205 Larneys Lane

Eerwah Vale QLD 4562

Almost 100 years ago, a master ship builder retired from the sea to build his dream home - not on the coast as one might expect, but on a remote hilltop overlooking 67 acres of cattle country at Eerwah Vale. Today, the only sign that a shipwright once lived at 205 Larneys Lane is the original stained glass galleon sailing over seas above the front door of this high set timber Queenslander. However, the mariner's vision of a perfect home remains... There are pressed metal ceilings 12 feet tall, decorative fretwork dividing the rooms and doorways, tongue 'n' groove walls, french doors and window frames fashioned from cedar and wraparound verandahs to catch the breezes and excite the senses on starry nights and balmy days when Mount Cooroy and Mount Eerwah are clearly visible on the horizon.
This is a home to love and one that with very little TLC could be modified to include an ensuite in the walk-in robe of the large master bedroom and an under house rumpus room or extra storage. The 3 bedroom home (plus an office or fourth bedroom) is graced with a massive in ground pool and a giant poinciana tree planted, one suspects, by the original owner. This surprising property lies at the end of a picturesque country lane and its land offers opportunities to resume cattle farming, have a horse and develop some sort of country-stay tourism venture such as 'glamping' on the property's two level plateaux. (subject to approval) The tourist towns of Kenilworth and Eumundi are barely 10 minutes away.
