0 KIN KIN ROAD COONDOO QLD
Having the spectacular Mount Coondoo in your backyard, enough land to make an income yet still have the privacy you have been dreaming of, then look no further.
This 69.4ha (171 acres) on the doorstep of the Noosa Hinterland extends to the top of Mt Coondoo (289m) with views from Rainbow Beach to Noosa Heads to the east and the Great Dividing Range and Mt Wolvi to the west. It looks over the low hills and lush valleys around Kin Kin and nearby Lake Cootharaba.
"Coondoo Springs" exudes an air of splendid isolation, from the deep shade of its ancient fig trees to the magnificent homestead garden. The property is 10 minutes' drive north of historic Kin Kin Village, renowned for its great food, art and scenery, and is approximately 35 minutes' drive from the beautiful Noosa beaches.
Over the years, Coondoo Springs has been a dairy farm, commercial orchard, operating quarry and cattle-grazing enterprise with the capacity to run 70 breeders comfortably. It has operated as a haven for campers (Coondoo Springs Camping) since the retirement of the cattle herd in 2019. There is the option to run cattle again, as stock handling facilities remain in place.
There is approx. 50 ha (125 acres) of flat to undulating land, which is a mix of sandy loam and rich black basalt soils suitable for cropping and/or grazing, with the remainder of the property running up to the summit of Mount Coondoo and along its spine for more than 600m with 360-degree views in parts. A 15-minute walk/climb will have you at the top of Mt Coondoo, leaving you spellbound by its stunning sunrise or sunset vistas.
The sandy loam and black basalt soils support a thick coverage of improved pastures, including native and introduced grass species and a vigorous nitrogen-enriching legume that covers the mountain.
The three-bedroom homestead, while requiring some modernisation, features locally grown and milled hardwood floorboards throughout. Its construction of timber frame and chamfer board rests on concrete stumps and under a galvanised iron roof. It is very well situated in a luxuriant home-stead garden amid rare orchids and bromeliads, citrus, dragon fruit and numerous other fruit bear-ing plants and species trees. It is set on a rise well back from the front gate and road, preserving the peace and quiet of Wolvi and Coondoo creeks where they rise on Mt Coondoo, seeping through private tracts of rainforest in a chain of ponds.
The home is serviced by rainwater tanks, and there are five dams, three of which are spring-fed, the largest equipped with pump. Average annual rainfall is 600mm (2010-2020).
