Premium country living

‘Windarra Downs’ - a gorgeous rural lifestyle property in Groomsville. Full Story:

THIS magnificent 3.5-year-old home will suit the most discerning buyer.

Verandas feature on three sides with the main veranda being wide and purpose built for entertaining with a built-in timber bar, overlooking the in-ground pool, landscaped gardens, paddocks and far beyond.

No expense has been spared with adjustable blinds/screens along the full length of the veranda, so that this area of the home is usable in almost all weather conditions.

The large stainless steel outdoor kitchen/ BBQ will remain.

Large sliding stacker doors open up from the kitchen and living area as well as the master bedroom, really bringing the open plan indoor and outdoor living together … just perfect for large family gatherings.

The kitchen is simply superb with heaps of benchspace, pot drawers, a large island bench, a five-burner gas cooktop and double oven; along with a large walk-in pantry complete with sensor light. It all culminates to create a wonderful space for the entire family to get together at meal time.

The adjacent dining and lounge area are spacious, with this section of the home having 15-foot ceilings, reverse cycle air-conditioning and a wood heater for year-round comfort.

The remainder of the home has nine-foot ceilings, a huge laundry and large family bathroom, good-sized bedrooms with builtin wardrobes, walk-in robe, air conditioning in the master bedroom and a large ensuite with double basins and dual head shower.

Land and yards

The block is one of the best of its kind, consisting mainly of basalt scrub soils that over the years, has had chicken manure spread over it, along with the sewing of improved pastures, consisting of QLD bluegrass, creeping bluegrass, green panic and natural kikuyu in places.

Fenced to 12 watered paddocks, ranging from smaller nursery paddocks, ideal for sheep goats or calving (some of which are ringlocked), through to larger grazing paddocks for horses or cattle.

Steel portable cattle yards are in place, complete with a loading ramp and concrete base under the vet crush.

Water

Two solar bores supply stock water to header tanks and troughs; and the orchard (along with the established gardens) are fully irrigated. As well, 60,000 litres of rainwater is plumbed to the home.

There are also five dams on the property offering seasonal surface water.

Sheds

In fitting with most other improvements on the property, shedding is second to none, ranging from smaller sheds, garden sheds, green house and outbuildings for hay and machinery storage and animal shelters, through to two 12m x 7m Colorbond sheds. Both sheds are fully concreted with power connected.

‘Windarra Downs’ is privately tucked away among the picturesque rolling hills of the renowned Groomsville area with easy short drives to Crows Nest, Goombungee and Highfields and around 25 – 30 minutes to Toowoomba.
