Overview

Historic Queenslander in the heart of Babinda

Sugar was first milled in Australia in 1864. The Mill at Babinda was opened in September 1915. This home was built soon afterwards. It was the original mill manager's house, and at the time was considered one of the grandest homes in the township. It probably still is! Sitting on a mouth-watering 1262 square metre corner block and just two blocks from the town centre, the possibilities are very exciting. The grand old Queenslander is presenting in quite good shape. It has been well-loved by its current owners, who have owned the property for 20 years. The house sits behind its picket fence well back from the street. On the porch at the top of the stairs, you are greeted by a glorious stained glass door that lets you know you are in for a treat. With soaring ceilings and recently polished floors, the period features have been largely retained. Think Finials and Breezeways, pressed metal ceilings and ceiling roses, Silky oak doors and casement windows, four-panel solid timber doors and Silky Oak and Queensland Maple French doors. Now, contrast that with the modern kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances. The floor plan is flexible to say the least. I am thinking four bedrooms upstairs and a guest bedroom with its own bathroom downstairs. Certainly, a space the teenagers would fight over. Added to this are a large loungeroom, a casual (or formal) dining room, and a separate office, study, or library. This house deserves a library and probably would have had one originally. Undercover parking for as many as 6 vehicles, but also a space that can be used for large soirees. This house is a classic piece of Australia's history with a tangible upside for the savvy buyers.
