This beautiful character home is a must see! Positioned within walking distance to schools, cafes and Gympie’s retail precinct you will fall in love with this home, the perfect balance of historical charm and contemporary, modern-day conveniences. As soon as you step onto the wide, bull-nosed front veranda there is a welcoming feel with the luscious, urban gardens offering privacy from the street.
Published this year as a ten page feature in Australian Country Magazine, this home was originally built during the Gold Rush as a worker’s cottage in 1890 and has been expertly extended and renovated to respect the unique architectural heritage of its “Queenslander” style. Through the characterful touches of this home, there is an emphasis on quality craftsmanship. The stunning Tasmanian oak kitchen is the entertainer’s dream, opening out to the alfresco veranda via beautiful bi-folding doors and overlooking the tranquil inground pool.
Timeless glossy timber floors, original pendant lights and spacious 12-foot timber-panelled ceilings are featured throughout the home. Boasting 5 bedrooms and two bathrooms, the over-sized ensuite is a striking stand-out and a must to be seen with its stunning antique bath and functional beauty station. With several verandas to entertain, you’ve got ample options to sit, relax and while away your afternoons in the sunshine with friends and family.
Fully fenced, the home has been completely re-stumped and features new roofing. Set amongst the lush gardens, the large shed currently provides both a workshop space and an art studio. With ample interest already, this quality character home won’t last long! Call today to inspect before you miss out!
