Have you ever dreamed of living tucked away in a secluded Sunshine Coast valley, with nature as your closest neighbour? A place where the mornings begin with kookaburras calling, koalas echoing across the valley, and your coffee shared with Yellow Robins, Lewin’s Honeyeaters, Red-backed Fairywrens and curious swamp wallabies.
This is more than just a property — it’s a lifestyle for those wanting to live truly at one with nature, without sacrificing convenience. Privately positioned at the end of a quiet no-through road, yet less than 15 minutes from the Brisbane train line, this remarkable 4 hectare (10 acre) sanctuary offers peace, sustainability and a deep connection to the natural world.
Thoughtfully designed for a minimal environmental footprint, the beautifully crafted cottage offers warmth through timber floors and interiors that create a simple, cosy and peaceful retreat that is a balm for the soul.
The home features: - Spacious open-plan living and bedroom area (11m x 5m) - Separate bathroom with shower, toilet and laundry facilities - Large front deck overlooking the top dam - Potential to extend studio further (STCA)
Behind the home is a substantial 9m x 6m shed, previously used as accommodation, complete with sliding glass doors, windows and dual access doors.
Completely off-grid, the property is powered by over 12kW of solar with 24kWh of BYD battery storage, offering genuine self-sufficient living. A self-regulating septic system and established areas for vegetable gardens and fruit trees further enhance the sustainable lifestyle on offer.
Approximately 70% of the land is protected under a Voluntary Conservation Agreement (VCA) registered on title with Sunshine Coast Council, ensuring the natural beauty of the property remains preserved in perpetuity. With thousands of native trees having been planted years ago, the entire ecosystem is now coming to maturity, and the birds, animals and insects are returning in numbers. The Sunshine Coast Council provides funding for continued maintenance of the ‘100% weed-free’ status, plus subsidising the council rates payments. A specialist contractor helps the landowner perform a ‘weed sweep’ twice a year, looking for non-native vegetation that has been brought in by birds, animals or wind. This is an invaluable opportunity to learn more about the ecology of the property, on a one-on-one basis, with a recognised expert.
Adding further appeal, the property also offers additional income potential through a residence positioned at the top of the property, currently generating approximately $30,000 per annum.
25 Houghtons Road is a truly unique opportunity for those seeking a slower, more intentional way of living — where nature, privacy and sustainability come together in perfect harmony.
Please Note: The top residence is currently rented for $580per week until 16/08/2026.
