25 Barnard Street, Gladstone NSW 2440

Crossed between Colonial & Federation, with Gabled Roof & Bullnose Iron over the front veranda, supported by timber post with curved bracing. The owners of this prestige home have restored and kept its natural beauty, to reflect the era it was proudly born.The bargeboards are elaborately carved and have stood the test of time to remain with this historical listed home in picturesque Gladstone. Said to be built by George Jeffery, an early Queensland Insurance Company Agent, back in the late 1800’s.Imagine if the walls could talk, this home would have some fine tales to tell, the original family from the 1800’s were music lovers, and still today some 200 years later, a grand piano takes a place of pride & still stand very prominent.The 5 bedrooms continue with the heritage, pressed metal walls & ceilings, a feature in some, continuing to the dining & lounge room area. Timber floors & exposed timber beam a true feature in the kitchen. Continuing Timber floors fill the living areas right through to the bedrooms, from the front door via the massive hall right through to the stunning entertaining deck at the rear of the home. The current owners have incorporated their own touches using Bali like features to give that modern fresh & relaxing feel to the outdoor entertaining area equipped with bar & kitchen. They have also taken that trend inside to the bathroom, with a resort style spa and shower, surrounded by etched glass, again giving you a feeling of been miles away at an exotic hide away.Modern timber kitchen with stainless appliances, and beautifully incorporated breakfast bar, this open space is just another area to be enjoyed by the whole family, spacious open lounge & dining with slow combustion wood heater for those colder winter months.Outside you have a share of 978sqm to add your own touches, not that there is really anything more you could want! With freestanding studio room, which current owners ran a successful business from, you could choose to do the same, or use as a teenagers’ retreat or extra storage.Fully fenced with beautiful manicured gardens and front hedge, think to yourself as you admire….. is it your turn to own this unique piece of history?For more information on this historical beauty, please contact Matt Brennan on 0448637509 or the LJ Hooker office on 02 65626999.
