This home has been in the same family since it was built in 1936 and this is the first time it has ever been offered for sale. Surrounded by beautifully renovated character homes in one of Camp Hill's most desirable pockets, this gorgeous Queenslander presents an increasingly rare opportunity to secure a character-filled home on a generous 627m² block.
Sitting proudly high in the street, the home is brimming with original charm and offers exciting potential for its next chapter. With excellent side access, a substantial backyard and a view of the city skyline already visible from ground level at the front of the property, there is enormous scope to raise, renovate and capitalise on the elevated position and potential city views.
From the moment you enter, the home's character is unmistakable. A welcoming front entry framed by beautiful leadlight windows opens into a light-filled sitting room with air-conditioning, before French doors reveal the spacious open-plan lounge and dining area.
Here, soaring ceilings combine with ornate plasterwork, rich dark timber detailing, picture rails and beautiful period light fittings to create the warmth and elegance that make traditional Queenslanders so special.
The adjoining kitchen has been updated over the years and provides plenty of cupboard space while retaining character touches including VJ walls.
Two generously proportioned bedrooms are positioned off the central living area, along with a separate study. The air-conditioned master bedroom is particularly impressive, featuring high ceilings, VJ walls and a beautiful bay window, while the second bedroom also enjoys high ceilings, VJ detailing and built-in storage.
French doors from both bedrooms open onto an enclosed sleep out - a wonderfully versatile additional living space with high ceilings and VJ walls. From here, the home flows through to the large bathroom, complete with terrazzo flooring, a generous shower and linen storage.
Underneath the home is space for two vehicles parked tandem, together with the laundry and water tank, while excellent side access opens into the large, fully fenced backyard.
For renovators, families or buyers searching for a genuine character home they can transform over time, the possibilities here are compelling. Raise and build underneath, extend into the backyard, enhance the existing home or simply enjoy its charm as it stands - all while taking advantage of a sought-after Camp Hill address.
The location completes the picture. Camp Hill State Infants and Primary School is within walking distance, with St Thomas' Catholic Primary School, Perth Street Park and the popular Samuel Street shopping and dining precinct all just a short distance away.
