A Leaf Amongst the Forest

Maroondah is an Aboriginal word meaning, leaf. This makes perfect sense given the abundant forested area adjacent to 16 Maroondah Street. <br/><br/>Tucked-in amongst a secret thicket with Oak, Cedar, Elm and Norfolk the neighbouring streets, you’d expect a quiet and natural setting. But surprisingly, these streets are being developed with new-builds sitting atop lush lawns and only a sprinkling of the grand trees remain, standing guard as forest warriors.<br/><br/>Number 16 occupies a 1121m2 double-block (one Title) with two street frontages, at the corner of Minjerriba Road. Opposite, there’s a wooded Conservation Zone owned by Redland City Council, then across the road is the expansive Whistling Kite Wetlands, wrapping around to Centre Road. So, you’ll by surrounded by nature and birdsong.<br/><br/>Located at a convenient junction on the island, it’s near the public boat-ramp (off Barcelona Street); close to town and ferry service; and walking distance to Bowling Club, Community Centre, dog park and children’s playground. Nothing is far away, yet you’ll feel miles from care in this private setting.<br/><br/>If you’re after a building block on the edge of town, somewhere a bit quieter with fewer neighbours, then this site will meet your needs. It’s got a lot going for it:<br/><br/>• Selection of hardwood trees to retain or mill<br/>• Tall forest opposite & wetlands across the road<br/>• New-builds going-up<br/>• Level site with good access<br/>• Services already in street (power, water)<br/>• Good runoff<br/>• Excellent soil for growing produce<br/>• Close to everything<br/>• Nature on your doorstep<br/><br/>To make 16 Maroondah yours, call Chris McGregor on 0420 555 997. You’ll be living with nature; a mere leaf amongst the forest.
