196 Sundown Road, Sundown, Qld 4860

This property really does offer the best of both worlds. The house sits on a good old-fashioned quarter acre block (1000 sqm), but because you have a farm that wraps around two sides of the property you feel like you have so much space and privacy. There is a neigbour on one side but when you look out the kitchen window you see only the cane fields, the mountains of Jubilee Heights, and beyond towards Flying Fish Point.

With brand new timber look vinyl planked floors, the house is one of those rambling big Queenslanders with four bedrooms, possibly 5. The living area opens onto the large covered front porch which is the perfect place for a cup of tea in the morning and a bit of quiet time before your day commences. The kitchen has been upgraded and is very functional with heaps of storage, a good gas stove, a large walk-in pantry, and good bench space. 

The main bathroom is upstairs with a second downstairs that only needs the shower base and screen to finish off. These are included with the sale. There is sufficient air conditioning to keep the whole place cool in the summer with nothing to block the breeze flowing from the river.

The is plenty of height and space downstairs and with the bathroom already pretty much in place you can easily imagine a granny flat (STCA). Currently, there is lockable garage space for at least 4 cars with the addition of the double garage at the side of the house.  Beyond the main garage is room for a massive workshop or tinny and motorbike space. At the very least this space would make a fantastic rumpus room.

The gardens are established with the obligatory citrus trees but there is room for a full orchard, chook shed, and veggie gardens. The house has been fully reclad and the roof is in excellent condition having been replaced at some stage in the last 10 years or so.

This is a big old Queenslander with plenty of room inside for everyone and a great sense of space on the outside. It feels like you are out at the farm yet it is only a few minutes to the schools, shops, and sporting fields. This is a great place to raise the family.
