In the Noosa Hinterland we are proudly uncovering this most encompassing property, known as ''Ridgewood Retreat''. A true hideaway rainforest gem. The pictures tell the story but please read through to the end, this property is really special.<br/><br/>Literally 8 minutes from the township of Cooroy, 22 minutes from the central hub of Noosaville and 30 minutes to Noosa Beach and Hastings Street. 10 acres of elevated rainforest, ensures you live in peace, tranquility and privacy, without the problem of isolation.<br/><br/>Access is through a remotely controlled gate, up the winding driveway to the two homes. Keep in mind, this property is not just about two homes stuck on top of a hill - this is a world away from just brick and mortar. The point of difference, which makes it so unique is the rainforest surrounding the homes with many walkways throughout the large 10 acre property.<br/><br/>And now to the grounds proper – the spring fed as well as catchment dam spills over a causeway to the creek. The blend of palm groves around the dam leads to the rainforest area proper, threaded by another creek with attractive conversation areas and billabongs – soaring fig trees, bloodwoods, wild gingers. Wildlife abounds – platypus, bearded water dragons, and all manner of birds, to name a few, parrots, doves, owls, lorikeets, kookaburras and finches. A theme everywhere is ample parking – 4 cars under the house and massive expanse of garaging, workshops and sheds - room for boats, cars and machinery not too far from the main houses. We believe room for between 8 and 11 cars in all.<br/>Behind is the pest proofed garden enclosure for your herbs and veggies. Also, a vermin proof chook run and shed.<br/><br/>The grand rustic main home is entered through a soaring foyer, opening to the TV area, kitchen to the right and a lounge. Two bedrooms and one bathroom on this level, and then up to the bridge linking the two master bedrooms, at opposite ends of the top floor, decks off each. Back to the lower level, and a huge deck along the view side, which overlooks the half acre dam and stunning landscape. The second house is all on one level, linked to home one by a timber breezeway. Entry is through a covered external entertaining area, into the living/TV rooms, adjacent to the kitchen and dining. Multi-generational living at its best. In all, around 579 m2 internally and 318m2 externally – room for everyone. Three bedrooms and two bathrooms are at the end of the house, accessing again the continuing deck from home 1. Between the two homes is the wow factor pool and its linked entertaining area. A cascading waterfall instils a sense of calm. Again, plenty of room, both covered under a thatched roof Bali hut, and open air, with a BBQ and preparation area. Behind is the very useful arts and crafts studio – it has seen good use with our current owners – maybe its yoga for you?<br/><br/>Extensive use has been made of natural timbers and materials in the homes – cypress pine and Oregon, and the worktops and stairs<br/>are made from one single Sydney Blue Gum tree. Both homes have wood-burning heaters, and there is plenty of cut firewood ready for when it gets cold! Both stoves are dual fuel, and high quality. To top it off, we have 4.6 kw of solar power on the roof.<br/><br/>The opportunities are endless, everything from a natural health retreat, through Airbnb to simply a refuge for you and your family to indulge your desire to fulfill your lifestyle ambitions and dreams.<br/><br/>So much to see and not enough room to write in one narrative, so book your inspection with David and Theodora Garwood who are available to show you this property over the Christmas New Year period.
