Set on approximately 3.5 acres with green rolling hills and the sound of a running stream as a backdrop, this property is simply enchanting.

Named Mankato (which means green Earth), the use of the surrounding environment is incredible, with upcycled timbers from the property utilised to create canopies, stairs, a horse shelter and serene seating areas. The setting entices wildlife, with abundant birdlife and wallabies visiting the property regularly.

The Property also offers two homes (perfect for dual living). The main property utilizes one wing of the house for BnB, the layout gives you limitless potential for living options. Ideal for extended families who want room to grow and those who love to entertain (your guests can stay with you).

The main entertaining area of the property is The Bunker which was featured in Owner Builder magazine. The building offers an enclosed space – ideal as a man cave, a place of solitude or an art studio. Outside The Bunker is where the space comes into its own, with an expansive outdoor entertaining space featuring a gathering area with natural canopy and BBQ area. There is a firepit area with stunning natural shelter (the ivy canopy is growing in beautifully), all taking in the views of the rolling hills with the sound of the running stream in the background.
If a bit of time out is more your speed, there are plenty of places to park yourself and enjoy the fresh air.

For the horse lovers, there is a beautiful paddock with a hand-built horse shelter to keep the feel of the property.

Best of all, Mankato is located in a family friendly location. There is a caf only a few minutes away that does great meals & great coffee. Beechmont School is about 3 minutes away, and you’ll be about 15 to 20 minutes to the heart of Canungra. And if you want to venture in to enjoy the best of the Gold Coast, it’s about 30 minutes to Nerang.

Do yourself a favour take a trip to the property and get a feel of what life could be like!
