24 Barnham Road, Nome QLD 4816

(Please see our television quality video and 3D tour to get a sense of what living in this house is really like)

The right house in the right location, perfectly situated to be in harmony with the breeze, the sun and even the earth.

Have you ever wanted to live off the grid? 24 Barnham Road is one of the coolest properties we've ever set foot in and it is nearly completely self-sufficient. It features a massive solar power system with battery back-up, bore and an environmentally friendly build style.

Aaahhhh this is living Barry! There's nothing better than a huge deck to entertain alongside your concrete swimming pool unless it's set out amongst beautiful tropical gardens with the nearest neighbor 200m away. You may never want to share this idyllic space with anyone! In which case- don't invite them over because they will surely be back every weekend. Thoughtful touches add to the awesome outdoor entertaining potential. The alfresco patio features automated screens which roll down to keep your flying friends out but don't hinder the gorgeous views of the acreage.

The kitchen is the heart of the home and with huge banks of louvers on the eastern wall, you'll enjoy experiencing cool breezes off of Cleveland Bay as you cook. There is a waterfall stone bench with a four-seat breakfast bar as well as a professional gas stove which will suit the fussiest of chefs. You'll also find space for a large plumbed fridge, clever cabinets to hide commonly used appliances and the most well laid-out pantry I've ever seen which features more bench space and another huge bank of drawers.

There are two living areas in this house and both feature stunning Grey Ironbark flooring. This premium native Australian hardwood is long lasting and features intricate patterns which lend a classic sense of style. The media room has a large desk, ideal for those who work from home. All three guest bedrooms are on this end of the house meaning it can be completely separated as a children's wing (keeping the lego off your floors).

There is a huge bathroom with an easy access shower suitable for those with mobility issues as well as a large tub. The master bedroom suite features split system air-conditioning and an attached ensuite that opens up for a grand sense of space but is able to be shut off for privacy. There is a large rain-shower here and a well laid-out walk-in wardrobe.

Exiting the home, you will find parking for two cars on a concrete driveway in the carport. The driveway extends all the way from the front gate through the property to the large shed. If you have recreational vehicles, jet skis and trailers, there is no concern about them getting bogged here as all the infrastructure you'll need is already in place. In addition to having two over-sized bays, the shed also features heaps of workshop space and a third roller door which leads to a complete gym. The way the world is today, no one wants to leave their house and with an incredible array of equipment to keep yourself fit, you can go ahead right now and cancel your gym membership. The entire gym is filled with Verve and Iron Master fitness equipment and you will find everything from racked dumbbells to a cable machine. Please see the video to get a sense of how much gear can come with this house.

The yard adjacent to the house is irrigated by an excellent bore which also waters the beautiful mature Australian natives in the gardens. There is an excellent dog-run to keep Fido near the house and an amazing chook pen big enough for your entire flock. The whole 8347sqm block is fully fenced and you will find that many of your neighbours have horses, sheep or even alpacas. On the roof of the home is a solar power system with 44 panels which is connected to a Tesla battery wall system. This means your power bills to run this large property will be next to nothing. Of course the shed is powered as well so you can keep the lights on while pumping iron at midnight.

The location is simply fantastic. We love living on the South side of town because the sun is behind you as you commute to work. New infrastructure at Elliott Springs is bringing schools, shops and parks to the area. For now, your nearest major grocery stores are about 15 minutes away at Fairfield Central. The Townsville CBD is about a 20 minute drive via the port road.

Be quick! If you're after a premium acreage property to live in peace with your family, this is it! Be sure and inspect this weekend.
