196 Benian Road The Palms QLD 4570

Welcome Home to "The Palms View" at 196 Benian Road, The Palms.

If peace and quiet is key and you have a love of wildlife & birdlife, then this home, backing onto state forest at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, could be just what you've been searching for. This 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom property is perched high on the ridge with panoramic 180 degree sweeping views across the valley and surrounding mountain ranges. Gympie township can even be seen in the distance, making the view more spectacular as suburbia lights up across the horizon at sunset.

The rear deck is where the current owners spend most of their time, and with an outlook like this it's easy to see why. Birdwatching is a favourite past time with an array of feathered friends who have made the surrounding trees home and delight in the birdbath that the owners have placed in the gardens. The rare and endangered "Powerful Owl" and "Yellow Bellied Glider can also be seen on a regular basis. Kangaroos and goannas are regular visitors, feeling safe enough to spend time on the property and a registered Koala corridor makes this property even more special.

You'll feel like you're a million miles away in this bushland sanctuary but you're still only 10 minutes away from the Southside shopping precinct, schools, Gympie Showgrounds and numerous sporting facilities. The school bus even comes to the front of the driveway at the end of the road.
