This Queenslander was once magnificent and it can be again if you wish with some love, care and time to make it grand again.
Up the front stairs to the front verandah/porch area. Masses of casement windows that allow the light and breeze through the whole house when opened. Then onto the massive living space 7.3x3.6m. Casement windows on the back wall and french doors on two sides equals more breeze. This room has never been painted so is still natural timber. The high ceilings are amazing with fretwork and ceiling panels reminiscent of this war time Queenslander era.
Along the side of this is a Sleepout which in the old days was used as a bedroom for loads of kids. Now it can do the same or be a funky entertaining area. A study, a nursery or separate space for kids to be kids...
Two good size bedrooms, the master at the front with beautiful old Casement Windows with endless breeze coming through day and night. The second bedroom a good size. Both need new robes.
The kitchen had a reno in the mid 50's and is lime green and with wood panel door design to boot. Was the rage in the 50's or 60's. A good size room ripe for a new kitchen.
The bathroom - not much to say here except it is ripe for a reno and is a good size to do just that. Separate toilet at the rear of the house.
The floors - would be timber underneath and being covered by lino for their whole life, could mean they are in excellent condition. Take up the lino, polished them and I am sure the will be magnificent.
Downstairs is not legal height but has all concrete posts. A workshop is here too. Ideal as a workshop, man or lady cave, craft space or storage. An open laundry complete with cement sinks awaits. The Hot Water system is huge and here as well.
But it is the location that sings the loudest. Across the road from Francis Xavier School, Raintrees Shopping Centre, with new Woolworths. On arterial roads to Airport, Edge Hill, City, South Side or west to Redlynch or Smithfield. Very central location indeed. Only minutes to the City of Cairns CBD.
