Do you have a dream to step outside the norm and drive your own future? Here is an opportunity to do just that on 18 excellent acres with New England Highway frontage in the “cold country” of the Granite Belt, south-east Queensland.

You will have an impressive 3 bedroom home plus 2 self-contained motel units, all of straw-bale construction, 18 acres (7.3 hectares approx) of usable and scenic land complete with trellised Cabernet Sauvignon vines and early Red Delicious orchard, a substantial spring fed dam and a substantial underground well.

From the sun-filled courtyard to the rear verandah, the home immediately invites you to enjoy a consistently comfortable temperature in any season, due to the design and straw bale medium. Double door access from most rooms to the outside is an appealing feature of the home, as are the huge walk-in pantry and separate office or storage room.

Two delightfully finished self-contained motel rooms are detached from the house, affording guests a private and comfortable stay. An up cycled barn with stable and a storage shed are charming and useful additions to the property and a 4 bay carport and various outbuildings complete a very diverse picture. The old railway line runs adjacent to a boundary giving a fantastic opportunity to see the steam train on its regular tourist run from Warwick to Wallangarra.

21 Straw House Lane offers an amazing opportunity to those looking for a superb self-sustainable lifestyle within 15 minutes to Stanthorpe or 25 minutes to Warwick and only about 3 hours to Brisbane.
