1190 Campbells Pockets Road

Tucked down a long driveway between fields of grass and open acreage, a country style home that blends into the beauty of Mt Mee. It encompasses glimpses of the distant ocean and sand dunes of Moreton Island from many locations throughout the land and tucked away for complete privacy with the backdrop of Tallowwood, Norfolk Pine, Duns white gum (eucalyptus dunni) trees. Walking tracks, track suitable for a quad bike and a support vehicle, open undulating land on 26 hectares of cattle grazing; dams, round yard, cattle crush, and the perfect position with breezes that come up from the coastline during the warmer months. Being a rendered concrete block home, and a deeply personal abode, it was designed and built in 1987 with the owner's cultural heritage at heart. A dream outside beehive shaped fireplace is positioned within the corner of the east facing covered veranda, capturing flickering flames of evening entertainment and the warmth of the morning sun. Silky Oak doors and a barn style entry, blackbutt interior timber beams and hooped pine-stained limed white ceilings, with terracotta tiling throughout the living areas, provide this home with a diverse country living experience. The country themed kitchen wall tiles were designed and made by a local Brisbane potter; the potter's task was to tie in the rendering colour of the home to the cabinets and sink colour, to which she did beautifully. Picture postcard views of nature are framed by large windows bringing the scenic greenery into the open plan living room warmed with a wood burning Kemland fireplace. From the living room large glazed French doors lead into a second living area with external doors too, this room is used for many home activities and extended inside entertaining. The kitchen has been designed with extra high cabinetry, dishwasher, gas stove, electric oven and a walk-in pantry. Lovely, treed views are enjoyed from the main bedroom with ceiling fan, walk-in robe, and a walk-through to the bathroom, and a separate powder room with a barn style door to the outside gardens. The walk-through from the main bedroom leads to a second large, air-conditioned room currently used as an office and guest bedroom with a built-in robe. Some of the most notable birdlife are Pacific Gaza, Regent Bowerbird (made famous at O'Reilly's Guest House), Noisy Pittas, Whip Birds, Tawny Frogmouths, native Parrots, Yellow Robins and Finches.
