Never fear being lead up the garden path here, for once you overcome the cool surroundings of the shady front yard you are struck by the overwhelming charm of this classic Queenslander in the sleepy hamlet of Murgon.
From the exterior all looks normal – the expansive verandah for summer entertaining or lazing on with a good book. Through the front door is the formal entry and into the lounge. And this is where things take a turn.
Through here is the kitchen which has been extensively renovated but still retains the period charm from the origins of the building. The huge island bench doubles as a breakfast bar. Above is the old pulley wheel, transformed to lighting, complete with hurricane lamps and hanging utensils. Above the windows is additional hanging in the form of a crosscut saw. Modern additions are the “Savior-Faire” commercial gas/electric oven and “Miele” Dishwasher.
The main bathroom has also been recreated, but with modern ‘old’ fittings.
The original 3 bedroom house is resplendent with polished pine floors and has a multitude of storage spaces. The dining room can seat plenty. The former laundry has been converted to a guest bedroom, complete with its own toilet.
Two bedrooms adjoin the lounge, one with built ins whilst the main has a bay window and an adjoining walk-in robe. The office occupies the renovated verandah. 3 aircon units control the temperature in the fully screened house.
Downstairs is the former garage, now a workshop, laundry and gym. The garden shed stores the mower. The backyard of this 1110m2 block is fully fenced.
Rainwater is supplied to the house from 45,000 litres of storage, although reticulated supply is connected. The roof has been rejuvenated and the house completely restumped with adjustable steel. A carport is by the side entry.
This is a property not to be missed.
