This historic home offers traditional Colonial charm and a rare opportunity to capitalise on its extraordinary location by renovating, extending or redeveloping (STCA) to create a landmark residence for the area.
Positioned on an enormous 1346sqm block with dual street frontage onto two prominent, sought-after streets in high side Sherwood, the home exudes unmistakable character and vintage charm, enjoying quiet seclusion nestled behind a barrier of mature trees.
Consult your architect to take advantage of uniquely spacious rooms, a wide hallway, abundant period details and 3.35m high ceilings that make this original Colonial genuinely distinctive. Classic features include French doors, leadlight/sash windows, timber floors, VJ lined walls and ceilings, picture rails, breezeways and fireplaces upstairs and down.
The layout is traditional with formal, separate living and dining rooms and an adjoining kitchen. The original kitchen boasts a butler's style walk-in pantry. Meanwhile, two sleepouts are easily converted into either ensuites, a study, office or nursery. The functionality of the floorplan allows endless possibilities.
Remarkably versatile, the lower level offers excellent flexibility with a number of multi-purpose areas as well as a laundry, workshop, storeroom and an additional garage. The property also includes three driveway access points, a single lock-up garage, large powered garden outbuilding with substantial storage options. This shelter can double as an additional garage accessed from Prospect Street.
The location is excellent, a mere 8km from the Brisbane CBD. Sherwood train station and village and reputable local schools are within walking distance or accessible via public transport. Children and adults alike will relish the proximity to the Sherwood Arboretum. There are playgrounds, a duck pond and a River jetty providing a fantastic place for kids to have a full day of adventure. Easy access to Graceville's plethora of shops, restaurants and cafes, Indooroopilly Shopping Centre and University of Queensland's Saint Lucia Campus.
