A circa 1920 construction this family home has original ornate features and has recently been raised to create a large multi-level home with multiple living areas creating enough room for the family to grow and flourish. The home has picturesque street appeal with manicured gardens surrounding paved footpaths, pitched roofing, stained glass windows, freshly painted exterior, fascia boards and decorative eaves. A large double carport has been enclosed and a new automatic garage door has been installed along with mezzanine storage.
The classic Queenslander staircase lands on an undercover front veranda and leads to a foyer, upon entering the home into the formal lounge the buyer will note ornate features throughout with restored meranti architraves, skirting boards and picture rail that has been stained to create a beautiful dark finish. The ceiling has decorative plaster and original floor boards are a hidden feature underneath the plush carpet. The formal lounge leads into the formal dining which then flows effortlessly through bi-fold doors to the oversized rear deck with high-pitched roof and beautiful timber fret work creating a masterful feature that is the artistic centre piece of the home. The family can enjoy outdoor living in all seasons with shutters on the western side and a beautiful cross breeze most afternoons. Distant views to Brisbane city can be observed from the rear of the home.
A pass-through with bench is used for casual dining and brings the kitchen to the outdoors. The kitchen has ample storage and has recently been renovated with stone benchtops, glass splash back and Miele oven with induction cook top. The bathroom on the upper level has been renovated with floor to ceiling tiles, matte black finishes, shower screen, vanity and backlit mirror. The master bedroom has a large bay window with seat and storage, built in wardrobes and air-conditioner. A second bedroom is on the upper level and features VJ boards that match the hallway.
Through the light-filled sunroom the internal stairs adjoin to the lower level that was created when the home was raised. The lower level consists of a large living with ample room for an office or study, completely renovated bathroom with bath, shower, heated towel racks, vanity and backlit mirror. The lower level has two bedrooms, the larger of which leads through French doors to the undercover patio/entertaining space that is ideal for a home gym, work shop or storage. An internal laundry with additional toilet provides the perfect space for a potential downstairs kitchenette creating the potential for a self-contained lower level.
In the back yard a paved platform provides more room for an outdoor lifestyle and the 607m block provides a large flat grassed yard with more manicured gardens, tool shed, water tanks, more storage underneath the external stairs and more than enough room for family activities or pets.
This is a home that the buyer can easily fall in love with. It is a quintessential Queenslander and the essence of the lifestyle that Brisbane has to offer. The convenient location finds the home owner only 6.5km to Brisbane CBD, 1km walk to Holland Park West busway, a Woolworths has been proposed for the end of the street on the corner of Logan Road, a short walk to St Joachims primary school and Marshall Road State school only a 3-minute drive away.
