Bring the family! You'll marvel at the space and light in this huge two-level home in the prestigious inner-north suburb of Clayfield. Situated on a commanding corner block, this five-bedroom 1930s residence combines the ease and beauty of a traditional Queenslander home with all the conveniences of modern living.
And it's private. Drive through the remote-controlled gates, and into the double garage, with internal access to both levels. Take the stairs up to the open-plan living area, with original polished wooden floors underfoot. Relax. An extra-large lounge and dining area flows to a very generous upper deck, with easily enough room for big al fresco meals or major celebrations. The modern, extra-large kitchen forms the heart of the house here, overlooking both indoor and outdoor areas. There's three good-sized bedrooms at this level. The extremely spacious main bedroom features a dressing room and very generous en suite with twin basins and super-sized shower. There's another large bathroom at this level, which features both full-size bath and separate shower. The house captures wonderful breezes coming in from the east but when Brisbane's summer really cranks up, there's ducted air-conditioning at this level.
You'll be impressed with the scale of the living quarters downstairs. A massive rumpus/media room with built-in bar and integrated kitchenette is ideal for extra guests, older children, or even dual living. This ground-floor level also flows to an attractive wooden deck, surrounded by tropical palms. There's a separate side path to access this area, should you wish to operate an office from this part of the house. There are two additional bedrooms at this level, both airy and bright, and there's a third good bathroom with large shower. The house has excellent storage facilities, including substantial under-stair storage, and additional shelving in the utility/laundry area. Fully-fenced, the home features a low-maintenance tropical garden.
Located in one of Brisbane's premier suburbs, there are excellent shops, cafes and transport links within easy walking distance. It's a flat walk (329m) to fast buses into the CBD, and Clayfield Station (Mon-Fri) is just 711m away. There are multiple, high-quality State and private schools in the area, and the house is in the catchment for Eagle Junction State School and Aviation High.
