A manicured hedge, blue picket fence and brick-paved path set the tone for this classic weatherboard home on a wide, tree-lined street. Tasteful updates it alongside the original detail - VJ walls, high ceilings, polished timber floors and decorative fretwork - and the whole home is presented with obvious pride of ownership. It suits a first home buyer, a young family wanting the Kelvin Grove State College catchment, a downsizer wanting easy living, or an investor after a character property with lasting appeal.
The front porch opens to a gracious lounge that flows through to the dining room and kitchen. Timber benchtops, blue tile splashbacks, terracotta-look floor tiles and stainless steel appliances give the kitchen plenty of warmth, with a breakfast bar to the dining room, while timber French doors and a servery bar at the kitchen windows connect it to the deck. At almost nine metres wide, the covered north-facing deck is the standout - fitted with blinds and downlights, and made for long dinners, weekend lunches and a relaxed lounge setting under the leafy canopy. The three bedrooms include a master with twin built-in robes either side of a window seat, a second bedroom with walk-in robe, and a third with its own ensuite. Plantation shutters throughout keep every room cool and private.
