SUMMARY
Charming Original Homestead on 2.6 Lush Acres | A Slice of Samford's Rich History...
DESCRIPTION
Privately positioned at the end of a battle-axe drive and offered to the market for the first time in three decades, this original homestead (circa 1800s) exudes timeless heritage charm, while quirky 1970s additions introduce a unique flairâpresenting a rare opportunity to own a slice of Samford's yesteryear. Brimming with character and relaxed style, this residence perfectly blends traditional Queenslander appeal with a serene country lifestyle, requiring only simple upgrades to restore its former grandeur.
Showcasing the beloved character features of a Queenslander, this charismatic residence boasts solid bones that have transcended time. Stunning wide-board hoop pine timber floors, VJ walls and soaring ceilings are complemented by original ceiling roses, ornate fretwork and stained glass accents, each highlighting a rich history. French doors and timber windows create light-filled, airy spaces, while the original pot-belly fireplace, along with an ornamental gas fireplace featuring a timber mantel and an additional slow-combustion wood burner, adds warmth and character.
Generous windows seamlessly bring the outside in, offering picturesque views of lush, established gardens that create a tranquil sanctuary, attracting local wildlife and framing stunning leafy vistas. Three spacious bedrooms are complemented by a versatile floorplan featuring multiple living areas, allowing for the addition of rooms to accommodate a growing family. A separate studio, complete with a kitchenette and bathroom, provides flexibility for guest accommodation, an artist's retreat, or a private home office with its own entry.
This property truly embodies the acreage living dream, boasting a solid 12.5m x 6.5m shed with three-phase power, an inviting inground pebblecrete swimming pool, and an established orchard. Alluvial flats create rich pastures perfect for a pony, while impressive equestrian facilities at Samford Showgrounds are just a short ride down Showgrounds Drive. Practicality meets picturesque living with a potable bore, approximately 30,000 liters of rainwater tank capacity, and town water connection available.
Set on a lush 2.6-acre riverfront parcel, this historic Highvale property is brimming with endless potential and eternal appeal, poised to welcome its next chapter. This property is more than just a residence - it's a lifestyle waiting to be embraced. Contact Team Chelsea Perry of Craig Doyle Real Estate Samford to explore this exceptional opportunity.
