A Rainforest Hideaway to Savour…
Amber Werchon Property presents to the market, 354 Sippy Creek Road, Ilkley; this private, leafy sanctuary on a flat 2.47-acre parcel framed by lush, verdant rainforest, with abundant native flora and fauna – in a resplendent setting, is truly a tranquil oasis in harmony with nature. It is nicely situated right on the border of Tanawha and Ilkley.
The property itself is called 'Jillaby Downs' – indigenous for "where two creeks meet" and a tree-lined driveway takes you to the main residence, huge shed with two studios, and machinery shed; all of this tucked well away from the road, it's like discovering a clearing in the forest.
The home itself comprises five bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living areas, quality kitchen, wrapround covered deck with north-east aspect overlooking saltwater pool and beyond to forest, plus separate laundry; and a well-designed family-friendly, functional floor plan.
Features of the home include porcelain tiled flooring throughout, new split system air-conditioner, ceiling fans, security screens, gas cooktop, stainless steel appliances, stone benches, separate shower and bath in family bathroom, gas hot water, and 22-solar panels (powering house & studio). There is also a near-new saltwater chlorinator for the pool.
Infrastructure on the property include a 2-bay machinery shed with workshop and adjoining carport (covered parking for five vehicles); bore with brand new pump with a 4,500 gallon flow per hour; 2 x 10,000L concrete rainwater tanks with new pump; and a building with two self-contained, fully insulated air-conditioned studios each with bathroom and kitchenette, plus storage/loft and patio – the solid silky oak door on the studio originates from the Maleny Police Station.
The studios can be used for a variety of purposes and has been utilised in the past for sound recording, yoga, and workshops; it is wonderful space for a multitude of uses that many change and evolve over time, and a quality steel-frame construction for long-term durability. This shed area also has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathroom within it.
Established native trees including majestic eucalypts, fruit-bearing trees providing a wide range of fresh produce from garden to table – are among this property's delights; you will also be serenaded by sweet birdsong and able to observe some of the rarest of species, along with regular sightings of kangaroos, lace monitor lizards and more, it's even a native bee haven…all things bright and beautiful, this property has them all!
Located on the border of Tanawha and Ilkley – two of the Sunshine Coast's most desirable acreage belts; with quick easy access to the M1, the university and premium schools are a 10 minute drive, coast beaches and hospitals are 20 minutes, and it's only an hour to Brisbane International Airport.
Owners have relocated overseas, and this truly incredible property must be sold; they have made many cherished memories here, and now it's time for you to make yours! Call Dan Lal or Kerry-Anne Crowley to book your private inspection as soon as possible.
