75 Mellor Street, Gympie QLD 4570

With a rich history spanning over 140 years, this grand residence has been meticulously maintained and sympathetically renovated, marrying the quintessential character and charm of a bygone era with the must-haves required for modern, family living.

Set on an elevated 1386m2 allotment, highlights include a choice of formal or casual living spaces, an original cast iron fireplace with its stunning marble mantelpiece, private bedroom suites and multi-car parking and workshop areas. Immaculately presented, this stately, Colonial-style Queenslander is ready to welcome its new owners.

From the early 1900s, this imposing residence was operated as a boarding house due to its proximity to the station, with available accommodation advertised and mostly taken up by railway workers. The café next door, SoMa SoMa, was once the site of a general store that was also owned by the same, early titleholders of the boarding house.

Retaining the original features of a tall brick chimney and curved roofline, high tongue 'n' groove ceilings, horizontal interior wall linings, wide verandahs, a sunroom and a versatile sleepout, this Queenslander appeals with its grandeur and authenticity. A viewing platform that once stood high above the rooftop can be seen in old photographs.

With a desirable northeast aspect at the front offering light and warmth, and a relaxing outdoor area overlooking a cottage garden at the rear, the layout suits the climate perfectly.

Rooms are spacious, uniquely configured and styled, with three of the four bedrooms having an ensuite. The master suite, with a large walk-in wardrobe, adjoins one smaller bedroom which could be used as a private study or nursery. Renovated bathrooms feature modern fixtures and fittings, on-trend colours and durable finishes.

There are informal living areas and an enormous, fully renovated kitchen with lots of storage and benchtop space, a freestanding gas top cooker, dishwasher and full-size fridge/freezer recess that are situated in a separate, though connected, structure. The potential for a bed 'n' breakfast venture or guest accommodation is a possibility worth considering, with the modern, fourth bedroom having an independent entry, verandah and ensuite.

The large block has driveway access to a sizeable shed and separate, tandem carport, a turnaround area and large trees that add welcome shade. Situated within a 10-12*-minute walk from Gympie's main business district, this address is only 1-2* minutes in the car to both state and private primary and secondary schools. The Bruce Highway can be accessed in 3-4* minutes.
