Step inside and you’ll immediately appreciate the warmth and character this home offers. Soaring raked timber ceilings, polished timber floors and an abundance of natural light create an inviting sense of space, while large windows frame the surrounding greenery, bringing the outdoors in at every opportunity.

Life here naturally spills outdoors. The expansive timber deck is the perfect place to entertain, unwind or simply enjoy the peaceful rainforest outlook. Whether it’s your morning coffee, a long lunch with friends or a quiet afternoon taking in the view, it’s a space you’ll find yourself using every day.

One of the things the current owners have loved most is the incredible sense of privacy. Hidden amongst the rainforest, there are no neighbouring homes to see and very little to hear beyond the abundant birdlife and the sounds of nature. During the wet season, two seasonal creeks flow through the property, creating a peaceful backdrop that’s both unique and surprisingly calming.

The flexible floorplan offers exceptional versatility, with four bedrooms, including a separate bedroom and bathroom downstairs. Ideal for extended family, guests, teenagers or those working from home, the space also provides the opportunity to add a kitchenette (STCA), creating exciting future dual-living potential.

Outside, you’ll discover a wonderful balance of open space and natural rainforest. A generous lawn provides room for children to play, pets to roam and family gatherings around the firepit, while the surrounding rainforest creates a peaceful sense of seclusion that’s rarely found so close to town. Established fruit trees provide homegrown mangoes, bananas, lychees and lemons, while the sparkling new swimming pool offers the perfect place to cool off after a day spent outdoors.

For those who love the outdoors, world-class mountain bike trails begin just moments away, making this an exceptional base for riders eager to explore one of Australia’s premier riding destinations. Walking trails, beaches and everyday conveniences are all within easy reach, offering a lifestyle that beautifully balances adventure and relaxation.

With a two-car carport, a driveway providing additional parking flexibility, ample room to build a substantial shed (STCA), and a location just minutes from Smithfield’s shopping, schools, caf&aecute;s and services, this property offers the best of both worlds—your own private sanctuary without sacrificing convenience.

Properties that offer this level of privacy, character and convenience rarely come to market. If you’ve been searching for a home that feels a world away from the everyday, yet remains close to everything you need, this is one you’ll want to experience in person.
