From Arthur Terrace, the beautiful, traditional detail can be seen in the awnings, railings and stairs leading into the house. Here is also a well-kept front garden with a wide variety of foliage. The landing leads inside to the master bedroom, with high ceilings, smooth panelling and VJs that are characteristic of this home. French windows with awnings on both sides take in lovely breezes and urban views. This room also contains a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite with a shower, toilet and sink.
The second bedroom has a partially-stained glass door and leads to the front deck, with sweeping urban views to Mt. Coot-tha. Plenty of built-in cupboards, storage space and split-system air conditioning can be found in both bedrooms two and three upstairs. A large, tiled bathroom down the hallway contains modern, stainless steel finishes and hardware. A combined shower and bath stands against panelled walls.
Perhaps the most impressive drawcard is the arrival into the kitchen/living area. Polished, stained timber floors and lovely lattice detail are featured throughout in the large, open-plan kitchen with breakfast bar, stainless steel appliances and ample storage space. The inside entertaining area and dining room extension contain both air conditioning and ceiling fans, and leads out to an impressive lofty covered timber deck. The builder has used recycled scrap material including corrugated iron and sliding doors to create a modern finish that complements the style of the home.
Downstairs are a further two large air-conditioned bedrooms (one being a potential study with access to the patio), with more contemporary finishes. Included is a second bathroom with a shower, toilet and large vanity sink. The laundry and extra storage space lead out to a lovely green lawn and patio for private garden entertaining. High hedges shield the area from street view, and a large driveway with a covered carport fits at least two cars off-street. A stepping-stone garden pathway from the front to the back of the house is a charming addition, creating a tranquil environment to enjoy.
The combination of both traditional allure and modern touches in this suburban home are only a stones-throw from Brisbane's CBD. Enquire today to find out more.
