For more than four decades, this character-filled, solid brick home just off Logan Road, has been lovingly cared for by one owner who is now ready to pass the reigns to lucky new custodians.
Why you’re going to love it:
- Positioned on the high end of the street with great views over Holland Park West
- Loaded with original period features that a considered renovation could shine a light on!
- Two street frontage (Hockings and Pickthorne Streets)
- Established gardens and lawn front and back
- Zoned for Holland Park State and Mount Gravatt State schools
This location is an absolute cracker.
Far enough down the street from Logan Road to avoid traffic noise, it’s still close enough to stroll leisurely to bus stops to get you all over Brisbane. An easy drive from your single garage will have you shopping at either Mt Gravatt Plaza or bustling Garden City in mere minutes, or you can take a short walk from your front door to enjoy nearby Glindemann Park and Playgrounds.
As a renovation project, this home has potential plus. The bones are good, the space generous, the layout functional and those honey-toned timber floors are simply gorgeous! It’s just the interior fixtures and fittings that, if the 80s look doesn’t grab you, can be updated for a more modern look.
As it is, there are character features in spades: breeze blocks at the front entry, timber-lined, raked ceilings with exposed beams and feature brick walls. Retain these elements as they are or tone down the timber with some paint.
The kitchen is ripe for some updating – offering just a basic run of cabinetry and appliances. There’s room here though, and that’s the starting point you need for a re-fit.
The lounge room off the front entry is the wow factor of this property. A bank of full-length windows bathe the space in natural light and the parquetry floors and raked ceilings are stunning. Located at the rear is also a separate family room.
On the accommodation front, there are four bedrooms (three upstairs and one down) serviced by two full bathrooms, one located on each level. Walking out the back, there’s a large expanse of lawn for pets or kids to play and the single garage fronting Pickthorne Street, has drive thru access with the entry door being remote control. Added on at the side also a workshop.
If you like the idea of uniting old with new, this reno-ready property is worth a look.
