Just over 9.5 acres of deep & wide absolute Coomera River frontage, private, mature tree-studded seclusion with main house, separate rented cabin, workshop and extensive list of strategic improvements incl. irrigation license Exp. 2111
Main Home is a modern-styled bungalow currently with 2 large bedrooms each with ensuite, huge billiard room (could be divided to 2 more bedrooms), 3rd WC, plus 4th WC & shower in double garage.
On the other side of the property is a fully SC 2 bedroom, 1 bath rented worker’s cabin featuring porch and carport PLUS a leased out working commercial nursery both providing robust rental income.
Prior to the vendor purchasing this property nearly 10 years ago, 2 Braeside operated as a commercial nursery and tree-farm for over 30 years. Today, there is a 4-decade legacy and wonderful variety of mature, exotic and native trees and cleared paddocks with areas of understory vegetation growing in richly improved, deep, alluvial chocolate soils. Quite literally, there is something flowering or fruiting at every time of the year which provides good cattle or horse grazing and a safe-haven for wildlife including resident koalas, possums and an amazing array of bird-species.
This rural residential property features a 2 bedroom (2019 extensive modern renovation) brick and thermal resistant glass principal residence in a mid-century tribute style, 7-star energy rating, the double garage with additional WC & ensuite, 1.5 x 2.6 m step in cold-room/wine storage, polished concrete floors to main living area, in-slab heat bank under floor heating, fireplace, modern lacquer and granite kitchen with butler’s pantry and SMEG appliances including 750 mm wall-oven, 6 burner gas cooktop, and waterfall island granite breakfast bar. Home has LED and feature lighting throughout, large master bedroom with massive WIR, marble and glass master ensuite with Somfy external auto retracting privacy blinds, bath, double granite vanity, two-person rainfall shower enclosure; additional 2 and half bathrooms, huge rumpus/games room*, outdoor covered patio with a 6x4 m plunge pool with Bionizer fresh water filtration, large capacity zoned ducted AC throughout, solar powered active roof space ventilation, fully screened windows, CCTV and back to base alarm system, twin 6.6 kWh solar arrays, solar HWS, massive 50,000 litre in-ground concrete water storage tanks.
*currently has full-size billiard/snooker table, however can be readily re-configured to 2 additional bedrooms with Jack-n-Jill bathroom, with plumbing/electrical in the walls already.
Adjoining the main house is a 150m2 high-roof steel portal-framed fully insulated-panel workshop with 66m2 cantilevered rear awning covered parking/wash down area, external SS sink with hot and cold water, and large double electric remote opening commercial grade roller doors.
Behind the high front fence and auto gate, the property has a private internal road leading to the 2 bedroom fully self-contained, fully serviced, air-conditioned cabin with balcony, and carport within its own fenced enclosure. The cabin has been rented to the same quiet and proven reliable tenant for over 5 years.
Also on this far side of the property unseen from the main house and accessed by the private internal road is two 120m2 nursery “poly-tunnels” and a 36m2 carport with concrete paved floor plus an area of flat ground about as big as a tennis court leased to a long-established wholesale specialist native plant breeder. (The small portable office, black-shade tunnel, WC and nursery-grow tables are his gear). Screened by vegetation, you don’t even know they’re there from day to day.
Both the cabin and native plant nursery generate passing income currently $37,020 p.a. PLUS electricity charged at actual consumption cost - all of which is really, really easy and proven hassle-free virtually passive income. Both tenants would stay on or the cabin could be used for an extended family, guests or even caretaker accommodation.
The property features extensive underground electricity infrastructure including two Energex supplies, dual-phase underground mains from the Braeside frontage, and 3-phase overhead from the riverfront to a pump house. The main house, cabin and nursery are all individually metered. Additionally, there is a ground mount back-to-grid solar panel array in the main paddock with approval for an additional 2 further arrays. This power is only used when water pumping and produces a further small net income. The owner has already laid underground cabling from the pump-house to the array for this future expansion.
Extensive underground irrigation lines commence at the riverfront with a 68mm pipeline leading to a series of spaced “hydrants” for irrigation, or stock water points, then 50mm to a second dam in the fully fenced separated main paddock, on to the plant nursery and all the way out to the dam near the front boundary. Future proofed, both dams could be topped up from the river if needed, but this has never been required in the 9 years of current ownership.
The main home, cabin, and nursery all have their own separate large water storage tanks and separate approved septic systems.
The main home has underground grey water recovery tank, pump and lines switchable from the front to the rear for garden or lawn watering - meaning not a drop is wasted.
Additional improvements/features include a 95m2 high-roof insulated panel clear-span roof utility area to the rear of the main workshop for further out of the weather work or protected machinery shelter. This could be readily upgraded to horse stalls, covered cattle yards, or enclosed for additional storage, etc.
A private concrete driveway branches to approach the main house with a roundabout and concrete turning/parking apron The Braeside end of the property (the home yard) is fully dog-mesh fenced. The main paddock has 4-strand barb-wire stock fencing and features 7 access gates at various locations. The high front security fence has remote auto-gate and pedestrian friendly key-pad for access or receiving a delivery if out. There is also an old chicken coup currently housing 4 chooks (has had up to 12) currently producing around 14 eggs per week.
Garden beds, pumpkin patches, an Espaliered fruit tree lattice, citrus, passionfruit vines and raised herb garden beds surround the house, ready for the kitchen or summer salad bowl.
With solar HWS, solar generating panels, fireplace, heat-bank floor, passive rent income, chooks, fruit trees and veggie patch, this is a very economical property to own and easy to live in.
For 8 of the last 9 years the vendor has grown out 5 beef-steers at a time from weaners to big fellas in the main paddock here which is a handy revenue stream and keeps the grass mowed.
Peace, high privacy and the pleasure of bird-song are features as there are few neighbours.
2 Braeside is secluded at the end of quiet cul-de-sac yet just 5 minutes to Maudsland village and the Coomera Lodge Hotel, or 10 minutes drive from the M1 at Oxenford , 11 minutes from Woolworths, Nerang. And by coincidence also 11 minutes to Woolworths at Pacific Pines. (If you prefer Coles, there’s one at Pac Pines 7 minutes away.)
Like all working rural/acreage properties, there’s always work on improvements in progress and it’s time to pass the baton to the next owner. The vendor is obviously very realistic and ready to do a deal to attract and secure a buyer.
In addition to the real property, an extensive list of rural plant and equipment will be offered by negotiation once the property is on-sold.
