EARLY 1900'S RESTORED QUEENSLANDER - RICH IN CHARM & CHARACTER
This meticulously restored period home is packed with gorgeous character and is abundant in heart-warming appeal. This early 1900's residence is perched on a magnificent 1358sqm block, the landscaped surrounds are something you see at your local botanical gardens. Featuring all the hallmarks of the era including timber fretwork & balustrade, led light casement windows, beautiful polished timber floors and VJ walls throughout combined with 12ft ceilings. There is a real sense of warmth and belonging here, so much so that you may not want to leave.
Typical of the style, the 220sqm (approx) layout is derived around a long central hall with a plush runway carpet. To the southern side, you will find a very generous size lounge & formal dining area, which flows out onto the large third living area, or easily a teenagers retreat/bedroom. The northern side contains two very large bedrooms, the master complete with an ensuite. In addition, there is a large multi-purpose room, currently setup as an office. The rear of the home has a beautiful aspect from the colonial-style kitchen out over the backyard, which adjoins the dining, 2nd living area & main bathroom.
Outdoors, the large entertaining deck is the perfect arrangement. Complete with spotted gum decking & colourbond roofing, this retreat remains cool in the warmest of temperatures. The yard is completely pet-friendly, the laundry positioned out the back, which includes a toilet for when working in the yard. The grounds are simply to die for, you will find yourself roaming with a cup of tea, whilst absorbing the sounds of birds chirping & bees buzzing. There is a full length bitumen driveway to the large 12m x 6m powered shed, allowing heaps of room for cars, plus includes a workshop area. The caravan can be easily stored to one side at the front of the shed, allowing access for vehicles in & out.
An oasis of peace and privacy yet moments to Stocklands Kensington, CQ University & Sandy Hook River – it's hard to imagine a better lifestyle spot.
