Josh Micallef from Ray White Aspley is proud to present 9 Folgate Street, Banyo. Held and cherished by the same family for over 34 years, this well-maintained residence offers a rare opportunity to secure a property that has been lovingly cared for and thoughtfully improved throughout its ownership.
Constructed in 1960 and significantly enhanced over the years, the home has been subject to a number of renovations and additions not standard with its original build. Raised in 2002 to create the versatile dual-living layout it offers today, the property is perfectly suited to growing families, multi-generational living arrangements or those seeking additional space in a convenient location.
Situated on a 620sqm allotment and measuring approximately 324sqm under roof, including outdoor entertaining areas, the property provides all the elements of a comfortable and practical family home. Offering multiple living zones, generous outdoor spaces and an abundance of storage, the residence balances functionality with flexibility across both levels.
Welcomed by a large driveway and single carport, the lower level comprises a spacious air-conditioned rumpus room complete with kitchenette, two air-conditioned bedrooms equipped with built-in wardrobes and a large bathroom incorporating laundry facilities. Sliding glass and security screen doors open directly onto the expansive covered entertaining area, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living whilst overlooking the sizeable backyard.
The backyard itself has been designed with practicality in mind, providing ample space for children and pets to enjoy. Double-gated side access leads directly to the 6m x 4m shed complete with covered areas on either side, whilst additional storage space is conveniently positioned behind the shed.
An internal staircase leads to the upper level where a large 5.3m x 4m deck is positioned off the landing and adjoining the main living area, providing the perfect setting to entertain family and friends whilst enjoying cooling breezes throughout the year. Stepping inside, the upper level presents beautifully, with the original front sunroom now utilised as a study area adjoining the living and dining spaces. Timber-look hybrid flooring flows throughout, complemented by plantation shutters and an abundance of natural light from the home's large windows.
The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to cater for everyday family living, offering stainless steel appliances, laminate benchtops, tiled splashback, ample cabinetry and the added convenience of a butler's pantry. Accommodation on this level comprises two generous bedrooms, main with air-conditioning and both complete with built-in wardrobes, serviced by a sizeable main bathroom and separate toilet.
