Charming, well-maintained cottage amongst world heritage listed rainforest in the unique village of Paluma. Surrounded by national park, yet still a suburb of Townsville, Paluma is nestled at the top of the Seaview Range, far above the oppressive heat of the coast, offering unparalleled lifestyle opportunity in this quaint and beautiful location. Go to sleep with the wind whispering through the trees and wake to birdsong, not traffic and sirens.
Mt Spec Cottage will welcome you into its embrace. Set amongst beautiful rainforest gardens, the all-weather driveway takes you into a roomy carport. Step up onto the paved rear area and walk into a modern kitchen, with space for dining. A simple bathroom with shower, toilet and vanity adjoin the kitchen. Then the large main room, with lots of space for a king-bed and comfy chairs to cuddle up in front of a crackling fire on a cool night. Walk through to the sleepout, another generous space, with room for another bed and still space for a lounge area. The deck looks over the expansive front lawn and is shaded by glowing liquid amber trees.
If you’re looking for a tree-change, with the convenience of suburban amenities, including town water and rubbish collection, Mt Spec Cottage, with it’s charm and easily maintained spaces, is an absolute treasure. Enjoy the peace and tranquility every day, or think about how wonderful it would be to retreat to the fresh, cool mountain air after a week of working in the city. Run as a very successful BnB for the past 6 years, you could even have the best of both worlds and rent the cottage out, when not utilising as your private retreat.
