Located just a few hundred meters from Brisbane's CBD, this is an exceedingly rare opportunity to secure an inner-city free hold property that will tick many boxes particularly for a first home buyer, downsizer, or investor in this blue-chip suburb.
Centrally positioned and noticeably quiet, you would be forgiven for forgetting that you are so close to the CBD.
Set on an almost level 228m2 lot, the home is your traditional history filled colonial cottage with plenty of character features, including the quintessential trellis enclosed front veranda that welcomes you into this gorgeous home. Inside there are hoop pine polished timber flooring throughout, timber fret work, original Vertical Joint timber walls and the lofty ceilings that you would expect.
The layout has a wonderful flow that will appeal to the discerning buyer. As you enter the home there are two good sized bedrooms, left and right off the hallway both fitted with ceiling fans and one that has full width built-in wardrobe. Down the hallway, the property opens right up to provide an effortless living space that includes the kitchen, dining, living and a huge undercover outdoor deck that flows out onto a very private rear garden space.
The kitchen is well proportioned and is the central hub of the home overlooking the split system air-conditioned living and dining spaces. An entertainer's delight, this light and airy kitchen offers plenty of cupboard space, gas cooking, dual sinks, and stainless-steel twin drawer dishwasher. At the rear of the home is a neat and tidy bathroom with walk in shower and vanity. The real treat, however, is the living area that extends out onto a fantastic outdoor entertaining area, with a huge full width undercover deck that flows directly onto a private level low maintenance back yard. What a great space to enjoy the privacy and/or entertaining with family and friends.
If considering the future opportunities, there are DA approved plans developed by the renowned architect Tim Stewart available that shows the transformation of this little gem into a masterpiece of significance and luxury.
Additional features include:
• Off street parking for up to two vehicles
• Electric hot water
• Split system air-conditioning in the living and dining area
• Under house storage space and laundry room
