10 Merimbah Close Karana Downs, QLD 4306

Offered for sale for the first time in over 40 years this impressive acreage has frontage on two streets and a tremendous level of privacy. The home overlooks the local area from an elevated position which ensures great views, cooling breezes and all weather access.

The steel framed brick veneer home was designed with generous room sizes, while the facilities for outdoor living are outstanding. Adjacent to the magnesium inground pool is a convenient covered alfresco. A terrace runs the full length of the home whilst a huge enclosed entertaining area on the opposite side takes full advantage of beautiful bush views. You'll also find a delightful thatched Bali Hut positioned to make use of yet another awesome vantage point.

Inside the home are four bedrooms all with built-in robes. The sizeable main bedroom has a walk-thru robe leading to the ensuite. There's great separation from the entertaining areas at the other end of the home where you'll find both a formal lounge/dining room and a more casual living/meals area which is open plan with the kitchen and fireplace. Beautiful timber joinery in the living areas will definitely impress.

Elsewhere on the property is an air-conditioned studio/home office which has potential as a fifth bedroom. The lockable garage provides plenty of area for parking, workshop and/or storage as well as a 15 amp connection for charging caravans etc. A double carport allows for all weather access to the home and another covered annex is accessed via the drive-thru garage. There are additional sheds and storage located behind the home including an extra large chicken coop. For the green thumbed there are wire enclosed vegetable beds (I'm sure the possums hate those) and rainwater tanks provide water for garden use.

There's 6Kw's of Solar Power and the recent addition of a solar battery has basically eliminated power bills for the current owner. The bird life is abundant and wallabies hop across the backyard. An ideal viewing spot for the local wildlife is the charming timber bridge which crosses the gully on this magnificent acreage.

This quiet cul de sac is only minutes from all the local facilities.... shops, golf club, bowling club, Mount Crosby State School and numerous bushwalks. Karana Downs is a family friendly community and a peaceful escape just over half an hour from the centre of the Brisbane CBD and around 15 minutes from the heart of the Ipswich CBD. Residents have freeway access to the Gold and Sunshine Coasts as well as to Toowoomba and western areas via the Warrego Highway.
