10 Crawford Street, Torbanlea QLD 4662

This delightful converted church, originally constructed in 1896, still holds the peace and serenity you would expect from a small country church. Inside this heavenly property is a gorgeous open plan lounge/dining/kitchen. The wonderful high arched windows let light stream through, making this property airy and bright. Overhead fans will be installed in late December to make those balmy summers as comfortable inside as they are on the back verandah. There is also a gas outlet handy for the winter nights.



The bedroom overlooks the back garden and has an en-suite, complete with shower.



Off the main bedroom there is a laundry/utility room, large enough to accommodate the overnight guest. This room also has its own bathroom with a more modern dcor, giving the home some funky flair.



Surrounded by lush bamboo and a smattering of native plants, the garden is tranquil and inviting. There is a large chook pen and coop in the back corner of the yard. Six foot wooden fencing around the majority of the property gives it ample privacy, and security. Summers will be enjoyable in the above ground pool, and the back verandah catches the breeze making it the perfect spot for an afternoon relax.



This property features town water and sewerage, and has the added advantage of a 5000gal rain water tank. There is ample off street parking, both in the driveway and behind the lockable 6 foot gate.



Due to the proximity to the local primary school, this property has great rental return potential. With the high ceiling there is potential for a large mezzanine level, allowing for an extra two bedrooms. There is currently a severe lack of available rental properties in Torbanlea, and this would prove to be a profitable opportunity for the savvy investor.



Torbanlea is a steadily growing town, conveniently located only 20 minutes along the highway to Maryborough, and around 25 minutes to Hervey Bay. Both Hervey Bay and Maryborough are bustling regional cities, with Hervey Bay\'s Stockland Centre currently undergoing expansion to increase your shopping opportunities.



Torbanlea State School, which earned the honour of being named 2013 Education Provider of the Year for the Fraser Coast, is within walking distance to the house. There is a covered playground at the end of the street, and a convenience store in the next block.



Torbanlea is only 6 minute drive from the township of Howard, home to the Burrum Coal Discovery Festival which, in its year of inception, was a finalist in the 2013 Regional Tourism Events Awards. Howard provides many of the services you would require; with 2 small supermarkets, cafe, take away shop, pub, butcher, baker, doctor, chemist, post office, hair dresser, and the famous Van Cooten\'s Drapery, just to name a few.
