. Plenty of opportunity to run horses or consider other commercial ( e.g. weekend rental cabins) or hobby pursuits, or just keep it for our own recreational enjoyment. Power is to the fence line ,although there is a great opportunity to be completely 'off the grid' and self sufficient, with sun, wind and water power! Great neighbours who are just close enough, and just far enough away, and a happy and thriving community- a fantastic area to bring up a family, or retire to, or to mix work and pleasure. It is a fast and ever improving commute to Ipswich or Brisbane, can get to the airport in an hour. Best of all-design and build your own home, you don't have to compromise and accept someone else's ideas .With a number of available home sites, you can really build something special for yourselves. This is about as good as it gets and extremely well priced for such a superb property.
