There's a certain magic that comes with a traditional Queenslander, and the moment you arrive at 24 Queen Street you can feel it. Set on a rare 1,012sqm block, this home doesn't just offer space-it offers possibility, lifestyle, and the kind of timeless character that never goes out of style.
You enter through a screened porch, a practical and welcoming feature that makes the most of cool breezes and provides an easy transition into the home. From here, the character unfolds: soaring high ceilings, polished timber floorboards, and intricate fretwork that immediately remind you of the craftsmanship and charm that define these beloved homes. Every detail whispers of history, yet it all feels perfectly suited to modern living.
The living areas are open and inviting, designed for both relaxation and connection. At the heart of the home is a large sunroom bathing the interior in natural light and offering a beautiful vantage point over the lush surrounds. It's the kind of space that can be anything you need-a second lounge, a playroom, or simply a quiet retreat to read and unwind.
Accommodation is generous, with the three main bedrooms offering plenty of space and comfort. Each room has its own sense of retreat, enhanced by those high ceilings and timber floors that carry through the home. The fourth bedroom, tucked neatly on the verandah, is smaller in scale but filled with potential-ideal as a study or a guest room when needed.
The kitchen has been fully renovated, bringing a contemporary edge to this classic Queenslander. Modern cabinetry, quality appliances, and generous bench space make it a highly functional hub of the home, while still sitting comfortably within the property's character-rich style.
Downstairs, the practicality continues. A roller door opens to the garage, with plenty of room for parking and opens into a large storage area with a secure, lockable gate plus the convenience of a laundry area and an additional toilet-features that make day-to-day living smoother and give you options to expand how you use the home.
Step outside, and the lifestyle story really begins. The backyard stretches wide across the 1,012sqm block, framed by lush tropical plantings that set a tranquil scene and hint at the possibilities to come. There's so much space here-whether you dream of landscaped gardens, outdoor entertaining areas, or simply a place for children and pets to enjoy freely. It's a true tropical setting, full of life and potential, and a rare find so close to the heart of the city.
And that's the real beauty of this address: while you feel immersed in greenery, you are just moments from everything North Ward is famous for. The Strand, Castle Hill walking tracks, the local cafés and restaurants, and everyday conveniences like shops and schools are all close by. The city is only minutes away, yet when you're at home, you're surrounded by the calm and character of a true Queenslander sanctuary.
24 Queen Street isn't just a house. It's a home that has stood the test of time, blending character and charm with practical updates and endless space to make your own. It's a home where stories have been written for decades-and now it's ready for the next chapter.
