Last Listing description (February 2024)

Set on a generous 2,023m2 of flat usable land, backing onto cane fields and surrounded by mountain views, this renovated home with a large shed and igloo, clad in industrial grade vinyl, will have the whole family catered for.

The low set home is approx. 234m2 under roof and has been reclad, restumped, refreshed with aluminum windows and freshly painted inside and out yet still has many charming Queenslander features such as tongue-in-groove walls and ceilings in some parts of the home and a mixture of hardwood polished timber floors.

The house has 4 bedrooms, open plan office, open plan lounge and massive kitchen which easily seats 8 around the kitchen table, plus another central living area. There is a small pantry area off the kitchen and a few steps down to the renovated, tiled bathroom.

The kitchen has timber look benches, ample cupboard space, a 4 burner gas cooktop and electric wall oven.

There is a large, cement floored rear and covered outdoor living area - laundry, raised timber deck and room for a bar and entertaining area.

The yard is partly fenced around the house to keep kids and animals safe.

Wide side access leads to the 6.8m x 10m shed/garage/workshop.

The large rear yard offers plenty of room to kick a footy around, put in a pool or perhaps a granny flat (Subject to Council Approvals).

There is a 7.8m x 14m x 4 m high approx. steel framed and vinyl clad structure which has a purpose built floor which can be re inserted if required. Inside is also a steel chicken coop. This "tunnel house" offers many possibilities including a work shop, storage for several large vehicles and so much more.

Fruit trees include: Rolinia, Pomelo, bush lemon, orange, lime, brazilian cherry, mango, avocado, lemonade, mandarin, jackfruit and guava.

Babinda is attracting many young families and the owners are sad to leave their great neighbours. Babinda is also known for it's great Community spirit and hosts many local events that the town is proud of.
