Proudly situated on an 876m2 hillside allotment, this double porch gabled Queenslander framed by welcoming greenery and a tall white picket fence invites you to come and feel at home. Blanketed under a canopy of native plantings offering privacy to the homes’ residents, this charming dwelling delivers a serene, relaxed quietness. The house was re-positioned to its current elevated position in 1986 and has been beautifully upheld and maintained to the highest standard for the next family to begin their new chapter with ease. The home is in the central and established suburb of Annerley bordering Tarragindi, amongst other signature character residences.
Stroll into the abode via the front staircase passing the home’s enchanting gardens with tropical plants and towering palms. The private porch entrance is via lattice batwing doors and onto the front veranda that promotes relaxation and calmness. This area consists of polished hardwood floors that extend around the front of the home in an L-shape and provides direct views over the glorious hillside pocket past the canopy of lush greenery. Once entered through the five-panel front door with leadlight fanlight window overhead unveils four large bedrooms stemming off the internal hallway. Noticeably, timeless character detailing immediately impresses with towering 3.2m VJ lined walls, wide hoop pine polished floors and stunning pressed metal ceilings in every room. The main and fourth bedrooms both have large built-in robes whilst the main bedroom has been afforded exclusive access to the front veranda through dreamy French doors. Each bedroom is brightened and cooled with double hung windows that further showcase the thriving foliage seen from within this residence and at every point in the home.
Continue into the air-conditioned living room which is a central point in the home and can accommodate for a larger number of people when entertaining family or friends. Again, the beauty of Queenslander traits shines through with a striking archway that adjoins a large dining room. A home office allows flexibility and the bathroom with separate toilet is tucked away in a corner and provides a shower over bath combo. An open plan kitchen reveals even more character with extensive whitewash kitchen cabinetry and Caesar stone benches, Vincente gas hotplates, Westinghouse wall oven and dishwasher. Perfectly positioned out through French doors and supporting an interplay between inside and outside where the rear deck meets the kitchen. The extensive back deck is the current owners most occupied space, with entertaining made private thanks to the considered layout and plantings. The garden spoils you with a nurtured vegetable patch, unique plants like beehive ginger, native grasses, birds of paradise, orchids and so much more. Here’s the secret, it has all been strategically planted throughout the manicured garden beds which attracts a variety of native birds to watch with wonder. There is also plenty of room here to add a pool or child’s trampoline if sought.
The lower level of the dwelling consists of a large concrete multipurpose area with laundry which is clean, airy, and secure meaning your simple pleasures like extra storage, a home gym or workshop are possible. This home has accommodation for 3 vehicles. In addition to being a strictly residential street often praised for its quiet and serene surrounds, it ensures relaxation is made easy when at home.
