Positioned towards the front of a large 751 square metre allotment, is this 3 built-in bedroom, 1-bathroom retro weatherboard home. Nestled at the end of a short cul-de-sac, with Harristown Park and Harris Street Park only metres away, this location couldn't be more enticing for the young family. It's a gentle walk to Harristown Primary, Harristown High School and Concordia College, and less than a 5-minute drive to the University of Southern Queensland, Clifford Gardens Shopping Centre and Toowoomba's Base Hospital and C.B.D. The floor plan is in keeping with the era, with all the living areas separate. The generous air-conditioned lounge has lovely, polished timber floors and a firebox positioned to radiate heat down the hall and into the bedrooms. All bedrooms have security screens (the main bedroom is air-conditioned) and pivot around the compact bathroom. Needing some thoughtful updates, this modest room includes an enclosed shower over the bath and is adjacent to the separate toilet in the laundry. The central kitchen and dining room is light and bright thanks to a skylight and northeast facing window. Some minor touch-ups have been done but would benefit from a sympathetic renovation. The generous, multi-use living area laps up the morning sun. Well screened, it has a great view of the sizeable and low maintenance, fully fenced back yard, which incorporates an outdoor paved area, rainwater tank and shed. There is also external and internal access to the extensive single lock up garage. Running the full length of the home, there is enough scope to accommodate 2 vehicles in tandem, or have a handy workroom and storage area with power.A little bit of work would go a long way to revitalize this family home. Ideally suited to a first home buyer or investor, 1 Harris Street has the convenience and potential which is highly sort after.
