186 Rode Road, Wavell Heights QLD 4012

Positioned high on the hill, this iconic residence is a local landmark. The original home, built around 1946 in the Tudor style, on a large 683m2 block has been renovated and updated to a welcoming, modern family home full of warmth. It is securely fenced creating a private oasis complete with sparkling inground pool and additional studio/guest house.

Entering the house, via the meandering garden path, you will feel at home. The beautiful lounge room is bright and airy with dual aspect windows looking out to the easy-care front garden. An open fireplace for chilly nights is one of many traditional features of this home. There is also a split system air conditioner to keep you comfortable during the summer.

The modern kitchen has an impressive free-standing gas stove and island bench with large drawers and space for family or guests to sit and keep the chef company. The kitchen and dining room flow effortlessly to the covered rear patio, back garden and inground pool.

On the ground floor there is also a home office, with separate entry, perfect for a home business or your work from home days. This could easily convert to a playroom or a casual sitting room. A bedroom and full bathroom are also downstairs, perfect for guests.

The upper level has four bedrooms, two are very large, with room to create a private sitting area. One of the bedrooms has a walk-in robe, and another has access to the front balcony, with fabulous views across the suburbs and towards Moreton Bay. All bedrooms are air conditioned and carpeted for your comfort. The bedrooms are serviced by the stunning family bathroom, with floor to ceiling travertine tiles.

Separate from the house is a spacious, air-conditioned granny flat/studio or guest house which includes a kitchenette and another bathroom. This is the perfect extra space for a teenager's retreat, home gym, or the possibility of renting it out for extra income.

The inground pool is a great place for the family to cool off in our long hot summers. The back garden is fully fenced and easy care.

Perfectly located for the daily commute to the city, with the bus stop literally across the road. A variety of shopping centres are within 5 min drive and many private and state schools are close by.

This is a special home, retaining its bygone elegance with many original period features - beautiful original timber flooring, fireplace, high ceilings and ornate cornices, and has been updated with the modern conveniences we all seek.
