Positioned in one of Hermit Park’s most coveted streets is this charming Queenslander home. The home has been extensively restored in recent years to reflect times gone by but at the same time affords the modern luxuries one expects today. This home has a warmth and nostalgic appeal that not all older homes have and also has a lovely open and breezy quality as all living spaces flow effortlessly onto the wrap around front and side verandah’s.
The bespoke kitchen was specifically designed to the current owners requirements of a functional and practical space but that would blend perfectly with the original charm of the home. The result is a dark timbered kitchen with granite bench tops and overhead cupboards with art deco style glass inserts blending the old with the new. The smart family bathroom is spacious, light and bright and features a stunning claw foot bath, the perfect spot to unwind after a long day.
The living spaces are large and lofty with original high ceilings, tongue and groove, wide pine polished floors and a rich colour palate used to create a real feeling of warmth and character. The living and dining areas are separate although adjacent and the kitchen is open to the dining area, and once again all these spaces open to verandah’s. The verandah’s are extra wide and are enclosed with balustrade and lattice, perfect to allow the breezes through while still secure, making it ideal for tropical living. The home affords three excellent sized bedrooms; all feature a bank of casement windows and are light and bright.
Situated at the rear of the home is an expansive covered entertaining area which is framed by tall age old trees and lush tropical gardens. The allotment is a very large 1029sqm with plenty of options.
Positioned in a charming quiet location and brimming with appeal, this home is a must inspect and is sure to sell quickly.
