Description: From the moment you arrive at the front gate of these 382.2 acres (154.7ha) you realise you have found somewhere truly special. Emu Hill offers an exceptional lifestyle opportunity for families where children can grow up riding horses and motorbikes, exploring nature, caring for animals and spending their days outdoors. Adding to its magic is pristine Colosseum Creek, running for approximately 2.6km along one boundary, providing a natural playground.
Surrounded by mountains, the property has a comfortable 3 brm early-1900s Queenslander Inside, the layout is practical and welcoming, with an open plan kitchen and dining area and a separate lounge room. The kitchen offers generous bench space, ample cupboards and an electric stove. All three bedrooms open onto wide verandahs that wrap around two and a half sides of the home, capturing beautiful views in every direction - cattle and horses in paddocks framed by mountain ranges. The bathroom, toilet and laundry are all separate, adding to everyday convenience. Hot water is electric and total rainwater collection is approx. 10,000 gallons supported by bore water for toilet flushing and an additional 2,000 gallon tank ready to be connected if required.
Around the home, a generous house yard is securely fenced with dog fencing and features established gardens, a peaceful sitting area and a fire pit overlooking magnificent 100+ year-old fig trees - the perfect spot for relaxed evenings.
Infrastructure is well catered for with a substantial 16m x 15m machinery shed offering 3.55m clearance and three PA doors. The shed is divided into two sections and is complemented by an 8m x 6m open storage area on a slab suitable for heavy machinery.
There is a chook pen and fruit trees include Bowen mangoes, mulberry, citrus varieties, bananas, paw paw and passionfruit, along with a raised vegetable garden.
The land itself is undulating with productive creek flats, ranging between approximately 81m & 108m above sea level. Recently sown pastures include a comprehensive mix of improved grasses and legumes (for a list, please contact me), and the property is capable of comfortably running around 80 breeders. There is a set of yards with head bail and loading ramp, good fencing throughout, a new back boundary fence and the land is divided into five paddocks. 50 split posts can be included in the sale.
Water across the property is exceptional, with two dams, numerous springs, a lagoon, and a bore supplying approx. 792 gallons per hour (3,600 litres p/h) of potable water, pumped to a 5,000 gallon header tank that gravity-feeds troughs throughout the paddocks.
For families who enjoy fishing, boating and coastal adventures, the location is hard to beat. Miriam Vale is centrally positioned to Lake Awoonga, Lake Monduran, Agnes Water/1770 and Baffle Creek, making weekend escapes effortless. The township itself offers a general store, post office, hotel, chemist, bank, service stations, cafes and a Prep to Year 10 school, while Tannum Sands shopping is approximately 58km away. A local train station provides access to the Tilt Train.
