Looking to live a self-sufficient lifestyle in paradise and surrounded by wildlife? Well here it is and it won't last long.

Situated in Captain Creek and only 15 mins to the town of Agnes Water this beautiful old Queenslander has a serene presence as it comes into view after driving through the natural bush entrance at the front of the property.

Nestled amidst almost 40 acres of the Australian bush, this charming 1952 3brm Queenslander has great bones and if you have the time and experience to give it a cosmetic upgrade it will give back as much as you put in. There is so much to take in but let's start with inside.

Stepping from the front door and into the open plan living, dining and kitchen area you feel a sense of grandeur with its 12 foot high ceilings, tongue and groove walls and wood floors. The light bright living space provides a blank canvas to create a masterpiece in this room. The kitchen has been modernized with Stringy Bark and Black Bean timber counters and is practical and in good working order with everything you need: gas cooker, range hood, dishwasher and a large walk-in pantry area which provides plenty of storage space for additional appliances. Off the kitchen is a compact laundry area which could be enhanced with extra storage. A combustion stove provides cosy warmth in the living area for the cooler months.

The master bedroom is situated at the back of the house in its own private area and has access externally to the deck which wraps around 3 sides of the home. A further two bedrooms are located off the main living area and could have many alternative functions, including study, hobby room, or work from home opportunities.

The bathroom is large and spacious and is located just outside off the back deck and consists of a vanity, composting toilet, shower and ample space for additional storage. Calming colors give a sense of peacefulness and serenity.

Heading outside, you will find a large 3 bay shed that has an additional mezzanine floor and houses the large scale off grid battery system that sustains the house, with ample room to store you vehicles or your boat and a workshop for all your tools.

Your self sufficiency is further enhanced with house hold water supplied by 2 20, 000 L tanks connected to the house and an additional tank sits off the 3 Bay shed for back up.

A partially established fruit orchard sits behind the shed and could be easily reinvigorated and added to, increasing your ability to live off the land. An additional storage shed could be utilized as a garden or storage shed.
