Post-War Family Home on the Hill
High on the hill in Fairfield, this beautifully maintained post-war home has privacy, sweeping leafy vistas, and dual decks for relaxing or for outdoor entertaining, to enjoy the very best of the Brisbane weather all year round. With a fresh coat of paint, and newly polished floorboards throughout, you can move straight in and enjoy everything this home and location has to offer.
The floorplan has been adapted over time to suit a growing family with the original three bedrooms at the back of the property, and an additional over-sized room added in more recent years as a teenager’s retreat. An open plan and functional kitchen has had a revamp to include wooden benchtops and white cabinetry with gas cooktop and loads of storage. There is a neat and tidy bathroom upstairs, as well as a modern bathroom downstairs which has been used for guests and pool parties over the years.
All through the property are the original wooden casement windows, moulded cornices, hardwood floors and chamferboards on the outside, all classic features from the 1960’s when this property was first built.
