This Charming Character Home Is Ready For Your Best Summer Ever!
A much loved and well maintained post-war character home, this one is decidedly cute from the front but step inside and discover that it is spacious and family sized with a floorplan that will adapt well over time to a growing family. What's more, with the enormous resort-style pool and, not one but 2, covered decks to the rear, this home is very much about enjoying the quintessential Queensland lifestyle … with holidays so hard to arrange at the moment, this is 100% the place to relax, entertain and enjoy with family and friends this summer!
If you do fancy stepping out though this location offers so much right on the doorstep … 100 metres to Akuna Street parkland, children's playground and bikeway and within walking distance of shops, restaurants and public transport. These are just some of the reasons why so many buyers are keen to get into this part of Chapel Hill with so many prestige homes now being built or renovated to a very high standard quickly turning this quiet but convenient pocket into a highly desirable dress circle.
Move-in ready, family homes like these that have been well maintained and sympathetically modernized to accentuate the home's original charm and character are rare at the best of times and at present are gone within the blink of an eye. So, get in quick to give the family an early Christmas present!
