Rainforest Home
"She's right," I thought, "I don't really want to part with it either: it's just a unique spot, and private
places like this with tropical rainforest and a creek are practically impossible to get any more."
"And yet" said Arnie (that's her real name, by the way) "We can't keep them all. I suppose we
must sell it."
Sigh... Funny thing about wives: they are right most of the time, and mine more than most.
OK, so we have this wonderful house for you to buy. We love it, but why would you want
to live there?
Here's a few great reasons:
- Vendor Finance: Yes, we will consider financing part or all of
it
(less deposit) until you get your finances sorted out. As an example,
$20,000 deposit and $930.82 per week.
(Wow! Banks want at least ten percent deposit, or $55,000)
Or get a bank loan for part and we finance the rest, so this could be a true
no-money-down investment. - Completely private: from the
gate you cannot see up the curving driveway, in fact
you wouldn't even know there was a house there - The peace of 5 acres of tropical rainforest (no annoying neighbours)
- Crystal clear rocky creek borders your property
- No water worries (permanent water supply)
- Endangered
species wandering through your garden
(you don't hear about it, but there are fewer cassowaries left than pandas) - "Infested" with bright tropical butterflies
- Huge house built for tropical lifestyle
- Large verandah one end, covered patio the other.
- Open plan kitchen and walk-in pantry
- Large lounge area and dining area
- Family room
- 2 bathrooms (one is ensuite with dual access from family room)
- 3 bedrooms (one with it's own private verandah)
- Covered
parking with direct access to house (we got six in there at one
stage, but four vehicles would be more comfortable) - Large shed, plus chook run and dog compound.
- Completely renovated/renewed (and I mean completely. Including...
- Sanding and refinishing the beautiful Black Bean flooring
- New kitchen (cabinets, stainless steel stove & dishwasher, sink, taps, tiling etc)
- New Qwila timber verandahs with...
- Matching rails and stainless steel wire balustrade
- New bathroom fittings, furniture and retile
- "Liquid Tile" family room and patio

- New roof
- Fresh gravel on driveway
- Created large open grassed space around house
- Cleared walkway to creek
- Just 9 minutes to town and shopping (Tully)
- 30 mins to gorgeous Mission Beach with access to reef fishing and tropical islands
- Great fishing in the Tully and Hull rivers is even closer
- 2 hours north to Cairns
- 2.5 hours south to Townsville
- Amazingly
low price for something unique: $550,000 (from us. $575,000 through agent)
Sounds like your idyllic spot? Well don't just sit there! We will shortly advertise in
Brisbane, Sydney, and Melbourne. There will be lots of competition from others wanting
to trade "dry, overcrowded, manmade" for "peaceful, private, natural".
And with interest rates as they are, I doubt that such a rare opportunity will last.
So call me, Lance, on 0418 199 277 (Note that my lifestyle choice is NOT to
answer the phone on a Friday because that's the day I spend completely with
Arnie, so leave a message please. I do get them, and I do call back!)
