Here indeed is a rare offering! A beautifully appointed classic character home where the value of the land alone is arguably worth the asking price. Yes - it's a lifestyle offering combined with a value proposition that can only be described as compelling!
Land banking opportunities like this rarely come with such a large and well appointed executive home. To build this home today would leave little change from $2.0m yet it can be bought now for substantially less.
If character, space, privacy and security on a level oversize block in a location that is peaceful, yet convenient to most things that you'll likely need are important to you, here it is!
This home is a veritable sanctuary with a lot to offer. It is considerably bigger than most homes currently on offer in Ipswich and it offers -
• It's Flood Free!
• 6 to 8 bedrooms with alternate uses e.g. Gym, Study etc.
• 4 bathrooms, 2 with wc's and 2 separate wc's.
• 3 Kitchens over the 2 levels
• a separable self-contained guest suite that can be let out to earn income.
• Multiple living areas - 700m2+ under roof.
• Dual Occupancy capability now.
• On site secure parking for 6+ cars
• large fully fenced 1,481m2 lot secured behind an electric gate.
DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL:
For those with an eye for value and potential, this home can be sold and removed for future development. The land can be subdivided into multiple lots subject to Council approval. The medium density zoning provides for one dwelling per 200m2 of land. The value proposition here is unrepeatable. Aged care or retirement facilities are just two of several other possibilities.
SICK OF LONG SCHOOL DROP OFFS?
This convenient, yet very peaceful, location is an easy walk to electric train, a regular bus route, Childcare, Doctors, Woolworths, Aldi, and all else that matters including Ipswich East State school. Ipswich Girls Grammar is just 1 stop away by train or a short bus ride, as is the Ipswich CBD.
SPACE - PRIVACY - SEPARATION:
As you would expect with the space that a 1,481m2 lot affords, this home enjoys good separation from all neighboring properties. In particular, the position of this home, hiding at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, is deceptively high, offering expansive distant views to the D'Aguilar Ranges from the wide north facing rear veranda which also catches those cooling north easterly summer breezes.
With generous spaces spanning over two genuine stories, [not created via excavation], this commodious home provides multiple options for work, rest and play.
• DUAL LIVING is distinctly possible now. With room for the largest of families, or even two for that matter, it is potentially a true multi-generational home now without need to further renovate.
This home is a must to inspect - A January or extended settlement is available.
If you are in the market for a spacious, high calibre home on a big block and you have an eye for value you will be well advised to consider this one. Make no mistake - one of Ipswich finest!
