8 Latrobe Street, East Brisbane QLD 4169

This inner-city home showcases an abundance of traditional Queensland character, from the original timber flooring, VJ walls, high ceilings and gorgeous fireplace, all paying homage to the building's history. While its original character has been enhanced even further with some modern upgrades, there's a fabulous opportunity to further upgrade the house and highlight its character, making this house your home and ensuring the most discerning buyer will be satisfied.

Located just a few minutes from the city on a modest 199m2 low maintenance, flood free, freehold allotment and just a short stroll to transport options including local Buses, CityCat ferry service, Woolloongabba Busway and the soon to open Cross River Rail. There is an abundance of excellent local shopping and casual dining options also within walking distance, all this as a result of being positioned in such a prime inner-city location.

The property features easy access to the Gabba Olympic Precinct and will benefit from new infrastructure, lifestyle and entertainment that will come on the back of the Olympics, not only making this an ideal place to live, but also invest.

The home features an East facing front verandah and central hallway leading past the well-proportioned bedrooms to a living and dining area that boasts a ceiling fan and a classic fireplace as the main feature.

Much thought has gone into the layout of the kitchen that has ample bench space, timber cabinetry, electric stove and easy access to the dining area. There is also a side verandah that is ideal for casual dining and entertaining.

The combined bathroom and laundry features a mirrored vanity, shower, tiled flooring and there is a separate laundry basin. All rooms are well appointed, spacious and light filled during the day due to well positioned windows ensuring light and breezes prevail throughout.

There is no backyard lawn to worry about and there is direct access from the home to the spacious garage that features remote controlled vehicle access. Adjoining the garage is a carport for a second vehicle, which is highly valuable so close to the city.

With the upcoming Olympics this residence will appeal not only to a family, or young professionals, but also investors and renovators. This property must be inspected by all buyers looking for a home or investment in a location that has got everything going for it.
