House description
“Circa 1930's Character Home in Prime Cannon Hill Location”
The charm and character of a bygone era meets with the conveniences of modern and vibrant inner city living.
For the first time in nearly 50 years this much-loved family home has been presented to the market. A great opportunity now presents to those with a dream and vision of blending the nostalgia of yesteryear with the modern.
This spacious home offers much of what is typical of its era, but with a few surprises that are sure to please, which include,
- Approx. 3 metre height VJ boards to ceiling and architraves synonymous of the genre's charm and character
- Spacious sunroom that could well become a retreat or additional study
- 3 good sized bedrooms, all with French doors
- Spare room that currently is used as a study but possesses the scope to create an additional bedroom or bathroom, if you so choose
- Recently renovated bathroom at the front of the home
- Pine timber walls and flooring throughout
- Gas cylinder supply for stove and hot water.
There is a rear extension to the home which provides a seamless flow of separate dining area to spacious family living, to back deck overlooking parklands and sports grounds of the highly regarded Cannon Hill Anglican College. There you see views of Brisbane's CBD, highlighting the prime and elevated location within Cannon Hill.
Walk downstairs and find the home has recently been restumped. The option of utilising the free space by digging down and creating additional living area and, in turn, maximising the home's true potential is there for you.
The sizeable, approx. 612m2 allotment provides generous usable space. Currently it holds a spacious workshop that would satisfy the ardent handyman, and not the typical garden shed. There's still scope for further extension to the home or even a swimming pool (STCA). The choices and options are yours!
With open green space of parklands and views, one can understandably feel they are living in the outer regions of Brisbane. But make no mistake, it's also about convenience and proximity living,
- Just step past the back fence to CHAC. Public and private schools and numerous childcare facilities but minutes away
- Central location between soon to be refurbished Cannon Hill Kmart and Morningside Central Plazas, and Homemaker Centre. Westfield Carindale only a 10-minute drive
- 5-minute stroll to Cannon Hill Rail Station
- Minutes to Gateway Motorway servicing North/South coasts and Brisbane Airport
- 15-minute drive to the heart of Brisbane's CBD
- 5-minute drive to the caf, dining and entertainment precincts of Bulimba, Balmoral and Hawthorne.
What would your vision for the home be? So many options that would be sorely missed if not actioned.
