88 Salisbury Drive, Julatten QLD 4871

If you've ever dreamed of escaping to a lifestyle property you'd be well advised to have a look at this Julatten offering that provides lifestyle in spades, in one of the world's best temperate climates, all within 25 minutes' drive of Port Douglas.

From the country style home to the primary four-bay shed, secondary two-bay shed, fresh water dam with jetty, intersecting creeks and five-and-a-half acres of stunning tropical gardens, lawns and natural bushland, this property really does have it all.

A wide, tree-lined concrete and river stone driveway meanders down to the home and secure two-bay shed that could provide the option for additional accommodation if desired.

The larger four-bay shed (currently used for car parking) is roadside and comprises three open and one enclosed bay. Attractive lawns and gardens surrounding the shed preface the feature stone stairs that provide an impressive formal approach to the country style home.

The entry portico and front porch preface the heart of the home - a breezy open plan space made for relaxing, entertaining, cooking and dining.

With its nature-inspired views, air conditioning and feature electric fireplace, the lounge is warm and inviting. Friends and family can choose to enjoy the spaciousness of the entertaining and dining area or gather around the kitchen with its integrated breakfast bar, stone benchtop, new oven and cooktop, dishwasher, dual sinks, ceiling fan, servery window and amazing views.

The views also feature prominently in the master suite that is located off the main living area. Offering air conditioning, a ceiling fan, light and bright shower ensuite and walk-in wardrobe, it doubles as your own private retreat.

A second comfortable bedroom is located next to the master while the third resides on the opposite side of the living area, along with the large family bathroom featuring a shower, corner spa bath, vanity and separate toilet.

Completing the offering inside is the laundry with its built-in storage, bench space and outdoor access and the double lock up garage that can also be directly accessed from inside.

Outside, it's hard to look past the stunning views that stretch as far as the eye can see encompassing lawns, gardens, paddocks and bushland to Black Mountain and the ranges in the distance. The expansive, covered, elevated patio has been designed to take full advantage of these views.

Beyond the patio, a sloping lawn area gives way to a mix of lush tropical gardens, palms and natural bushland through which the wide vehicle-access (concrete) pathway runs to the permanent freshwater dam that can be rain, creek, or bore-fed. At 70 metres depth, the bore also provides crystal clear drinking water.

Fully fenced to keep the kids and pets safe, this spectacular property also comes complete with a full-sized windmill for aerating the dam, creeks on two boundaries, a secondary pond, high flow water pump (22,000 litres/hour), water tanks, a range of fruit trees, veggie beds, established pathways, chicken coop, aviary and garden shed.

With so much on offer, this property deserves your personal inspection. For all the details contact Shane on 0409 417 316 or [email protected]
