As you enter Riverview Farm from Cookes Road you immediately feel the stress and worry from the outside world slip away. If you have been searching for the ultimate rural oasis, then search no more... You have found it.
Meandering down the oversized driveway, and across the impressive causeway over the edge your very own private lake, you rise up to your large 5 bedroom family home. You either park in the huge double garage, or in your even bigger, oversize, 5 bay enclosed shed. Sitting proudly on top of your elevated house site, out to the left you have you have the view over the lake, and down to the road to see if any visitors are on their way - As this property is designed to entertain! Beyond the road, are serene paddocks, rising up to beautiful tree lined ridges, rising to Curramore and some of the highest points of the range. Out to the right, you have more rolling hills and paddocks, with not a neighbour in sight, with the junction of Elaman Creek and the mighty Mary River joining their crystal clear waters and beginning the winding 291km journey to the sea...
