Please note that today's open house is still going ahead in spite of the weather.
Location, views and original character features are things that you can never add to a property no matter how well you renovate. And, you guessed it, this spacious 4-bed home proudly boasts all of the above. Discreetly tucked away in a quiet cul de sac yet within a short walk to Kenmore Plaza, shops, restaurants and loads of public transport, this location is highly desired and much sought after. Elevated on the block and set above the neighbours, the living, dining, kitchen and adjoining balcony enjoy expansive views across Kenmore and beyond to Mt Coottha and equally invite cool summer breezes which then circulate a very cleverly designed home that suits the Queensland climate.
The home itself is full of mid-century design features from the original front door to the soaring raked timber ceilings, the generous use of full height glass doors and windows to the richly coloured hardwood timber floors. Recently refreshed throughout, this home has retained all of its mid-century charm whilst upgrading or modernizing where it counts - such as modern kitchen complete with induction cooktop, interior paint, floors repolished, recently tiled bathrooms. This is now ready for your own personal touch … think blank modern canvas with a mid-century twist!
This home is everything you need and nothing you don't and anything it doesn't have can be easily added or modified. There is loads of space and opportunity indoor and out to make this 100% perfect for your family.
And if I can see that, you know there are plenty of others in this market who also will. So you know the drill, prioritize seeing this one or it will be gone before you know it!
INSIDE THE HOUSE
• Clever split-level layout perfect for growing families;
• Recently repolished timber floors to approximately ¾ of the home;
• A living / dining space that you may never want to leave … open plan, exceptionally high raked ceilings, full height glass sliding doors to balcony showcasing the views and providing loads of natural light, statement pendant lights plus split system air conditioning;
• Recently renovated kitchen with stone work surfaces, induction cooktop, Ariston dishwasher and plenty of storage;
• 4 generously proportioned bedrooms all with built in robes, large windows, ceiling fans. Master with split system air conditioning;
• Large downstairs rumpus perfect for a huge range of purposes and leads directly to downstairs patio and back yard;
• Bathrooms designed to ensure you start the day in the right way! (You'll know what I mean when you see it). Loads of natural light and ventilation;
• Large separate laundry;
• A very unique, 4 car, lock up garage. Obviously if you have 4 cars then this is perfect but otherwise, this is an amazing opportunity for all manner of things … workshop, storage, art studio, gym, home office etc.

• Loads of opportunity for the green fingered gardener;
• Fully fenced;
• Pretty paved courtyard between house and garage offering an alternative outdoor entertaining zone;

THE LOCATION

• Kenmore Plaza complete with Woolworths, Aldi and specialty shops plus other services, medical centres and vet are within a 500m radius;
• In fact, why not just get rid of the car … multiple and very regular buses to Indooroopilly Shopping Centre, CBD and UQ are also easily accessed on both Marshall Lane and Moggill Road;
• Just over a kilometre away, catchment primary Kenmore State School is only a 15 minute walk and catchment Kenmore High is 2.6km away;
• An abundance of excellent private schools are within a 10-20 minute drive including BBC, St Peters, Brigidine and Ambrose Treacy College. Private buses are also easily accessible for private schools further afield;
• A location combining lifestyle with so many amenities right on the doorstep really doesn't come much better than this!
Building & pest inspection report available upon request.
First open house this Thursday with 2nd on Saturday. It goes without saying that the interest in this one will be strong but please rest assured that I will not sell this before Saturday at the very least so that all interested parties will have a fair chance to secure this home if it is the one for you.
Please note that this property is currently tenanted until September. The tenants have been very agreeable to allowing open houses but it is unlikely that private inspections can be arranged at alternative times.
