Cheerful and welcoming, this delightful renovated post war home sits atop a family friendly, tree lined street in an outstanding location surrounded by parklands and playgrounds. Lucky residents of Fairfield enjoy convenient access to river walks, bikeways, proximity to shopping centre’s and excellent transport links. Just 4km from the CBD, it is also a short distance from Southbank Parklands and the Eleanor Schonell “Green” Bridge connecting to the Queensland University.
Behind its classic persona, the home’s original character is complimented by modern conveniences and air-conditioned open plan living. A private front porch where you and your guests can linger and relax opens into a central hallway leading through to the rear deck providing cross flow ventilation and cooling in the summer months. A centrally located family bathroom services generous bedrooms and is stylishly appointed with a modern bath, a separate semi frameless shower enclosure and stone sink set into a Caesarstone topped vanity. Natural light and a mirrored robe enhance the master bedroom with a generous sized ensuite. All three bedrooms have ceiling fans and updated window treatments consisting of Roman blinds and plantation shutters.
Polished timber floors and high ceilings throughout reinforce the feeling of generosity in the combined living/dining area that includes an open, well-appointed kitchen inclusive of a range of quality European stainless steel appliances and a Caesarstone breakfast bar. French doors open to the spacious rear deck inviting alfresco dining and get togethers with family and friends.
A timber staircase leads down to a flexible tiled rumpus area easily adapted to guest quarters or teenage retreat. Also located downstairs is a carpeted study, separate toilet, modern shower, laundry and enormous storage facility or workshop.
