If you are looking for the perfect property 30 minutes north of Yeppoon, close to the Byfield Store, State School, Livingstone Shire Library and Byfield National Park, look no further.
Tightly held and now on the market for sale is this Council Approved 19 x 8.5m farm shed, on a very private block with a scenic north-east aspect to Mt. Atherton. The 4-door shed has a 3m wide covered veranda, 5m roof height and is cyclone rated C2. The 5th bay glass sliding door leads into the main 8.5 x 3m living bay with sink, cupboards, gas cook-top, power points, TV and NBN connection. There is the bonus of a cool room with an air conditioning unit that cools to 15 Degrees Celsius. Three rainwater tanks hold 40kL, and to beat the heat, there is a sparkling shipping container swimming pool.
The stand-alone solar system provides power for lighting, a refrigerator, 2 freezers, the cool room's air-con unit, pool pump, and pressure pump for the shed water supply. A backup generator is included in the sale. There is an ERGON pole and transformer near a house site with a view to Castle Rock.
The property has a good dam which was recently enlarged and deepened, a 30m bore drilled in 2013 with high quality fresh water, and 3 large irrigation tanks holding 60kL in total. There are dozens of organically farmed fruit trees including citrus, bananas and custard apples. Within a 50 x 50m mesh-fenced enclosure is a large vegie garden. A secure 6 x 6m chook pen houses a small free-range flock. About 25 acres of pasture have been rested for over 10 years without being grazed, burnt or sprayed with herbicide. The boundary is fenced with hinge wire to exclude feral pigs.
Byfield is the gateway to Byfield National Park, renown for its rolling sand dunes, pristine beaches, rainforest-edged creeks and rugged mountains. It forms one of the largest unspoiled ecosystems on the east coast of Australia. For those keen for four-wheel driving, magnificent Five Rocks Beach is only half an hour away, as is Nine Mile Beach and Corio Bay. Hikers can walk to 5 Rocks Beach along the Creek to Coast trail.
The village of Byfield is a hub for craft and nature lovers. It has an inviting café and numerous attractions and accommodation houses are located nearby.
