Positioned in one of Townsville's most character-filled inner-city suburbs, this beautifully renovated Queenslander offers space, privacy and relaxed tropical living just five minutes from the CBD. Railway Estate is known for its wide streets, classic homes and convenient access to Queensland Country Bank Stadium, Palmer Street dining and The Strand, making it an appealing location for families and professionals alike.
Architecturally reimagined by award-winning Troppo Architects, the home blends heritage charm with practical modern design. Multiple living zones are spread across two levels, complemented by five bedrooms. The open plan kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a generous island bench and breakfast bar, connecting seamlessly to the main living/dining area and outdoor entertaining areas.
Character details including tongue and groove walls, casement windows and vintage 1930s light fittings are thoughtfully retained, while recently upgraded split system air-conditioning (excluding the master), new external paint will keep the property fresh and vibrant for years to come. The property also boasts stunning natural light, ventilation and well-designed storage solutions enhance everyday comfort.
Set on a generous 809sqm allotment, the outdoor spaces are designed for year-round enjoyment. A covered tiled entertaining area overlooks the 8m x 4m inground pool by Kookaburra Pools, complete with a new pump and chlorinator. Established native gardens, fruit trees and raised herb beds create a private tropical setting that regularly attracts Ulysses and Cairns Birdwing butterflies. A professionally constructed nine-hole mini golf course adds a unique recreational feature, while solar power with a new inverter (3kW system) and solar hot water improve energy efficiency. Ample parking (both undercover and off street) accommodates multiple vehicles, a caravan or boat.
