The Best of Both Worlds - Private Acreage Paradise Close to Pristine Beaches

Nestled in a private 5.72ha paradise, this classic 1930's Queenslander offers the best of both worlds - a leafy oasis just 1.5km from Smalley's Beach. One of two dwellings, traditional tongue and groove panelled walls, high ceilings, fretwork, and stained-glass windows pay homage to its original era, while the kitchen is modernised to meet today's needs. Living areas on each level also await, along with a period-style bathroom and two spacious and sunlit bedrooms. An elevated deck offers a fantastic place for alfresco entertaining or relaxation, set against a backdrop of Mount Pinnacle views.

Outdoors, towering trees, tropical gardens, and open lawn spaces punctuate the landscape, complemented by a mineral pool, BBQ gazebo and firepit for recreation. A 6-bay shed (4 roller doors) plus lean to for the caravans, fancy cars, boats, tractors - all the toys. Also a 6m x 6m (approximately) separate shed at the rear of the large shed with carport. The main shed has power connected, a bathroom, toilet, and shower.

Take advantage of the self-contained cottage, ideal for multi-generational families or as a rental that offsets your mortgage. "Araluen Cottage" has been the perfect AirBNB.
