Positioned on a sprawling 810sqm block and boasting a wide 20m frontage, this captivating Queenslander, circa 1920, is a remarkable demonstration of how contemporary liveability is achieved through the expert marriage of traditional architecture and modern design.
Exquisitely renovated to a high standard with the inclusion of a newly created lower level, where replicas of original features were sourced, the home now stands resplendent as two seamless levels delivering the perfect environment for flexible family living.
Adorned with traditional, polished timber floors, VJ walls and ceilings and French doors, the interiors create a sense of warmth and style only found in homes of yesteryear. Presenting a selection of living spaces to suit family relaxation and entertaining, the upper-level hosts adjoining living and dining rooms and a renovated modern kitchen.
The living room opens onto the cozy front porch. The dining and kitchen flow to the north-facing rear verandah overlooking the expansive, fully fenced backyard. A sparkling inground pool with a large timber deck surrounding a magnificent Poinciana tree takes centre stage, providing a truly special and unique outdoor oasis.
Beautifully appointed to create ease of service to the living and outdoor entertaining spaces, the kitchen is equipped with a 5-burner gas cooktop, 900mm underbench oven, dishwasher and movable island/breakfast bar. Included are a refrigerator, built-in microwave and a TV mounted on the wall.
A family bathroom with a separate semi-frameless shower and bathtub services the three upstairs bedrooms, one with air-conditioning and the others with ceiling fans.
Meanwhile, the vast lower level, flowing onto a covered patio, the lawn and pool, contains an additional living area and study nook. Two bedrooms, including the master with spacious walk-in robe, a stunning bathroom, separate toilet and a copious storage area, complete this level.
A host of features include chic Plantation shutters, split-system air-conditioners, NBN, stained glass windows and picture rails. There is also a double carport with direct access to the garden shed and rear garden.
Located approximately 8km from the CBD and within the Sherwood State School and Corinda State High School catchments, St Aidan's is nearby. At the same time, St Peter's and Brisbane Boys Catholic College are accessible by a short train commute. There is an excellent selection of restaurants and cafes and easy access to bus and train transport and parkland, including the much-acclaimed Sherwood Arboretum.
