This family home has been enjoyed by the current owners for 15 years. They have decided that now is the time to start a new phase in their lives, leaving this beautiful home for another family to enjoy. There has never been a better time for you to make the move to a fabulous tree-lined street in one of Brisbane's favourite suburbs.
This classic home takes full advantage of its' north facing aspect with wide verandas to enjoy the sun in winter and cooling breezes in summer. The house has been raised, built in and extended sympathetically to enhance the elegance of the original dwelling. Many traditional features remain including decorative fretwork, cornices and ceiling roses. The outdoor living space, extensive use of ceiling fans and natural breezes, as well as the sparkling solar powered swimming pool, provide a relaxed lifestyle in a very convenient location.
The sweeping double staircase leads to formal living areas with timber floors and French doors opening onto the wrap-around veranda. A showcase open plan kitchen, with 3m stone benchtop, glass splashback and separate walk in pantry, combines with a spacious dining area to create a magnificent entertaining space. The upper level includes a generous master bedroom, large ensuite with double shower, and fully fitted walk in wardrobe. To the rear of the house, overlooking the back lawn and established garden, two double bedrooms with built-in wardrobes share a stylish bathroom with walk in shower.
Downstairs compromises a contemporary living area with 2.7m high ceilings and a full height built-in bookcase, opening to the stone paved pool area at the side of the property. A generous home office/studio, at the front of the house, has external access and provides an adaptable space for work or leisure. Two further bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes, have access to the informal living area and share a large, contemporary family bathroom. The sizeable laundry has ample storage and opens to the double garage.
This exemplary family entertainer, on a generous 810 m2, is within easy walk of the thriving caf, shopping and cinema precinct on Honour Avenue, as well as bus stops and Graceville train station. It is within the catchment for Graceville State School and is ideally located for Brisbane's leading private schools. Now is the time to make your move.
