A Traditional Queenslander With Style And Charm

The feel of this home is very traditional, charming and inviting. The current owner of this delightful Queenslander, being only the second owner ever, has undertaken a lovely restoration true to the original character. Tastefully decorated in keeping with the style, you feel like you have stepped back in time. The original enclosed verandah at the front of the property is the perfect spot to relax away from the balmy summer heat. Banks of louvres and ornate balustrades complete with heritage "tulip" features allow lovely cool breezes and garden views. The large and spacious open plan living and dining spaces are separated by an impressive original archway and large expanses of casement windows, featuring pretty original coloured glass, allowing the spaces to feel light, bright and summery. Add to this a colour palette that has been selected for its heritage correctness, wide pine polished timber floors and original tongue and groove walls and you will agree that this home has a nostalgic appeal. Offering three bedrooms, the main and second are very large with lofty high ceilings and the main also features a lovely bay window. The third bedroom is situated on the side verandah, is light and bright with ample breezes via banks of louvres and also is positioned adjacent to the main bedroom with easy access via French doors making it ideal for a nursery or child's bedroom. A casual sitting space or sunroom is also positioned on the side verandah and could easily be used as a study space. The bathroom is very traditional, the original tiles have been restored as has a stunning timber linen press which provides ample storage. A traditional art deco style timber reproduction vanity blends perfectly with the fittings in this space.
Entertaining will be a breeze on the large full length rear verandah. The verandah is large enough to be considered an "outside room" with enough space for sitting and dining areas. The heritage style kitchen, once again in keeping with the house's original architecture, has been meticulously restored. Offering the modern convenience of a free standing range set into the original stove recess, but with all other features in the original style. Natural timber bench tops, original timber cabinetry and a lovely restored kitchen dresser all set the scene perfectly.

Situated on a 1055m2 allotment, the current owner has excelled at creating many different spaces within the garden to enjoy, and at the same time created a lush and private feel with many established shrubs and trees, perfect for the kids to run and play or to enjoy the birdlife that frequent the garden. This home really is a masterpiece, a traditional home with style and charm that is for those that appreciate a true and faithful renovation. A must to inspect.
