Gracious Heritage-Listed Queenslander on Leafy Acre

Amber Werchon proudly presents to the market, St Isidores, 40-42 Post Office Road, Mapleton: this gracious 1897-built heritage listed residence of historical and local significance, steeped in history and tradition, on a magnificent parklike 4,211m2 block with stunning manicured gardens, just 350-metres walk to the village; a landmark hinterland property of a calibre rarely found on the Sunshine Coast.
St Isidores, originally known as Sea View House, was built for early pioneering family, William J Smith, his wife Sarah, and their eight children; and is a step back in time on the grandest of scales, impeccably preserved and meticulously maintained honouring the integrity and grace of its era, whilst incorporating modern comforts. A truly impressive residence inside and out, it will take your breath away…
A wide covered front verandah and grand foyer provide a welcoming entry and set the tone for what awaits within. Across approximately 355 square metres internally, the residence comprises five bedrooms, three bathrooms, stately formal dining room, multiple living zones, country-style kitchen with walk-in pantry and meals area, light-filled office, east-facing breakfast deck, separate laundry, and north-facing alfresco terrace at rear overlooking the in-ground pool.
3.3-metre pressed metal ceilings, timber fretwork, timber flooring, French doors, VJ walls with dado rails, lead-lighting, original light switches, casement windows, clawfoot bath, Victorian-look pedestal basins, stained glass and coloured glass on doors and windows, decorative ceiling roses and cornices, breezeways, and chandeliers; are among the suite of period features that infuse charm and warmth, and an early-Victorian colour palette throughout further elevates authenticity and ambience.
Other notable features include split system air-conditioning, gas cooktop (near new), Bosch dishwasher, garden views showcased from virtually every room, and glorious views on the north-eastern side of the home to the coast incorporating Mount Coolum, Mount Ninderry and the ocean.
Infrastructure on the property includes fencing, double gated entry, 2 x 25,000-litre water tanks with pump and significant water filtration system, septic system, double lock-up garage with workshop, romantic garden gazebo amongst the trees, and 70m2 purpose-built gallery/studio with raked ceilings and kitchenette (built in 2021).
Resplendent gardens are yet another impressive feature of St Isidores; they present like something from the glossy pages of a Home Beautiful or Country Life magazine: with manicured hedges, agapanthus, hydrangeas, camellias, and huge mature shady trees along with extensive paving and an expansive lawn area, the grounds complement the residence beautifully.
St. Isidores is a much-admired, iconic Blackall Range property, with a rich history including visits by two Governors of Queensland (120 years apart), and was purchased in 1923 by the Catholic Church who were hoping to develop it as St Isidores Farm College for unemployed youth (named after the patron saint of farming), before being sold to private owners in 1951.
Current owners have cherished every moment spent at St Isidores, creating many special memories and celebrating many milestones over 24 years; the residence is being sold fully furnished (except artwork), and appointments are by private inspection only.
