Location and Style – Classic Queenslander family home with large covered back verandah, huge salt-water pool in tropical gardens. City views through the trees, very close to Alderley shops, train and bus to the city. With polished timbers throughout, an enclosed front landing deck leads you through double timber doors into a spacious sunroom pouring into a living area boasting wall-to-ceiling VJs, magically strategic skylights beaming in the rays and a gracefully ornate archway into a hallway punctuated by beautiful fretwork. Find the formal dining room on the right or enter the hallway to the bedrooms on the left. Two big bedrooms offer built-ins, the big, tiled bathroom feature his and hers basins and then all gives way to a tiled internal laundry and study/sleep-out. French doors roll out to an immense and private rear deck speckled with bouncing light reflected from the in-ground pool beyond. Overseeing proceedings here is an enormous, charming timber kitchen with dishwasher, dramatic steel rangehood, stained-glass fold-out windows and wide breakfast area offering additional French door access to the deck. Sultry summer evenings sipping Long Islands out here surrounded by your tropical pot-plants, or by the sparkling pool gazing over your rustic back yard (Hills Hoist and all) will be pure paradise for any die-hard Queenslander. Internal stairs curl behind the lounge space, down to a tiled utility area fully appointed to exist as incredible 2nd living space or teenager’s retreat, affording a large separate room area, spacious additional quarters, 2nd laundry and bathroom and its own external entry points. The side carport adjacent provides space for 2-3 cars tandem. The entire property proudly retains a lush, fertile character and seductive sub-tropical ambience. Completely untarnished and cared for tirelessly by devoted owners, secure this beautiful, epic piece of yesterday with enough of today to live happily ever after forever.
