A FEW MINUTES DRIVE FROM MERINGANDAN WEST- Set on approximately 134 acres in a quiet and truly beautiful pocket of Muniganeen, this exceptional rural property captures the essence of country living with Oakey Creek meandering past the boundary, rolling hills surrounding the home and birdlife filling the air. The calm here is remarkable, and yet Toowoomba is only a comfortable 30 minute drive away. The main four bedroom home has been designed for comfort, ease and connection to its surroundings. The enclosed entry, styled as a breezy mud room with fly screens, sets a relaxed rural tone from the moment you step inside. From here, timber bi-fold doors open into the light filled kitchen, living and dining area, creating an inviting central hub with high ceilings, natural timber floors and ceiling fans throughout. The well appointed kitchen offers electric appliances, a half dishwasher, great storage and a practical layout overlooking the main living space. The second living area includes the original cottage wood stove and this room flows seamlessly to the back covered deck which captures breathtaking views across the countryside and towards the creek. This is a place where you can sit quietly and feel the stillness settle around you, with nothing but the sounds of nature in the background. Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged, with two bedrooms positioned at one end of the home near the family bathroom, which includes a bath, a separate shower and toilet, while the remaining two bedrooms sit off the central hallway. One of these bedrooms features built in robes and the other includes a walk in robe. This section of the home also offers a practical layout with a separate shower and basin, a separate toilet with its own basin, and a small laundry area for added convenience. The property also features a superb self contained living space within the large shed, ideal for extended family or guest accommodation.

Approximately seven acres are cultivated at any one time, including for crops such as sorghum but upto approx. 30 acres of good cultivated land.
