Gorgeous from the very first glance, this home makes a stunning impression with its lush tropical gardens, towering palm trees and private fencing that together create a sense of luxury perfectly suited to its premier suburban address.
The home is framed by established tropical landscaping, with soaring palms and gardens wrapping around the property and enhancing the feeling of seclusion. A charming front gazebo offers an ideal setting to string up fairy lights, gather around a fire pit and enjoy relaxed evenings outdoors. Adding to the magic of the block is a rockery waterway that cascades from the rear of the property towards the front, forming a seasonal creek and a beautiful natural feature.
Expansive lawns give children and pets plenty of room to run and play for hours, while the in-ground swimming pool, safely secured with compliant fencing and edged by greenery, provides a cool and inviting retreat on warm days.
On the ground level you’ll find a versatile storage room, practical laundry facilities and an additional bathroom showcasing its original retro blue bath and vanity – a quirky, character-filled nod to the home’s past.
Upstairs, a treetop balcony captures leafy outlooks across the gardens below. Inside, the generous living room features original timber flooring underfoot, adding warmth and authenticity to the interiors. The functional kitchen offers overhead cabinetry and plentiful cupboard space to keep everything neatly organised.
There are three bedrooms, each enjoying tranquil treetop views from their windows. Originally rebuilt post-cyclone, this home is rich in character and charm, presenting a fantastic opportunity for home makers eager to renovate, refresh or reimagine a classic property in a blue-chip location.
Positioned just minutes from the water and under ten minutes from the CBD, this is all about lifestyle and location – a private, leafy retreat with exceptional potential close to everything.
