42 Mourilyan Road, East Innisfail QLD 4860

This beautiful old period home sits high on the hill in the older part of town, just a short stroll to the riverfront Esplanade and town centre. It has been lovingly restored by its current owners, with a whole new foundation for both the main house and the old shop which has been converted to a very comfortable granny flat.

Featuring all the warm character pieces of a house from the era. Gorgeous high ceilings, polished timber hardwood floors, ornate internal and external fret work, friezes and casement windows. The kitchen has been upgraded with stainless steel appliances and glossy white cabinetry. The addition of air-conditioning throughout makes for year-round comfort. The two main bedrooms are both quite large with full size built-ins in the main and room for them in the second. The third and fourth bedrooms are a little smaller but the fourth would make a great office with its excellent views out to the mountains. The front deck is brand new, fully covered and is a great place to sit of an evening, have a drink, and take stock of the day.

The property used to have a retail store attached which has for the past many years been home to the owner's mum. It has a neat kitchen and lovely sunny dining room. The main living space is very large and has served as a studio bedsitter type arrangement, though a wall would be very easily installed to separate the space and create a bedroom and ensuite. Perfect for Air BNB or even a professional suite.

Sitting on an 809 sqm block which used to have the best views out over the farmlands and to the mountains beyond. The good news is the trees that now block the view are on the property and could be easily trimmed. Underneath the house is a brand-new concrete slab which makes for excellent high and dry storage space.

This home is warm inviting and will make a wonderful family or executive home. Think Country Style Magazine.
