264 Mowbray River Road, Mowbray QLD 4877

Two interconnected homes: the original Mowbray River State School - an unprecedented piece of local history - complemented by a luxuriously modern new-build that blends perfectly with, and is sympathetic to, its surroundings.

Set on a picturesque easy care 7057m2 (almost 2 acres), this unique offering is unlike anything currently on the market.

The yellow school bus adorning the entry is the first indication of something very special; the fully renovated Mowbray River Schoolhouse (1923-1961).

The top-to-bottom program of renovation and improvement has revitalised the two-storey schoolhouse and brought it up to a comfortable modern standard while still retaining its unique heritage and period features.

Upstairs, the original layout has been reimagined to create a stately master bedroom - complete with loft area - around which the rest of the floorplan radiates.

The well-appointed galley style kitchen flows through to the second bedroom on one side and the dining-lounge space on the other that resides on what was the original balcony. A spacious bathroom providing both bath and shower options completes the upstairs offering.

An ornate timber door imported from India (one of three in the property) provides the prelude to the downstairs package comprising a new contemporary bathroom, open plan living, dining and kitchen space and two large bedrooms.

A covered breezeway provides the connection to the new home; however, you'll want to make your entry via the impressively imposing and elaborate door that stands guard over the entry portico.

Once inside, the ornately patterned flooring of the portico gives way to an expansive covered timber deck that frames the outlook over the custom solar heated pool.

Oversized stackable sliding doors provide a seamless transition between the alfresco/pool area and the home whose impressiveness is immediately apparent care of the cavernous open plan living, dining and kitchen space that provides both ducted air conditioning and ceiling fans for year-round comfort.

With its massive freestanding island, matching stone benchtops, overabundance of soft close cabinetry, triple sinks and integrated butler's pantry, the showcase kitchen is sure to inspire your inner chef or entertaining extraordinaire.

Not to be outdone, the colossal master suite/wing/pavilion is something to be seen.

The third of the imported doors opens to reveal an enclosed boardwalk-style approach complete with decorative screens and timber floorboards. The bedroom itself is huge and flows through to a dressing room and equally impressive bathroom with separate toilet, freestanding bath, dual sink vanity, an entire wall of timber louvres and twin shower.

The covered deck off the bedroom provides the perfect spot to enjoy balmy tropical days and nights, or to dry off following a dip in the pool that is conveniently serviced by an indoor-outdoor style shower and toilet.

A spacious light filled laundry, guest toilet and double garage with remote panel door and direct access back into the house rounds out this very unique and impressive home.

And to top it all off - a large lockable shed (8m x 16.5m) with covered lean-to (4m x 16.5m) at the rear of the property.

Presenting a range of living options - e.g. occupy both with large or extended families; live in one and rent the other; live in one and keep the other for visiting family and friends - this is something incredibly special.
