Overview

Some Homes Have Features. This One Has A Soul.

Imagine finishing work on a Friday afternoon, pulling into your driveway and stepping through the front door of a home that immediately slows the pace of life. The polished timber floors glow beneath your feet. Natural light spills through the windows. The warmth of a crackling fireplace fills the living room during winter evenings while friends gather around for dinner and conversation that stretches long into the night. Built in 1935, this beautiful colonial residence offers something increasingly difficult to find in today's market - genuine character, timeless craftsmanship and a lifestyle location that places everything you love within easy reach. Positioned on a fully fenced corner allotment in one of Newtown's most tightly held pockets, this is a home that feels alive with history while remaining perfectly suited to modern living. The heart of the home is centred around the spacious living and dining areas where original features create a sense of warmth and authenticity rarely found in contemporary construction. Stunning Art Deco ceilings, polished hoop pine floors and traditional VJ walls combine to create an atmosphere that feels both elegant and welcoming. The generous timber kitchen provides plenty of storage and preparation space, complemented by a gas oven for those who love to cook and entertain. Three spacious bedrooms offer comfortable accommodation, while the dedicated office provides the flexibility today's buyers increasingly seek for working from home. Step outside and discover a lifestyle that many buyers dream about but rarely secure. Morning walks through Newtown Park and the famous Rose Gardens become part of your daily routine. Bike paths, parkland, schools, shopping and the Toowoomba CBD are all only moments away, allowing you to enjoy an active lifestyle without sacrificing convenience. Picture weekend breakfasts in the sunshine, evening strolls through nearby gardens and spontaneous dinners in the city without the need for lengthy travel. This is inner-city living with warmth, character and soul. For investors, the property offers the added benefit of long-term tenants currently paying $420 per week, with a lease in place until November 2026, providing immediate rental income and peace of mind from day one. For future owner occupiers, it presents a rare opportunity to secure a prized Newtown address now while planning ahead for a future move into a home rich in character and lifestyle appeal. Homes like this are becoming increasingly scarce. They cannot be replicated, their character cannot be manufactured, and their locations continue to grow in demand year after year. If you've been waiting for a home with warmth, personality, convenience and genuine character, this may be the opportunity you've been hoping would come along. A timeless Newtown classic offering lifestyle, character and future potential in one exceptional package.
