Elevated, private and brimming with personality, this captivating character Queenslander occupies 2.47 acres in tightly held Upper Tenthill, offering the kind of country lifestyle that can be increasingly difficult to find so close to major centres. From its north-facing verandah and cottage style out buildings to its polished timber floors, stained glass, VJ walls and beautiful heritage detailing, the home feels warm, individual and unmistakably country. Yet this is far more than a charming home with a beautiful outlook. A substantial 12.2m x 22.5m shed, fenced paddock, extensive rainwater storage, flexible Rural zoning and excellent supporting infrastructure create genuine versatility for buyers wanting room for vehicles, hobbies, animals, a home-based enterprise or simply more freedom to enjoy life their way.

WHY UPPER TENTHILL & THE LOCKYER VALLEY? Upper Tenthill offers buyers something increasingly valuable: genuine rural living without isolation. From this peaceful country setting, Gatton is approximately 10 minutes away, placing shopping, schools, healthcare and everyday services within easy reach, while Toowoomba is approximately 25 minutes away and Brisbane can be reached in around 1 hour 30 minutes, depending on traffic and destination. The broader Lockyer Valley continues to benefit from its strategic position along the Warrego Highway corridor between Brisbane and Toowoomba. Lockyer Valley Regional Council identifies the region as a leading agricultural area offering rural lifestyle and employment opportunities, while recent regional data highlights continued investment, employment growth and strength across agriculture and manufacturing. Council is also actively planning for future population, housing and infrastructure growth through its Growth Management Strategy. For buyers seeking land and flexibility, Rural zoning is particularly appealing: the current planning scheme provides for a broad range of rural activities and other consistent uses, although individual proposals remain subject to applicable planning requirements, overlays and approvals.
