Nestled within the serene expanses of the Granite Belt, "Rocky Pines" presents a unique 107-acre freehold property that harmoniously blends modern living with environmental sustainability. Over the past eight years, this estate has been extensively developed to support a green lifestyle, ideal for retirees or those engaged in remote work, such as artists, writers, or academics.
The centrepiece of Rocky Pines is a modern, steel-framed residence spanning 228 sqm, featuring polished pine floors and soaring 9-foot ceilings that enhance its spacious layout. Spacious kitchen with quality finishes, 900mm gas oven, 5 burner cooktop. Two pantries, space for side by side fridge and freezer, plus a large island bench with breakfast bar-perfect for cooking and entertaining. The home is equipped with two expansive 3-meter wide verandahs; one fully screened to embrace the tranquil surroundings without the interference of elements, and the other open to welcome the refreshing breezes.
Comfort is paramount with air conditioning in the main bedroom and living areas, complemented by a wood stove and combustion heaters to provide warmth during the cooler months. Each room is fitted with ceiling fans to ensure a comfortable airflow throughout the year.
Energy efficiency is achieved through a 6 kW off-grid solar system backed by a 9 kVA diesel generator, ensuring uninterrupted power. Water resources are abundant, featuring two 23,000-litre firefighting tanks, an 86,500-litre rainwater reserve, and sophisticated plumbing facilities including a twin impeller pump from the on-site dam.
Practical additions to the property include two shipping containers that form the foundation for a 12m x 10.5m dome with 240-volt power, a 12m x 6m machinery shed, and easy-care gardens with an automatic sprinkler system. The botanical garden and established fruit trees and vines offer a delightful retreat into nature.
Security and privacy are provided by a 1.4-meter high exclusion fence encompassing approximately 6 acres with four gated accesses. Situated about 16 km from the bustling community of Texas and within a few hours' drive from Toowoomba and Brisbane, Rocky Pines ensures seclusion without isolation. Day care centre and bus to Texas State School up to year 10. Town centre comprises supermarket, bowling club, golf club, newsagent, medical centre, cafe, take away, hairdresser, library and rural store.
Additionally, the property holds potential for diverse uses such as small-scale farming, a homestay, or even a quaint camping site, further enhanced by the possibility of establishing a small quarry.
"Rocky Pines" is more than just a home; it is a versatile haven offering peace, productivity, and potential in the heart of nature.
