20 Butcherbird Lane, Ridgewood QLD 4563

Tucked away in a whisper-quiet country lane is this custom-built Queenslander, circa 2000, on five leafy acres, framed by rainforest and showcasing glorious, elevated views across the Noosa hinterland, offering absolute privacy and serenity, with the silence only interrupted by sweet bird song.

The home is a typical Queensland design, only (due its modern vintage) more practical than its earlier forebears; and comprises three bedrooms plus office, two bathrooms, open plan living with wood-burning stove, country-style kitchen with servery to deck, front verandah, expansive rear covered deck, and separate laundry.

High ceilings, stunning polished timber floors, decorative fretwork and cornices, ceiling rose in lounge, split system air-conditioning in master bedroom, spa bath in ensuite, timber framed sash windows, rustic corrugated bar in lounge, French doors, direct deck access from master bedroom, café style roll down blinds on deck, and 5kW solar power - are some of the home's many features, and original owners have kept it pristine!

Infrastructure on the property includes a circular driveway, American-style barn with mezzanine floor and workshop, outdoor 'smokehouse' with pot belly burner and firepit area, chook pen, garden pavilion, and 3 x water tanks with total capacity - 15,000 gallons.

The gardens around the house are landscaped and generally flat, sloping away to lush rainforest at the bottom of the valley; 30-40 established fruit trees including native cherry, custard apple, pineapple, bananas, kaffir lime, mango, lemonade, and macadamia provide fresh produce from garden to table…and the chooks will supply you with genuine free range eggs.

This idyllic setting is truly enchanting - the outlook is captivating, and the ambience is calming and warm. You can retreat from the hustle and bustle of suburbia and be cocooned in your own verdant sanctuary where you can embrace gentle, dignified, semi-rural living in comfort and style.

Located less than 10 minutes to Cooroy to access major amenities including schooling, retail/commercial, sporting/leisure, dining, and rail to Brisbane; 15 minutes to Eumundi markets, and 35 minutes to Noosa Main Beach - this is a tree change without sacrifice.

Amazing property, first to inspect will want to own; first time to the market since built, you will see why this one's a 'keeper.'
