Rich in character and surrounded by beautiful established gardens, 22 Kidgell Street is a charming Queenslander that offers a wonderful sense of space, warmth and history. Set on an elevated 1,682m² allotment with sweeping views across the surrounding landscape and distant mountain ranges, this beautifully maintained home combines the timeless appeal of traditional Queenslander living with modern comforts, all within easy reach of Gympie's CBD.
From the moment you arrive, the home's classic weatherboard exterior, welcoming front verandah and beautifully landscaped grounds create an inviting first impression. Believed to date back to approximately 1925, the home has retained many of its original features, including soaring ceilings, traditional VJ walls and ceilings, polished timber floors and original timber windows and doors. A custom-crafted leadlight front door adds a special touch, while the spacious verandah provides a lovely place to enjoy your morning coffee, unwind in the afternoon or simply take in the surrounding views.
Stepping inside, the home offers comfortable living spaces filled with warmth and character. A wood-burning fireplace creates a cosy atmosphere during the cooler months, complemented by reverse-cycle air conditioning for year-round comfort. The renovated kitchen blends beautifully with the home's traditional style, featuring timber benchtops, a farmhouse sink, integrated dishwasher and a freestanding 900mm five-burner gas stove. Three bedrooms provide comfortable accommodation, serviced by two updated bathrooms, including a beautiful cast iron slipper bathtub that adds to the home's old-world charm.
Outside, the expansive grounds are a true highlight of the property. Beautifully established gardens, a variety of fruit trees and a magnificent mature fig tree create a peaceful, leafy setting with plenty of space to enjoy. Whether it's spending time in the garden, entertaining family and friends or simply appreciating the natural surrounds, there is something special about the lifestyle on offer here. Adding another unique element is the much-loved Gympie Hobbit House, a charming garden feature that has previously hosted community gatherings and creative events, bringing an extra touch of personality and history to the property.
The generous allotment also offers excellent practicality and future possibilities, with dual street frontage to Kidgell Street and River Road providing potential for subdivision, subject to council approval. A 6m x 6m garage with an adjoining 3m x 6m carport provides excellent vehicle accommodation and storage, complemented by a concrete driveway. Further improvements include a Colorbond roof and guttering replaced in 2024, a 6.63kW solar system, ceiling insulation and two water tanks for garden use.
Despite its peaceful, elevated setting, the property enjoys a convenient location within walking distance of local shops, cafés, schools and the river walk, with Gympie's CBD and everyday amenities just moments away. Offering the charm of a traditional Queenslander, beautiful established grounds, sweeping views and the added benefit of a substantial landholding, 22 Kidgell Street is a property with plenty of character and possibilities to explore.
