Small acreage family property with stunning views across the rolling hills and pasture facing North East towards Mount Flinders in the Scenic Rim of Southeast Queensland on the beautiful land of the Ugarapul people. Teviotville is a short 8-minute drive from the township of Boonah, and 6 minutes from the quaint, historic village of Kalbar. We have ample natural wonders in the near vicinity with Mount French and other national parks, Lake Moogerah and Maroon Dam. A peaceful spot, with flat, grassed camping areas, fire pit area, a big sky full of stars, so much bird and other wildlife, chickens, and a family with 2 young lads to welcome you. Plenty of space for your pets. Rob, Lou, Angus and Hamish would love to show you around and share our new little patch of land in the beautiful Scenic Rim or of course leave you to enjoy the tranquility if you prefer.
