Tucked away at the end of a coveted, leafy no-through road is Gumland Rainforest Retreat - a thoroughly charming acreage property complete with a custom-designed, ultra-durable Hebel-constructed house and separate self-contained studio on a fully fenced 4878m² block with a lush rainforest backdrop, just eight minutes' drive to Maleny.
The home itself comprises two bedrooms, a fully tiled bathroom/laundry combo, second toilet, media/third bedroom, open plan living, a modern newly renovated kitchen and bathroom (completed just last year), and a covered wraparound timber deck with parking space underneath. There is also an alfresco paved courtyard on the north-eastern side, perfect for capturing toasty winter sunshine.
Features of the home include 1 x split system air-conditioner and a cosy fireplace in the lounge, ceiling fans, floating timber floors throughout, timber-framed external doors all fully screened except for the kitchen doors, banks of louvres, stainless steel appliances, gas cooktop, stone benches, direct deck access from the master bedroom and main living area, direct courtyard access from the kitchen and media/third bedroom, instantaneous gas hot water, solar power, and NBN internet."
The air-conditioned studio comprises bedroom/living, kitchenette, bathroom, and its own covered patio; this offers great versatility with possibilities including a home office/salon, guest accommodation, teenager's retreat, or dual living for family members.
Infrastructure on the property includes boundary fencing, 3 x rainwater tanks, a bore supplying water to the home, and a fully lined shipping container for storage. The grounds are mostly flat and there is a delightful stream running across the rear border. There's plenty of space for vegetable beds, offering the opportunity to grow your own fresh produce and embrace a self-sustainable, off-grid lifestyle if desired.
The home is perfectly positioned at the end of a tree-lined driveway, further boosting privacy, and is shrouded in nature, with plentiful birdlife and wildlife to keep you enthralled. Enjoy your morning coffee in the courtyard soaking up Vitamin D, or undercover on the deck having a chat with the kookaburras about the day ahead.
Located in a picturesque dress circle acreage belt on the northern outskirts of Maleny, you can savour the benefits of peaceful country living without sacrificing quick, easy access to essential amenities including schooling, childcare, commercial and retail facilities, medical clinics, and dining.
