With undeniable character and charm this elevated 1940's built home needs a visionary new owner to realise the potential within.

The home is set on a terrific 618m2 block at the high point of this street and this property has all the makings of a beautiful renovation project. From the street your eye will be caught by the instant "Queenslander" street appeal of beautiful timber boards, gabling and sweet exterior fretwork.
- circa 1940's character residence
- 3 good sized bedrooms, 1 bathroom
- study/sunroom off lounge
- comfortable living area with combustion fireplace

Perfectly situated within walking distance to Sandgate village, foreshore and train station, this character Queenslander is on a spacious block with plenty of room to park your toys and for the kids to play.
The home is well set-back from the street and positioned such that you have clear access down the northern side of the block. This timeless timber and iron exterior, with its front entrance stairs and timber enclosed ground floor also provides a secure ground level space for storage and parking.

A low-medium density zoning, coupled with ground floor clearance offers huge potential for raising (subject to council approval) the dwelling and to transform this into a magnificent family homestead.
The front entrance is via one flight of timber stairs that land to an undercover entry deck. Either side of this deck you have cute doors accessing two of the bedrooms; French doors to the main and a teeny timber door to bedroom three.
Inside you have classic raked timber ceilings, VJ walls and ornate glass and fretwork creating a sense of time and place. The main bedroom has access to the front verandah. Bedroom two is also a good size, whilst the third room is ideal for kids or use as an office space. The kitchen is a very large 15m2 space with loads of scope for reconfiguration.

Additional features include;
- a level 618m² block on two lots
- mature frangipani in the front yard and school fields behind
- obvious potential to raise/extend existing residence if desired
- expansive under-house storage area with laundry and car space

Located just a stone's throw from shops, cafes, train station and reputable schools, this location is ultra-convenient. For evening walks along the water, the tranquil foreshore is just a few minutes away.
This gem of a property - unrenovated and character filled on a sizeable flat block - will be in strong demand. Don't miss the opportunity.
