The children are up before you. Morning light spills into their wing, books come off the shelves, and remote-control cars race along the timber boards. Soon, everyone finds their way to the kitchen, gathering around the recycled timber island as breakfast begins and the house opens to the breeze. On a private 1,220sqm parcel with dual frontage, this c.1917 residence has the space for childhood to unfold and family life to grow through every chapter.
Held for nearly twenty years by only its second owners, the home carries the warmth of a place lived in and loved. An architectural extension has opened its traditional rooms to modern family life, retaining leadlight glass, breezeways and timber floors beneath 3.2- metre ceilings. From the front verandah, the upper level flows on a single plane, welcoming shifting sunlight and clear sightlines to the outdoors. Open the house fully, let the air move through, and enjoy the privacy of your own green landscape.
There is a mango tree to climb, a flat yard for games and a 20-metre pool for summer afternoons and morning laps. From the kitchen and dining area, children remain in view as meals are prepared with European appliances and friends perch on the open window ledge, drinks in hand. Lunch becomes an afternoon BBQ on the terrace. In cooler weather, the outdoor fireplace keeps everyone together a little longer. Birthdays can fill the garden, Christmas can bring the whole family home, and the children can slip away to their own lounge while conversation continues.
Six bedrooms give the years ahead room to take shape. Three sit within the children's wing, alongside spaces for reading, Lego and sprawling on beanbags. The primary suite opens to a balcony and connects to an office, offering a quieter corner of the house. At the rear, the rumpus makes room for a pool table and another place to gather as children grow into teenagers. Dual garages, one with clearance for a boat or caravan, leave space for projects and adventures still to come.
Beyond the gates, school mornings and weekends feel equally well supported. Walk to childcare, Nundah State School, St Joseph's School, Mary MacKillop College and the cafes, shops and Sunday farmers' markets of Nundah Village. Ride along Kedron Brook, take the dog to the park or spend an afternoon at the sporting fields. Buses are just 85m away, Nundah station is 950m from home, and the CBD is 9.5km away.
