Welcome to "Modbury Cottage"; a fully renovated slice of Brisbane architectural history situated in a highly coveted Wooloowin cul-de-sac just moments to the city.
Couples, young families and those looking to secure their future in this sought-after lifestyle location just 4 km to the CBD, here lies an unmissable opportunity with this gorgeous home proffering so much charm along with a seamless single level layout.
Dated between 1881 and 1893, this "Colonial Hip" style Queenslander retains all the quality and character of its era, while updated to include an easy flowing indoor-outdoor configuration conducive to modern living and entertaining.
Entering via the front verandah with its ornate brackets and distinctive timber braces, the eye is drawn down the whole length of the light-filled house, with its open plan layout leading you to the enticing north-facing rear deck and sprawling green lawn beyond. Polished timber floorboards, high ceilings and timber VJ walls are complemented by a bright, white colour scheme throughout.
Connecting to both the dining and lounge rooms from the heart of the home, an updated, white galley-style kitchen has stainless steel appliances, an induction stove, subway splashback and plenty of storage space. From here, internal French doors lead you to the dining room opening onto the picturesque front verandah, creating a charming backdrop against which to host dinner guests.
The lovely light-filled open plan lounge room at the rear of the home leads through glass French doors to the spacious north-facing timber deck. An idyllic spot for outdoor entertaining and relaxing with the family, this generous covered space seamlessly steps out to a sprawling level lawn with a treehouse for the kids, and flanked by established growth creating privacy and a lovely leafy outlook.
Three carpeted bedrooms run off the long hallway, the rear master featuring direct access to the family bathroom with bathtub and separate powder room. This property also includes an external laundry on the verandah, air conditioning throughout, and driveway parking for up to three cars, with a wide frontage offering provision for a garage or carport if required.
This coveted cul-de-sac street enjoys privacy and quiet while being so close to all the appeals of its inner- northern locale. Just a short stroll to Wooloowin train station and walkable to excellent local schools, this incredible location is just 4 km to the CBD, 3 km to Fortitude Valley, and moments to a plenitude of fine food and retail offerings including the Craft'd Grounds and Fox Street precinct, and Albion Fine Trades shopping hub.
With its gorgeous charm, easy functional layout and coveted location, this much-loved historical home is a real treasure ready and waiting for lucky new owners to add memories of their own.
