Situated just 3 Minutes from Samford Village, is this private 5.5 acre block boasting a restored Queenslander with a touch of history. Originally a Bed and Breakfast on Scarborough over 100 years ago, this old-time splendor home is rich in detail and tradition!
Queenwood was originally built in 1898 and was moved to Samford 14 years ago. Stepping through the original, extra wide entry and foyer, you will find 11 foot ceilings and attention to detail rarely seen in modern times, like wide polished timber floors and ornate light fixtures throughout this high-set home. The open plan living, dining and kitchen areas are classic colonial in style, with double doors leading out to the expansive front deck.
Open all of the original glass French- style doors and windows in summer for the cool Northerly breezes, cuddle up to a book around the fireplace in winter, or enjoy time with friends in the formal lounge. Whatever takes your fancy, this home can accommodate.
The kitchen is spacious, with recycled timber cabinetry, electric cook-top and a step in pantry, with ample space for the budding chef and glass windows overlooking the backyard and dam. Each bedroom has a huge sleep-out, which can be separated for more bedrooms or perfect as a nursery or teenagers retreat. The sleep outs along the front of the house have been opened up to give a 3metre wide front veranda, perfect for the lazy Sunday afternoon relax and unwind looking out to the Camp Mountain Range.
The bathroom has an original claw-foot bath, totally reminiscent of the era!
The property is perfect for horses with separate paddocks and foal yards, ample side access for a gooseneck float and space underneath the house for a tack room. The two dams on the property add extra charm and serenity, with one feeding into the Samford River at the base of the property.
The property also sits next to 2 acres of council land and the numerous number of horse trails winding through the valley and Samford Creek, connecting you to the village, pony club or through the bushland right from your front door!
This home exudes charm and character. With history present behind every door, this amazing residence is now looking for a new family to write a future.
