Welcome home. This charming 3-bedroom, two-storey brick house is perfect for families looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life. The bi-fold doors open to two expansive jarrah verandahs at the back of the house, offering a lovely and cool retreat in the summer, where you can catch the breezes and watch the birds and trees. The front patio provides a warm and cosy spot in winter, a great place to sit with a cuppa on cool mornings.
Inside, the house features reverse cycle air conditioners in all bedrooms and the lounge, and a wood fireplace in the lounge area for added comfort. The main areas boast polished wood floors, while the bedrooms are carpeted for a cosy feel. The remote-controlled garage door adds convenience.
The generous backyard leads down to Kedron Brook, a lovely creek that forms the bottom border of the property and serves as the boundary between the Moreton Bay and Brisbane council areas. The creek often has eels and water dragons, and you can usually walk across it. The garden is adorned with an approximately 80-year-old Poinciana tree, stunning when in flower, and a similarly aged Jacaranda tree near the creek. Clumping bamboos also add to the serene atmosphere. The total land area is approximately 1558m², offering ample space for outdoor activities and gardening, including a potential vege patch near the creek.
The location offers both tranquility and convenience, with a big park over the creek featuring a skate park and exercise area, and a big dog park just past where the train line crosses the road.
