Beautifully renovated and wrapped in complete privacy behind mature 3 metre hedges, this charming post-war residence blends the timeless craftsmanship of the 1950s with thoughtful, energy-efficient upgrades for modern family living. Warm, inviting and perfectly positioned just 700 metres from Blackwood Street cafés and Mitchelton Train Station, it delivers a sense of calm the moment you step inside. With the owners having secured their next home, this beloved property is now ready for its next chapter and serious buyers should act quickly.
Built in 1955, the home showcases a solid hardwood frame, a weatherboard exterior, polished 130 mm cypress pine floors and polished concrete floors across a functional and generous layout. The large front living and dining room feels peaceful and elevated, overlooking the green canopy of Mitchelton State School Oval and Enoggera Hill through original timber sash windows. Comfort is assured with new Earthwool ceiling insulation and a 7 kW Mitsubishi air conditioner. The main bedroom is impressively sized, offers abundant natural light, includes extensive built-in storage and comfortably suits a king-size bed. It also features a brand new 3.5 kW Mitsubishi air conditioner for year-round comfort. The second bedroom easily accommodates a queen bed, desk and includes a substantial walk-in wardrobe. The impressive third room at the rear spans 5 by 3.7 metres and enjoys a large mirrored wardrobe, making it ideal as a dual home office, teenagers retreat or multipurpose family space. You could even comfortably store a queen-size bed, bedside tables and a full home office setup all at once if required… A second living area on the back level provides the perfect media room for a wall mounted display or children's play space.
The family kitchen sits at the heart of the home and has been recently renovated to suit everyday living and serious cooking alike. The central island bench includes storage on both sides and an LG inverter dishwasher, while wall-mounted and under-bench cupboards provide abundant space for cookware and appliances. Quality benchtops, room for a large family fridge and excellent natural light from the north-west facing windows add to its appeal. From the kitchen, two steps lead you down to the lower split-level of the home, where the polished concrete floors begin and the second living room connects seamlessly through to the utility spaces. A beautiful repurposed 1920s farmhouse door, now operating as a barn door, opens to the fully updated laundry, which continues the same level of practicality and style with heritage-style cabinetry, fresh VJ sheeting, a bamboo benchtop and a deep laundry sink, along with convenient access to
the WC. The entire rear of the home rests on polished concrete floors that showcase exposed river stone and offer a low-maintenance, stylish finish.
Stepping through the sliding glass doors, the polished concrete continues into the expansive covered outdoor entertaining area, spanning 40 sqm of non-slip space perfect for hosting friends and family. Designed for large gatherings, it comfortably accommodates a 10-seat outdoor dining setting, lounge furniture and the family's BBQ and smoker. The backyard provides room for both play and relaxation with 80 sqm of lush lawn, a curved firepit area and a thriving garden. The raised beds and food forest include herbs, tomatoes, chillies, ginger, flowering natives and more, all supported by a 4000 litre slimline water tank, pressure pump and zoned drip-irrigation system with Wi-Fi control. A purpose-built chicken coop and integrated composting system complete this sustainable outdoor haven. Energy efficiency is at the heart of this home, designed by an owner with a passion for smart, sustainable living. The high-capacity 10.14 kW solar system covers more than a quarter of the roof and includes 26 panels, two quality inverters and battery-ready infrastructure for future expansion. A new 250 litre electric hot water system draws exclusively from solar via a timed setting, while a Bosch Series 6 induction cooktop and oven allow the home to operate gas-free. For EV owners, the newly installed Type 2 Tesla fast charger, combined with a mains power upgrade and new meter box, delivers up to 7 kW of convenient overnight charging. Set on a gently sloping 607 square metre block with a wide 20 metre frontage to both Mimosa Street and Andover Street, the home enjoys only two neighbours and pedestrian access to the laneway behind. High fencing and lockable gates ensure excellent privacy and security, ideal for those who travel or simply value peace of mind. Mitchelton continues to cement its reputation as one of Brisbane's most desirable family suburbs, and this address sits at the heart of a warm, friendly community that will immediately make you feel at home.
