EXCELLENT OPPORTUNITY ONLY 5KM FROM CBD
With dual street frontage and plenty of backyard, this charming property has all the hallmarks of a family home with excellent connectivity to the CBD, within a few metres to shops, public transport, parks, active travel paths and is situated within the Brisbane South State Secondary College (BSSSC) Catchment. With zoning of LMR2 (Low-Medium Density Residential – 2-3 Storey Mix) a savvy investor may find that there are other options for the 453sqm block (STCA).
From the moment you step inside the front door, there is a certain peace and quiet which is in contrast to the property’s inner-city location. Soft light spills through the many feature timber windows into the entry area, and loungeroom with golden polished floorboards, VJ walls, high ceilings and other sought-after character features. Three large bedrooms are located upstairs and are serviced by a neat and tidy bathroom with shower.
Downstairs you will find an entertainer’s kitchen with marble-tiled backsplash, Stainless Steel appliances and plenty of storage. The huge family bathroom has also been recently renovated and features a modern bathtub, and laundry area with storage. There is a perfect space for your teenager to have space of their own on this level in a comfortable room with built-ins and beautiful timber casement windows looking out onto the garden. With a second living area, there are two options for watching TV, reading, or entertaining for a larger family.
Outside is a beautiful alfresco dining area with Turkish Travertine tile pavers which has been the location of many family parties and special meals in the past. A slightly raised, undercover deck is situated to one side and is perfect for a BBQ and regular evening meals as it has shutters on two sides to either block out the wind, or be opened up to allow the breeze.
