Overview

A Century of Character, Reimagined for a New Generation

Sitting pride of place for 100 years, this c.1926 residence begins an extraordinary new chapter following a brand-new transformation. Elevated across two lots on 810sqm, the home enjoys a whisper-quiet setting and a beautifully orientated position capturing tranquil outlooks over the surrounding landscape to distant treetops and mountain ranges. Reinvigorated with new life, the residence presents contemporary Queensland living, where connection and adaptability have been crafted around the changing rhythms of family life. The interplay of old and new unfolds beyond the original frontage, grounded in the warmth of rich timber floors, Travertine and walnut cabinetry. Soft pink hues within the natural stone bring an elegant point of contrast, while stained glass, classic fretwork and 3.2-metre ceilings honour the home's heritage, accentuated by natural light, flow-through breezes, and an integrated sound system that enriches the atmosphere. The front verandah provides a peaceful vantage point for sunset views before welcoming you inside, where the floor plan has been thoughtfully composed to evolve with a family through young children, teenagers, visiting guests and multigenerational living. Upstairs, living extends as one fluid indoor-outdoor experience, opening to an expansive alfresco terrace accommodating BBQs, lunches and evenings watching TV, while overlooking the sunlit swimming pool and providing clear sightlines to children as they swim and play. The statement kitchen balances beauty with exceptional function centred around a waterfall island bench. Three bedrooms also feature on this level alongside the family bathroom, including a private primary suite appointed with a walk-in robe and ensuite. Downstairs creates an entirely new dimension of flexibility. A second living area and kitchen open directly to the undercover patio and expansive front yard, while a private entrance provides independence. Two bedrooms, a third bathroom and practical laundry/mudroom complete this floor, with side access further enhancing everyday functionality. A century after it was first built, this character residence has been transformed for another generation. Promising a relaxed lifestyle, parks, playgrounds, sporting clubs, and Kedron Brook Bikeway are moments from your door, and you can access shops and cafes with ease. Drive 7 minutes to Westfield Chermside, and enjoy proximity to Our Lady of the Angels, Nudgee College, and Virginia train station in a location only 20 minutes from the CBD. Additional property features: - Side access and an electric gate accessing the 3-car garage - Smeg appliances, integrated fridge, Billi tap, Beefeater BBQ - 10m mineral pool, automated dripper system to rear lawns - Home automation, external speakers, 10kW solar inverter - Whole-house water filtration, 3-phase power, ducted A/C
