Real Estate: Historic Mapleton gem, Braehead, is now on the market

Braehead is a 42-acre property and only minutes to Mapleton. 

AGENT’S CHOICE: 563 Delicia Road, Obi Obi, Qld

Owned by the same family for generations, Braehead is 42 Acres of fertile, freehold, rural land that sits opposite the Mapleton National Park.

“In the area you can enjoy horse trail rides, bushwalking amongst birdlife and natures wonders,” said selling agent Vanessa Brunton.

“I had the pleasure of selling the land behind Braehead some years back and it was a great   privilege to have known the late Ted and having him walk me over his family’s land.

“He told me many stories of growing up on the land and how his Braehead Nature Refuge was the first to be listed on the Sunshine Coast Council — providing 100 hectares of remnant rainforest in order that a plethora of birdlife and native animals be protected for generations to come.

“The family has raised cattle, prize-winning horses, chooks, ducks and geese all on this productive farmland. The views are incredible and you’ll be starstruck by the night sky.

“If you’re looking to build, then a new country home would be a magical addition to 563 Delicia Road.”

The property is only six minutes drive into Mapleton Village which offers an IGA supermarket, BP Service Station, Doctors, Cafes and speciality shops plus the iconic Mapleton Pub just up from the Mapleton School.

Nambour is just 15 minutes away while it’s a short 30 minute drive to the best beaches on the Sunshine Coast and just over an hour to Brisbane.
