A house like this is as rare as a blue moon! Architecturally designed by renowned Brisbane architect, Mervyn H Rylance in 1940, this stunning home was built with the latest specs of the era and in the years since has not lost its style or appeal. The house has been immaculately kept; with so many of its original features having been preserved it is like walking back into the 1940′s. You will be overwhelmed by the detail on show throughout the house from the retro wallpaper right through to the ornate cornicing, turreted foyer, polished hardwood red stringy floorboards and light fittings which quite easily could have been selected from a home styling magazine only yesterday.

The built-in sunroom which adjoins the spacious lounge and living room affords you cooling breezes and almost 180 views of the surrounding suburbs, from Eildon Hill around to Ashgrove with Taylor’s range in the background.

The bathroom and kitchen are also both in their original state, the kitchen featuring a 4 burner gas stove, plenty of cupboard space, laundry chute and a milk hatch (a vestige of bygone times). The bathroom has both a porcelain bath and sunken tiled shower recess.

The separate garage with a 2.7 kW solar system accommodates two cars and is adjoined by a covered brick BBQ patio area. Underneath the house there is a second toilet, laundry and extra storage. Located close to transport, shops, cafe’s and restaurants you will be spoilt by the convenience this truly unique property offers. An inspection is an absolute must.
