Elevated to capture cooling summer breezes and beautiful views towards the mountains, this character-filled Albany Creek home combines relaxed family living with space, versatility and exciting potential for the future.
Set on a generous 795m² block, the home immediately makes an impression with its elevated position and distinctive raked timber ceilings. Warm timber tones and floorboards bring character to the interiors, while the home's thoughtful layout provides multiple places for the family to come together or find their own space.
At the heart of the upper level, the open-plan kitchen and meals area sits beneath soaring timber ceilings, creating a wonderful sense of warmth and openness. Nearby, the generous family room continues the home's impressive proportions, while twin balconies provide inviting places to step outside, enjoy the breeze and take in the leafy surrounds and mountain outlook beyond.
Accommodation comprises three bedrooms, including an air-conditioned master bedroom with ceiling fan and private ensuite. Bedrooms two and three each feature built-in robes and ceiling fans, while a separate main bathroom and toilet add everyday practicality for family living.
Internal stairs connect the main living level with an exceptionally useful lower floor. Here, a large rumpus/utility room, workshop and extensive storage provide valuable additional space as they stand today, while also presenting exciting scope for a future renovation or reconfiguration to further enhance the home and add value.
Outside, the substantial backyard is something of a blank canvas. With plenty of room to create a more extensively landscaped outdoor retreat, there is excellent potential to transform the space to suit your lifestyle, including the possibility of adding a pool, subject to the necessary approvals.
Adding further appeal are 26 solar panels and a two-car lock-up garage, including one garage with a remote door opener, and for a home that feels elevated and leafy, the convenience is exceptional. A bus stop is just a stone's throw away, with services providing direct connections to Brisbane City, schools, shops and Westfield Chermside, while nearby parks and walking and cycling tracks make it easy to enjoy the outdoors.
Schools, shopping, dining, medical services, sporting facilities and everyday essentials are all within easy reach, with much of Albany Creek's established amenity accessible on foot. Brisbane's major hospitals, the airport and CBD are also within convenient driving distance, making this an exceptionally well-connected place to call home.
