175 Chelmans Rd, Dalrymple Hts

Rare Piece (Peace) of God’s Country – Is This Your New Home?

Imagine living on just under 9.5 Acres (3.835 Ha) within the foothills of Mt Dalrymple, with rainforest, eucalypt and historic trees giving you privacy with your own waterfall. This gem has arrived on the market for serious buyers wanting a change of lifestyle.

This historic property is located west of one of Queensland’s thriving coastal cities (Mackay), on top of Australia’s unique Clarke Range.

The road from Mackay will lead you through the famous Pioneer Valley to the bottom of the Eungella Range. While driving the majestic incline up, waterfalls cascade the mountainside, enticing you to the top; to the Pinnacle of the Pioneer Valley; The Eungella Township; just over an 80km drive. Then a 30-minute drive north to this tranquil private hidden treasure.

Pictures cannot describe this stunning property. Driving in gives you goose bumps.

Close your eyes! Listen to the music; the purest freshwater creeks flow with a beautiful waterfall. Rainforest trees moving to the breeze and abundant endemic wildlife. Open them! Yes! It’s another, do you see what I see 🎶 Views over the rainforest and neighbouring pristine salad-bowl farmland in the distance. You have arrived home.

The original home, built and used in the Eungella Township, was moved in the early 1930s to its current location. You can find the story about the move via the Historical Society.

It now features 4 large bedrooms + art/craft room that has been used as a extra bedroom/office, dining room, open space kitchen with incredible historic wood bench top and combustion stove / dining and multiple living areas / two functional fireplaces (one in the large entertaining area with pool table the other in the main lounge room), 3 bathrooms and a separate laundry. The large fully covered veranda stretches three sides of the home; perfect for all-year-round living and entertaining. The house yard is fully fenced.

There is also the original, very solid historic dairy still standing proud on the property. One of the biggest in the day, which the current owners have started to convert into another private living space, with 2x living/kitchenette/bedrooms each with its own ensuite that could be a teenage retreat or create an additional income once complete.

The pastured area of the property is also fully fenced and is currently running sheep for the local mobile butcher to visit and fill your freezer with love, but whatever the configuration you dream, the opportunity to be as self-sufficient as possible, or partially off grid, is doable.

There are greenhouses and several raised garden beds. Established citrus and banana, with several water tanks on the property with rain water run-off and pump up as required. There are even some private camping and meditation spots under shade for friends and family when they visit and play.

It’s more than a Quintessential Paradise! It’s a home with a load of history. Are you the family to carry it on?

We are screening for the right custodian/s to continue to nurture the love and evolution of this historic property . If you feel like a change and would like to live alongside The Clarke Rangers who are building the right dreams for the County of Hillalong Parish of Eungella, please call Deb to arrange a private viewing.
