A rare chance to join the ranks of prestige character homes in one of Brisbane's oldest suburbs. Welcome to the Foreman's House, built in the 1890s. On a commanding corner block, this grand 4-bedroom home is in very good condition.
Built over two levels, the house features twin 3/4 wraparound verandahs that bring light and breezes to the home. The house retains plenty of original features, including gorgeous polished wood floors on both levels. It's bright and airy. The large modern kitchen has excellent built-in storage and a beautiful integrated Falcon range cooker.
With multiple bathrooms on both levels, No. 5 is well-equipped for a busy family. Upstairs, alongside the kitchen and dining areas, two good-sized bedrooms feature French doors that open to the extra-wide verandahs. Take your morning coffee looking over the rooftops and mature trees of the delightful suburb of Wooloowin. The main bathroom on this upper level has a full claw-foot bath and attractive fittings. The main bedroom has an ensuite with separate toilet.
Downstairs, there's a large family room, with a lovely internal staircase to the upper floor. There are two further bedrooms at this level, one of which features a separate study, with direct access to the verandah, making it ideal for working from home.
There's an in-ground pool, and a paved entrance with private parking.
The superb location of the home, in the heart of this long-established, inner north suburb, cannot be overstated. It's an easy, flat walk to Wooloowin train station (755m). You'll be in the CBD in just eleven minutes. No. 5 has multiple, excellent schools nearby. It's in the catchment area for Wooloowin State School and Kedron State High. With quick access to major arterial roads to the coasts, the house is just 8kms from the airport.
The Foreman's House now awaits a new family, a new history. Bring your design ideas to this solid and attractive home.
