1 Nielsen Street, Aloomba QLD 4871

This 809 m2 block in a sought after location close to Cairns is a rare find. The low set cottage has served the owners and their families for generations and will make a great renovation project.

School is close by - 200 meters walk to Aloomba State School and very close to the Behana Creek Fresh Water Swimming hole and parklands yet you are only a 7 minute drive to Gordonvale via the cane fields and mountain views and 30 minutes approx. to Cairns.

You feel as if you can reach out and touch Walsh's Pyramid with it's myriad waterfalls in the wet season. It is a quiet area and located on a no through road. The daily breezes are also wonderful.

The home is solidly built with original, 6" cowrie pine timber floors (we think) under floating floors and tongue-in-groove rainforest timber walls and ceilings behind paster board lining. It is a mixture of cement blocks, timber and aluminum cladding. The timber was sourced from the timber mill in the Tablelands 30 odd years ago and the timber stumps have been replaced by concrete.

The home has an enclosed front, tiled entry room which flows to a second room which is lined with bookcases - "the library", and then to the central lounge room and on to the kitchen. There are 2 bedrooms off a second living area with could be opened back up to the main lounge or left as a general kids/games room.

There is a large, main bedroom which was once divided into 2 rooms, and a bathroom with a bath/shower.

There is some air conditioning - 2 x splits and 1 box air conditioner.

A few steps will take you to a small, tiled room which could be an office or 4th room or extra storage.
There is a large laundry with sought after cement tubs, a near new hot water system, a separate workshop and more open area. There is a 2 car in tandem car port plus another set of shed area, some of which is dirt floored with a classic mango tree growing amongst the once chook pen.

The house is wired for a Honda 5.5Kva generator which comes with the house sale.

The yard is fully fenced and has 3 segmented, fenced areas to keep kids and pets happy.

There are pawpaws, lemon, lychees and mangos.

The property is on town water and power and septic.

Be quick to inspect this great opportunity.
