Ideally located in the well renowned Groomsville/Whichello area, just a stones throw from Crows Nest and Goombungee and also an easy drive from Highfields, Toowoomba and even Oakey, this property will suit buyers of both lifestyle property as well as those looking to run a few cattle or horses. For its size, you have the ability to run a reasonable amount of livestock on well established pastures such as Rhodes Grass, QLD Bluegrass and natural Kikuyu. Stands of timber remain with some good quality Ironbark trees which are a valuable commodity for yard or shed building or further fencing on the property.
The historic cottage is perched upon the highest point of the property, offering lovely views of the surrounding undulating, picturesque grazing country. The cottage is in two sections with the main consisting of three bedrooms, lounge and closed verandah, shower & toilet, while the detached kitchen/dining is a separate building, linked via a covered walkway...this is quite typical of the era of some 130 years ago. Another detached building also exists adjacent to the cottage and would also be suitable as visitor accommodation or teenagers retreat. Experience the charm of yesteryear with an original wood stove, still in working condition, tucked away in the original stove recess along with the original open fireplace on another wall. The high VJ walls are made of stunning natural, unpainted hardwood and pine timbers. The cottage and buildings appear to be in good, solid condition...some renovating will be required. The house stumps appear to be in very good condition and a visual inspection under the building reveal hand cut hardwood logs as bearers for the base of the cottage...once again, typical of the era and steeped in history and is absolutely priceless to see such history well and truly standing the test of time!
Cattle yards are in fair condition and an adjoining shed could be perfect for a horse stable/animal shelter. The old floored barn seems to be of a solid base with work required to completely resurrect the building to its former condition.
