18 Acre Sustainable Farm with Historical Homestead

Now more than ever we are coming to appreciate a slower, healthier and more self-sufficient lifestyle. Here is the perfect opportunity to create a sustainable life, without having to forego the convenience of all the modern day necessities and creature comforts afforded by coastal living.

Partly cleared and partly natural bushland, the gently sloping 7.37Ha block provides a lovely balance of nature, privacy and function. North facing, the farmland is ready for cropping or grazing, having previously been used to farm citrus and strawberries. Set well back from the road and perched high above the open farmland, the original farm house dates from circa 1890 and was moved to its current site in the 1970’s.

Largely original, the home has had some updates over the years without compromising its Federation style charm including VJ timber walls, soaring ceilings and classic timber fretwork. One of the highlights of the property is sweeping rural outlook from the verandahs, it will be a daily treat for the new owners.

The highset home is complimented by a double carport and 6x6.5m powered farm shed, pretty gardens and a spring fed dam with pump on the property which has been used in the past to irrigate crops.

  • Classic bathroom with enormous picture window and claw foot bath
  • Wide north facing verandahs wrap around 3 sides of the home

Chevallum is very much in the spotlight for a number of reasons. Its large and mostly undisturbed natural bush blocks appeal to those who crave a gentler and slower, country lifestyle. Just 14 minutes from Buderim, and under 20 minutes to Maroochydore, local surf beaches or the airport, its very central location makes it super convenient.

For the family with children the property is just 2km from the small and friendly Chevallum State School and the bus to Burnside High is right at the gate, local colleges also provide nearby pick up points. For Brisbane commuters, Palmwoods tarin station is just 5km away.

There are numerous farm gate fresh produce and seedling suppliers in the immediate area, testament to the quality local growing conditions. Put paddock to plate into practice, growing your own fruit and veggies, add some free range chickens and ducks or even a few paddock pals, the ultimate in fresh and healthy living.

It’s time for our current owners to put up their feet after 35 years of raising their family here, will your family begin its new chapter in Chevallum?
