Some homes are bought for today. Others are bought with the next generation in mind.
Imagine creating the home your family grows up in - Sunday lunches, Christmas mornings, Birthday parties, children becoming teenagers and eventually returning with families of their own. 53 Peary Street has the location, character and potential to become that kind of home.
Positioned on a prominent corner with Pole Street and surrounded by some of Northgate's finest homes, 53 Peary Street represents an increasingly rare opportunity to secure a classic Queenslander in a tightly held, blue-chip residential setting.
Loved and cared for by the current owners for approximately 45 years, this is a home with history, warmth and wonderful original character - but perhaps most importantly, it offers the foundations for something truly special.
The beautiful traditional façade immediately sets the tone. Inside, polished timber floors, soaring ceilings, ornate plasterwork, decorative detailing and generous rooms speak to an era of craftsmanship that simply cannot be replicated easily today.
The kitchen and other areas of the home are comfortable and functional, however buyers will immediately recognise where the real opportunity lies.
Call your architect. Bring your builder. Start drawing.
This is the type of property that invites a long-term vision - retain the character, raise the home, build underneath, introduce expansive contemporary living and create the substantial family residence you have always wanted.
Rather than compromising on someone else's renovation, here is the chance to take a wonderful Queenslander and create a home specifically for the way your family wants to live.
And importantly, this is a location worthy of the investment.
With premium renovated and newly built residences forming part of the surrounding streetscape, Peary Street has established itself as one of those addresses where families can confidently think beyond the next five or ten years. This is an opportunity to buy, improve and potentially remain for the next 40 years.
The corner position is another significant advantage, providing additional street presence and opening up exciting possibilities when considering future design, access, garaging, landscaping and outdoor living.
For renovators, architects and families who understand the value of securing the right property in the right street, opportunities of this calibre are becoming increasingly difficult to find.
This is not simply a renovation project. It is an opportunity to secure the bones, the character and the position from which to create a landmark family home.
Bring the architect. Bring the ideas. And think long term.
53 Peary Street is ready for its next chapter.
