Gracefully standing since circa 1897, this beautifully refurbished colonial commands attention at every turn, now further enhanced with thoughtful updates that elevate both comfort and functionality. Framed by an inviting arbour and secured behind an electric gate, it captures the romance of a bygone era while offering modern living on a 2,024m² block across two titles.
Step inside and the home's heritage shines. Soaring VJ walls and ceilings, mostly original Hoop Pine flooring, and vintage detailing are paired with coloured glass windows and doors that flood the interiors with natural light. At the heart of the home, the renovated kitchen blends timeless style with everyday practicality, featuring a freestanding electric oven with gas cooktop, a charming wood stove for both cooking and winter warmth, extensive storage, and a butler's pantry and laundry. The open plan living and dining area forms a warm central hub, now complemented by air-conditioning for year-round comfort, along with a study nook and ceiling fan, flowing seamlessly out to the expansive outdoor entertaining space.
Offering four bedrooms, the huge master retreat impresses with a private ensuite, bespoke walk-in robe with fitted drawers, and direct external access. Two of the bedrooms include air-conditioning, adding another layer of comfort, while another bedroom, complete with an original cast iron fireplace with timber surround and exquisite detail, offers flexibility as a second lounge or guest retreat. Both bathrooms have been thoughtfully updated with new shower screens, enhancing their presentation while maintaining functionality for family living.
Outdoors, the lifestyle offering continues to impress. The expansive undercover deck includes four shade blinds across the back elevation, creating a more comfortable and private space for year-round entertaining. Complete with insulated ceiling panels, a built-in outdoor kitchen with pizza oven and BBQ, three ceiling fans and stylish plantation shutters, it is a setting designed for relaxed family living and memorable gatherings. Both the front and rear decks are fitted with quality blinds, while children will love the cubby house, established chook and duck pens, and beautifully landscaped gardens that create a lush, private sanctuary.
Adding to the home's practicality is the approx. 9m x 7.3m powered shed with 15-amp outlet, complemented by an approx. 9m x 5.6m carport and full side access for caravans, boats or larger vehicles. A newly completed concrete driveway now provides seamless access all the way to the shed, enhancing both usability and presentation. A rainwater tank is already in place, with plumbing ready for two more, while a separate garden shed ensures everything has its place.
Beyond the home, Goombungee offers the kind of warm, connected lifestyle that is increasingly hard to find. This welcoming township is defined by its relaxed pace, where everyday conveniences such as schools, shops, parks, the local pub and community clubs are all within easy reach. Each spring, the iconic Jacaranda Festival transforms the streets into a breathtaking sea of purple, bringing the whole community together in celebration. Here, neighbours become friends, and the sense of community is something truly special.
Blending timeless heritage character with carefully considered modern updates, this is a home that continues to evolve while staying true to its roots. 26 Mocatta Street invites you to simply move in, relax, and embrace a lifestyle that feels both rich in history and effortlessly liveable.
