A piece of history has been lovingly renovated to create a private retreat to escape the rat race. The original site was the Irvinebank tennis courts and clubhouse which has been renovated into a two bedroom home, with potential for a third bedroom if required. The main living area is open plan and filled with natural light while maintaining a rustic feel with exposed timber and a slow combustion wood fireplace. Ceiling fans is the living room and end bedroom provide air circulation. The kitchen is tiled and well equipped and offers plenty of storage and bench space. Main bedroom also offers air conditioning for the warmer parts of the year. Internal bathroom is well sized and maintains the theme of the home.
The home also offers two enclosed verandas for you to enjoy, the rear backs on to bushland, giving the feeling of extra space. The property opens up in to beautiful established gardens with various fruit trees, raised veggie gardens and an impressive chook pen – which all lend themselves to a self sufficient lifestyle.
The main property features colourbond fencing and offers two additional buildings which are currently set up as workshops/studios but have provisions in place to turn them into livable dwellings with option for Air BnB or a large family. The additional top block is fully fenced and offers a timber cabin and storage shed expands the property even further and allows you the option to divide and sell or keep the extra space for yourself – the choice is yours.
Located 2 hours drive from Cairns, Irvinebank has all the services of a small township, with a primary school, tavern, post office as well as fantastic walks and the secluded Jumna Dam which is a great spot to go fishing, canoeing or camping with the family.
This home is selling as a walk in walk out situation including all furniture, gardening tools and equipment, and $3000 worth of stock pile of wood for the fire!
Water is supplied as rainwater tanks, town water and there is also a bore.
