The vibrant, inner city suburbs embody the very best qualities of living in Brisbane – Queensland character architecture, fabulous fashion, food and fine antiques. Now is your chance to own your very slice of Paddington’s history – and lifestyle.

Located on an elevated 481m2 north east facing corner block, this lovely gabled Queenslander is the original Cribb family home – one of the only homes in the area to have it’s own horse stables located adjacent to it.

While the days of horses and carts are long gone, you probably won’t need to use your modern version of personal transportation much anyway, as this property is conventiently positioned in the thick of the action.

The property is walking distance from the train station and centrally located among the trendy dining and shopping precincts of Given Terrace, Rosalie Village and Park Road, Milton.

Inside, the home features all the character features you would expect from such an historic residence – elegant pressed metal ceilings, wide honey coloured pine floor boards, VJs, lovely architraving, fan lights, picture and belt rails, and skirting boards.

While the home currently has three good sized bedrooms, a bathroom, smart lack and white kitchen, plus separate dining and lounge rooms, there is potential to raise the home and create a lower level. And with plans already drawn up to raise and develop under, all you need to do is obtain your approvals and start building.

Raising the home will also enhance the view of the city across Suncorp Stadium from the home’s front verandah.

Access to the property is via the rear, allowing for easy entry to the upper level of the home, with a single car port available but plenty of off-street parking next to it.

The home is tenanted until February next year at $450 per week, so there’s plenty of time to refine your plans and find a builder.

Alternatively, with a fresh lick of paint, you can simply move straight in and start living the inner city lifestyle your’ve always dreamt of.
