Now available for purchase from a 3rd generation family member for the first time in over 100 years is this solid, much loved and well maintained old girl that sits high on a flood free hill and perched upon the high side of the street with potential dual side access into her large fenced rear yard 971m2 block! I'm hoping I look this good and can stand as straight as her when I'm that age.
This Grand Old Lady has an updated roof with roof insulation tucked in beneath it, a covered front deck where you can look out over the surrounding neighbourhood and watch the world pass by, high ceilings and timber flooring mostly throughout as well as plenty of decorative timber features including some tongue & groove walls and ceilings.
3 very good sized bedrooms are on offer as well as a large lounge area, super spacious kitchen with the old wood stove recess still present, and a supersized dining room. The bathroom and loo definitely does the job and it has a walk in linen/storage cupboard alongside it that I think would be awesome if you wanted to convert to a laundry as the currently laundry is beneath the home and has its water supply fed from the rainwater tank that is also plumbed to an outside tap. The homes layout does have some good size to also possibly accommodate a redesign and add in a walk in robe and ensuite according to my super duper designer eyes from all those hours watching 9 Life on TV!
Beneath the home is a great large open storage area with gravel base and no need to try and water the large shaded mango tree within the rear yard when doing the lawnmowing duties as the outdoor 2nd toilet is still fully operational!
This solid home is definitely a testament to the day when homes were built and not assembled like they are today. This great sized 971m2 piece of Australian Gold is also no doubt where the newer estates would cram 3 assembled homes on...whereas you get to enjoy it all for yourself to potentially build the big shed, dig in the dream pool, add the Granny flat...or add all 3!
For those looking at extra upsides...this potential dual side access and Mixed Density zoned 971m2 block could have other possibilities if you wanted to chat to Ipswich City Council to confirm.
