Escape to the serenity of the high country at 20 McKirdy Road, Palmtree-a rare offering of approximately 640 acres of timbered rangeland nestled atop the southern ridge of the iconic Great Dividing Range. This truly special property combines natural beauty, privacy, and rustic charm in the heart of one of Queensland's most picturesque regions.
The charming hardwood bungalow, lovingly built using timber milled directly from the land, offers a warm, country welcome. Inside, you'll find two generously sized bedrooms, a well-equipped kitchen, open plan living, and a wood heater to keep you cosy during the cooler months. The wide wraparound verandahs invite you to relax year-round-catching summer breezes and framing filtered south-eastern views across the range. A solar panel array also helps reduce energy costs.
Set among established eucalyptus forests, with flourishing lawns and easy care gardens, the home is accompanied by a shed/carport and a dam, providing both lifestyle and practical amenity. Native flora and fauna thrive across the landscape, creating a peaceful retreat for nature lovers and adventure seekers alike.
With council rates of approx. $1,244 per half-year, this is a unique opportunity to own a substantial holding in a breath-taking location-ideal as a private getaway, lifestyle block, or future project.
Large holdings such as this are very tightly held, with this being the first time the property has been offered to market in more than forty-five years. Inspections strictly by appointment.
