11 Andrew Milne Drive, Mount Pleasant QLD 4740

This executive home was built in 1979 (Original plans included)and was one of the first homes to be built on Andrew Milne Drive. The Owner of this much-loved home has recently moved into an apartment in a local retirement village.
The home has been positioned to allow excellent natural light and flow-through ventilation to both upstairs and downstairs. Two-story homes always have great cooling downstairs. There is a Daikin split system air conditioner in the main bedroom but the owner rarely uses it as the home is so well ventilated.

There is no rush to sell the home and the owner is hoping a family will love the home as much as he has in the past. Note! This home has had the same owner for 43 years and in that time, It has been cared for. (Refer to pictures included)

This two-story home was built in the era of solid brick and the brickwork is of the highest standard. There are 3 bedrooms upstairs, 2 with built-in robes and one with a walk-in robe. Downstairs there is a double lock-up garage with Control-a-doors, a laundry, a rumpus room/study/office with an adjoining 2nd toilet & shower. This area also has the scope for a granny flat or 4th bedroom (suite).
In 2000, the owner installed the best feature of this home - a 6 x 9-meter rear balcony with a downstairs garden deck patio. The upstairs balcony is tiled and has great views towards Mt Blackwood, the local golf course, and Rural View. Great care was taken in the selection of the bricks to match the original home. Both decks have 54 square meters of space and have lighting and power points installed.
The owner has just fitted 4 large roller shade blinds to the upper balcony to reduce morning glare and afternoon sun. All balcony rails are powder coated.

In 2020, the home was fitted with a new Rheem Solar hot water heater on the northern roof. In the same year, a 22-panel 6.6kw Solar Edge system was installed along with a StorEdge inverter and a 10 Kw LG battery. You may never pay a power bill again if you are energy-wise. The current owner has had no power bills since the system was installed.

Repairs and Upgrades to the home are as follows:
