Cherished by the same family for almost three decades, this century-old Queenslander offers a serene inner-city sanctuary in a close-knit neighbourhood. Located in a no through road with leafy parkland outlooks and elegant original details, this home offers enduring warmth and character, ready for its next occupants to enjoy today.
Downstairs is a teenagers retreat, WC and a plethora of storage space for tinkerers or toys. Upstairs Art Deco-inspired horsehair plaster ceilings lend distinction to the light-filled interiors, complemented by polished timber floorboards, decorative picture rails, classic VJ walls and timeless casement windows.
A refined separate formal lounge provides a welcoming setting for guests, while the open-plan family/dining zone flows through statement bi-fold doors to the glorious entertainer's deck. Here, a cosy wood-burning stove, ambient lighting and ceiling fans set the scene for relaxed family gatherings and memorable celebrations.
At the heart of the home, the modern kitchen pairs streamlined cabinetry with granite benchtops and quality appliances, balancing everyday practicality with effortless style. The renovated family bathroom continues the contemporary aesthetic, featuring floor-to-ceiling tiles, a back-to-wall freestanding bath and a sleek frameless shower.
Three generously proportioned bedrooms offer a peaceful retreat for every family member, led by a primary suite with a substantial walk-in robe and a renovated ensuite. A versatile multipurpose studio below adds flexibility for teenagers, overnight guests or separate work from home space, with kitchenette facilities and easy access to the downstairs w/c.
The home's connected setting places Norman Park Station, city-bound buses and Coorparoo Secondary College within walking distance, with nearby ferries offering a scenic alternative for the daily commute. Norman Park State School, Churchie, Lourdes Hill College, St Thomas Catholic Primary School and St Martin's Catholic Primary School are also close by.
Coorparoo Square's shopping, entertainment and cosmopolitan dining are within easy reach, while Seven Hills Bushland Reserve and Wembley Park invite weekends filled with sport, fresh air and picturesque walks.
