If you’ve ever dreamed of living in the classic Queenslander but don’t love the idea of renovating, this spectacular home in central Nambour is for you. Elevated from the road, stepping inside 157 Howard Street will take your breath away. All of the hard work has been done for you, this grand old dame has been lovingly restored from the stumps up.

Comprising 3 bedrooms plus study/sleepout – that can be closed off from the main home for a guest or teenager retreat; fabulously renovated bathroom, separate 2nd toilet, extra large laundry/mud room with plenty of space for storage, open plan living/dining with air conditioning and a pot belly stove for those cosy winter nights. The kitchen has been opened up to make it an entertainer’s delight, with plenty of bench & cupboard space. Drive through side access to a large storage shed/workshop at rear (not suitable for cars) with plenty of space to store the boat or van. There is even an above ground pool ready to entertain the kids!

But the piece de resistance that truly set’s this home apart, is the 33m2 undercover timber decking, just perfect for those summer evenings dining outside with friends. Complete with a tiled area for your BBQ plus downlights & fan, you will spend your summers living outside, completely protected from the South-East Queensland elements. Double bi-fold timber doors allow you to fully open your living space & enjoy that feeling of spaciousness. There is also a separate lower 30m2 sundeck to catch the rays during the winter months.

The current owners have poured their heart & soul into restoring this home & adding the modern creature comforts we love, to give you the best of both worlds. The master bedroom has been acoustically insulated, all new wiring throughout the home, air conditioning in the two main bedrooms & main living area, updated .75ml anticon insultation in the roof, restumping of 10 concrete pillars at the rear of the home, a large concrete rainwater tank under the second sun deck space with all downpipes feeding into the tank, the bathroom has been re-plumbed, there is under house storage & your fridge has been plumbed in for you. The owners have also spent hours restoring the original ornate ceilings & cornices. The clever use of recycled timber in the kitchen cabinets is a throw-back to the original home. It truly needs to be seen to be able to appreciate the splendour of everything they have lovingly done to this home.

The weatherboard exterior of the home has been sanded back to bare timber, oil primed, gapped and painted to ensure years of longevity.

Low maintenance gardens with plenty of room for the kids & the pets, and the most glorious north facing leafy outlook from the back deck means plenty of time for family fun or relaxing with your friends over a summer cocktail. This home is everything you dream of in a classic Queenslander and so much more. Within walking distance to the Nambour CBD, plus quick access to all the top schools in the area & just a 15 minute drive to the Maroochydore river, homes of this quality & style do not come up often & in today’s market certainly won’t last.

Richard & Megan from #teamkrausz are honoured to present this beautiful home to the market & we invite you to come & fall in love with 157 Howard Street this weekend.
