Build Your Dream Home – Enjoy your hobby farm and experience over 15 acres of serenity
THE PROPERTY
Rarely does a property come to market that ticks every box — space, functionality, charm, water security and an enviable hinterland address. 84 Hunchy Road, Palmwoods is that property. Set across 6.27 hectares of flat to gently undulating, fully useable land, this is the blank canvas lifestyle opportunity the Sunshine Coast Hinterland has been waiting for.
Whether you dream of building your forever home, establishing a working hobby farm, running horses or simply escaping the relentless pace of modern life — this property gives you the platform to make it real. The land is cleared, productive, and purpose-ready.
A relocated character home provides accommodation while you plan and build, and the large on-site shed offers generous storage, workshop or parking space from day one. With multiple paddocks already fenced — a legacy of its life as a thriving alpaca park — the infrastructure is in place and ready for whatever direction you choose to take.
FLAT, FUNCTIONAL & FULLY USEABLE
This is not steep, difficult hinterland country — this is the good stuff. The land at Hunchy Road is predominantly flat to gently rolling, making it highly practical for a wide range of uses. Fenced paddocks provide ready grazing for horses, cattle, alpacas or sheep, while the productive orchard — planted with olives, lime, orange, mango, banana and a variety of other fruit trees — speaks to years of careful land stewardship.
Water is the lifeblood of any rural lifestyle property, and here you have it in abundance. The property’s own dam provides reliable, independent water supply — a significant and increasingly valuable asset in the hinterland.

ABOUT PALMWOODS
Nestled in the foothills of the Blackall Range on the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, Palmwoods is one of Queensland’s most loved and liveable small towns. With a resident population of approximately 4,500 people, it punches well above its weight in character, community and liveability.
The town centre offers a charming main street with boutique cafes, local restaurants, a supermarket, medical services, and a highly regarded state primary school — everything a family or tree-changer needs within walking distance. The Palmwoods Hotel is a beloved local institution, and the weekly farmers’ markets draw locals and visitors alike.
Positioned just off the Nambour Connection Road, Palmwoods enjoys effortless access to the Bruce Highway, Maroochydore, Caloundra and the wider Sunshine Coast. The Sunshine Coast Airport at Marcoola is within approximately 30 minutes’ drive, making interstate travel straightforward.

SUNSHINE COAST HINTERLAND LIVING
The Sunshine Coast Hinterland is widely regarded as one of Australia’s most spectacular and sought-after lifestyle destinations. Stretching across the Blackall Range from Maleny to Montville, Mapleton to Flaxton, this region offers a compelling blend of elevated position, lush subtropical surrounds, cooler mountain temperatures and a deeply rooted sense of community.
Life here moves at a different pace — and that is precisely the point. Morning mist rolling across the paddocks. The sound of kookaburras at dawn. A slower rhythm that reminds you what living is really about. This is the Sunshine Coast Hinterland at its finest.
Breathe in. Switch off. Reconnect. Hunchy Road is ready for you.
