This well-maintained character home built Circa early 1920, sits upon an impressive 1272 m2 fully fenced flood free block, located centrally to all local amenities (Riverlink Shopping Centre, Ipswich CBD, local and national brand stores, medical services, State and Private Schools all within an easy few minutes' drive).
From the moment you arrive, the grandeur of space, period charm and mix of modern touches will impress. Entering through the traditional front verandah, the home opens out into a large living area (4.8 x 4.3), featuring high ceilings, VJ walls, picture rails, ornate timber fret work, original solid timber & French doors, timber framed colour stained glass windows, three generous sized bedrooms, sunroom, dining room with stair access to the garage, backyard, and the downstairs area.
The kitchen has been fully refurbished with ample bench and storage space, tiled floor, gas cook top & oven (La Germania) with plumbed-in refrigerator. The bathroom has been renovated to a modern standard with a comfortable two-person shower space and the home benefits from having 2 toilets (upstairs & downstairs).
Under the home is an abundance of extra storage space, a serviceable laundry, the character charm of an old disused brick & copper wash basin (a delightful nod to the character charm of the property). The use of recycled Austral brick chips covering the earthen floor under the home, provides a neat and dustless environment. The home has solar panels, roofing insulation and enjoys ample off-street parking.
Outside is a fully fenced easy to keep yard and garden with plenty of space to install a pool (STCA).
The surprise packet, the multi-use garage / shed. This enclosed two-car space and adjoining two-car carport has been built with multiple purposes in mind. Currently used as a garage on one side and an entertainment space on the other. A unique 1/3rd size Austral brick rail mounted wall finish, gives the garage / shed a more atmospheric feel than what would normally be the impersonal finish of metal and iron. Outside is cladded to match the character look of the house with 240v power and telephone (landline) services.
This property is well presented, well maintained and has been tastefully modernized……it won't last long.
