8 Thorn Street, Ipswich QLD 4305

Just occasionally a home comes along that combines heritage with modern design. This three bedroom plus a teenager retreat house does exactly that.
Beautifully renovated just two years ago by one of the district's leading heritage builders the owners have added their own touches to make the home inviting and warm.
Featuring the best touches of vintage Queenslander homes the home is built on the site of the first cottage to be built in Ipswich by father of Ipswich George Thorn.
It sits behind the oldest heritage home in Ipswich, Claremont, and its sprawling established gardens.
The result gives this home a feeling of solitude even though it is located in the heart of the city.
Its location lends itself to a stroll to restaurants, cafes, supermarkets and the expanding Ipswich medical precinct.
The home features everything you could wish for including beautiful coloured glass windows and doors, polished wooden floors, an office area, a large front deck and an even bigger entertaining deck at the rear.
It has a modern alarm system, air-conditioning throughout and has solar panels to keep your power bill down to a minimum.
Easy care gardens and small lawn areas mean you won't have to spend your weekends caring for your property.
The home offers two en-suites and a bathroom, automatic gate and has an upstairs laundry.
There is a garden shed and miles of storage space under the home if needed.
The retreat area downstairs has its own private deck, small office nook, en-suite and is perfect for a teenager or parent with its own separate entrance.
This is a rare quality inner city home with character and class that will quickly be snapped up.
