The timeless appeal of a restored classic Queenslander, the convenience of a near city location & sympathetic extensions to the original structure have created a warm & inviting home that has both space & character. It is a design that encompasses 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, formal lounge room, contemporary kitchen & dining room, and a spacious family room that opens to the rear verandah overlooking the backyard.
With verandahs both front & rear, it is a residence that is beautifully designed for our sub-tropical climate with its tradition of relaxed entertaining & family comfort. The many heritage features include original broad timber floors, VJ paneling, high ceilings, original chair rails, traditional coloured glass door & window panels, tripartite sash windows, corrugated iron & slat window sun hoods & broad skirting board mouldings.
A quiet setting in a leafy neighbourhood makes it something of a surprise that this charming home is just 4kms from GPO – a city fringe location that gives access to all the excitement & facilities of the city yet the advantages of a tranquil setting in the suburbs.
As well a being minutes for the city, the location is within easy reach of local shopping, public transport, parkland, professional service, hospitals & the café societies, shopping & entertainment opportunities of Toowong Village, Park Road Milton, Paddington & Rosalie.
THE DETAIL
Facing directly north, this very attractive home presents a delightfully warm & friendly face to the street with its classic Queenslander lines framed by mature graceful palm trees. The charming house front displays the Queenslander characteristics of an entry verandah with slat & rail balustrading, a gable over the front bedroom & tripartite sash windows below a window shade of corrugated iron & timber slats. The paint finishes of cream with white & red trim create a genuine heritage colour scheme.
