Set amongst established gardens on an extraordinary 1,058sqm double block, 135 Tufnell Road is a home with a rare combination of history, character, space, and possibility.
Dating back to the 1930s, this beautiful Queenslander captures the romance of a bygone era, with soaring ceilings, original VJ walls, timber floors, and stained-glass windows creating warmth and personality throughout. Elevated from the street, the home captures cooling breezes, while its generous proportions and thoughtful connection to the outdoors make it exceptionally easy to live in.
Inside, the heart of the home is warm and inviting, with a generous lounge and dining area opening towards the kitchen and outdoor entertaining spaces. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with an ASKO dishwasher, oven and gas cooktop, all approximately two years old and still covered by a 10-year warranty, while air-conditioning in the main living area ensures comfort throughout the seasons.
The accommodation is equally versatile, with three bedrooms plus a dedicated study, including a generous master suite with walk-in robe. Original details sit beautifully alongside the home's practical modern additions, creating a sense that this is a house that has evolved with its family over generations.
But beyond the character of the home, it is the grounds that make this property truly special.
The expansive, fully fenced backyard unfolds into a private world of established gardens, lawn and family-friendly spaces, with vegetable garden beds, a flying fox and children's play areas providing the perfect setting for slow afternoons outdoors. Multiple entertaining zones - including the covered back deck, front porch, downstairs patio, and bar - mean there is always somewhere to gather, whether it is morning coffee, long lunches, or evenings with friends.
Downstairs, the home continues to surprise with substantial workshop and storage space, laundry, an additional toilet, and an abundance of room to spread out. A large shed, double carport and space for a boat add another layer of practicality rarely found in such a central Banyo position. The home has also been thoughtfully equipped for everyday living, with a 6.6kW solar power system with Fronius inverter, additional solar hot water system, a 6,000L water tank and pump, plus irrigation servicing the backyard.
And then there is the opportunity.
With such a substantial parcel of land, there is room to imagine what this property could become in the years ahead. You could simply embrace the home and gardens exactly as they are, raise and renovate the existing Queenslander, create a pool or granny flat, or investigate the potential to reconfigure the lots, all subject to the relevant approvals.
