Overview

Timeless Character Meets Versatile Work From Home Opportunity

A rare offering of character, versatility and enduring appeal, this distinguished Maryborough residence on approximately 657m² presents an exceptional opportunity to secure a home of substance, history and future potential. Introduced by a charming capped timber fence, the property features a central driveway with generous off-street parking. High gates positioned alongside the home and dedicated workspace provide privacy and security to the rear outdoor domain. A double tandem carport with a high roofline accommodates larger vehicles or caravans, complemented by a side garage for additional storage or workshop use. The main residence, privately positioned, reveals a classic central hallway framed by high ceilings and polished timber floors, with four principal rooms offering the flexibility of four bedrooms or a combination of bedrooms and formal living. Comfort is assured year-round with four split system reverse cycle air conditioners, ceiling fans, an open fireplace and a combustion wood heater. At its heart, a beautifully updated family bathroom complements the home's appeal, while the rear unfolds into the original miner's cottage-now a warm and inviting domain. A well-appointed galley kitchen with modern appliances anchors the space, flowing effortlessly to expansive open-plan living and dining zones. A defining feature of the property is the self-contained work from home building at the front. Having previously accommodated a successful hair salon, the space now presents as a blank canvas ready to be adapted to suit a wide range of business or creative pursuits (STCA). With its own entrance, bar area, separate amenities and split system reverse cycle air conditioning, it also offers flexibility for guest accommodation or a private studio. The adjoining garage further enhances its potential for future expansion or workspace integration. To the rear, an entertainer's haven awaits-framed by walls of glass and seamless indoor-outdoor connectivity. Polished concrete floors and generous proportions create the perfect setting for relaxed gatherings, whether hosting friends or enjoying major sporting events year-round. Opportunities of this calibre are seldom presented. Positioned within one of Maryborough's most sought-after pockets, this is a property of rare versatility-where lifestyle, business potential and timeless character converge. Inspect with confidence-properties of this nature are tightly held and rarely repeated.
