Home that’s on offer for $320,000 once had a very different purpose

If you’re after a quirky home that’s outside of the box, then look no further.

Set on just over 17 hectares of vacant land in Deepwater, Queensland, lies a set-up of four shipping containers, one of which you can live in.

Listed by RE/MAX Coastal Lifestyle, the very unique property at 137 Oceania Court is on offer for $320,000.

“Sure it needs some work, but it would be quite comfortable once this was done,” agent Sue Robertson states on the listing.

The location is described as a “great getaway block” that’s perfect to relax and unwind, with a dam, two quiet beaches and four tidal waterways nearby.

A roof above two of the shipping containers also allows for an undercover, outdoor entertaining area.

Should the future buyer wish to call the property home, full-time, a few systems are already in place.

Power and phone access is available along the boundary, as stated on the listing, and there’s also a school bus in the area and a rubbish bin collection.

Rates are around $1,100 per year, mail is delivered five days a week and Coles are able to deliver to your shipping container door.

Should the buyer wish to pop out for hardware supplies, takeaway food or booze, they can head to the local stores which are approximately 18 kilometres away.

Deepwater is a coastal locale in the Gladstone Region of Queensland and is around 355 kilometres from Brisbane.

Known for its fishing and secluded location, the area has a population of just 215 and an average age demographic of 40 to 59 years.
