HISTORIC SCHOOLHOUSE HAVEN
Introducing Euluma Creek Schoolhouse, a rare and exciting opportunity steeped in history and graced with location.
Established in 1935 as a school for the settling families in the Julatten hinterland, a place where the adventurous teacher lived and joyful children filled the classroom until 1951. The stunning handcrafted school house, built using high quality local timber, is positioned ideally on a south facing, gentle slope with sweeping views. The property overlooks lush fertile sugarcane and grazing farmlands with endless views of Black Mountain and the coastal ranges beyond.
Fast forward to 2022 and Julatten is now a highly sought after fringe rural area of North Queensland with a sublime tropical climate and close proximity to iconic coastal and inland townships. A place to escape the hustle and bustle, live the slow life and enjoy a private oasis.
Euluma Creek Schoolhouse stands proud today as a fitting tribute filled with memories from early pioneers. Meticulously restored by the current custodians who have enjoyed an enviable Julatten lifestyle benefitting from the modern comfort upgrades.
Ring the historic school bell from the charming verandah and enter the ground floor via the formal front door or the oversized bespoke timber French doors. Inside the open plan living with a featured exposed beams ceiling, vintage pot belly stove, a dynamic kitchen with granite benchtops, marble backsplash, oodles of storage and a focal freestanding oven. A tiled family size bathroom is easily accessible as is the laundry for life on the land. Upstairs is the nostalgic timber lined classroom and hat room. The teacher's quarters have been gently converted to a master bedroom and ensuite with dreamy views from the original hand crafted timber casement windows. The second and third bedrooms, on the other side of the classroom, complete the upper floor plan.
Adjacent to the schoolhouse is a fully self-contained guest home, an aesthetic modern replica with a private patio and large glass sliding doors that open to a studio lounge and bedroom space with hardwood timber flooring. Together with an alcove kitchen and combined bathroom and laundry makes this an ideal multi-purpose addition to the property. A picturesque spot to welcome visitors or run as a separate Airbnb rural retreat.
Sitting stately on parklike grounds across six acres, including a veggie patch, an alluring Bamaga Satin Ash tree lined driveway and a plantation backdrop of Caribbean Pines, is the home of your dreams. The Grass Tree has been documented to be growing happily since Captain Cook sailed along the tropical north coastline in 1770.
Also included, is a two bay shed and carports which provide space for machinery, a boat, a workshop or perhaps a classic car or two. The stables within one of the fully fenced paddocks, will provide shelter for horses or other livestock.
This is a rare and exciting opportunity to acquire such a property including location, history and excellent original condition, with so many exquisite features of this treasured Schoolhouse.
