1020 Dayboro Road, Kurwongbah

This sprawling resort style acreage residence near Lake Kurwongbah on Brisbane’s northside is a perfect retreat for a growing family in these pandemic times. We are all spending more of our lives at home with our loved ones and this green haven will make you feel like you are on vacation without venturing out. The house is centrally located on the property, hidden away from the road behind a high brick fence, security gate and hedging.

Located a stone’s throw from Lake Kurwongbah, the 1980s built homestead also offers brilliant future development potential. Imagine enjoying the immense lifestyle benefits of this home for the next decade or so as your children grow up and move on, and then when you are ready to downsize for something smaller, you can look at selling your acreage ponderosa for a premium to an eager developer.

Arriving in style at this home, the entry steps take you through the garden and across the verandah to the inviting entry foyer. The home’s arrival area leads into a large combined lounge and living area with fireplace, which flows out onto a large covered entertainment area overlooking the inground pool. The entry foyer flows into the modern kitchen/dining area in the other direction, which also leads out to the rear entertainment area, pool and established gardens. The laundry is well located with easy access to the garden and washing line.

A newly re-thatched pergola adjoining the pool and entertainment area enjoys elevated vistas and breezes overlooking the acreage land with its mature gums and other trees extending down toward the lake.

The residence offers wonderful separation of living for a growing family looking for their own space, with bedrooms located at either end of the home. All bedrooms look out onto lush tropical / native Australian gardens. The master has full-length mirrored built-in wardrobes, and a modern ensuite with open shower. Beside it are two more bedrooms, one of which is already set up as a home office. The main bathroom has a spa as well as stylish glass vanity area. At the other end of the home, off the lounge, are the other two bedrooms, currently enjoyed by two teenagers who relish their own space.

The property has parking for six cars, in the garage, carport and shed. All three areas offer plenty of space for extra storage. The two-car garage is open at the back to allow access through to the rear of the acreage. A ride on mower will be included in the sale for whoever is lucky enough to mow the extensive lawns. The home also has solar panels and water tanks. There are security grills and fly screens on all windows, and the home is airconditioned throughout. The long lowset layout of the home ensures cross breezes are invited in too.

As well as being an absolute sanctuary as a home, 1020 Dayboro Road is also located five minutes to Pine Rivers Golf Course, and Pine Rivers Pony Club. Old Petrie Town and North Petrie Country Park are two minutes away. There are two lake picnic areas, also five minutes away, at Lake Kurwongbah and Lake Samsonvale. There is plenty of rowing and other water action on Lake Kurwongbah too, either to partake in yourself, or to watch as a spectator.

Kurwongbah in the Pine Rivers Shire is a fast growing family oriented community with a University campus stage one already open. Genesis Private School is nearby at Warner, the Petrie Station main north line is 10 minutes away, and the Bruce Highway northbound and North Lakes Shopping Centre are just 15 minutes from home.
