Beautifully presented in the contemporary tones of crisp white with dark grey detailing, the home welcomes you with an enclosed sunroom framed by plantation shutters and underpinned by polished hardwood floors that feature throughout the home. A central hallway introduces the iconic Queenslander features of 12” ceilings, VJ walls and timber fretwork detailing as you are introduced to a spectacular open plan living and dining space offering superb proportion and scale from the 5m vaulted timber ceilings featuring skylights that drench the space in natural sunlight with a unique loft offering a myriad of exciting possibilities. Complemented by a delightful kitchen with timber cabinetry and separate study/home office, the main living area opens effortlessly to the elevated alfresco verandah that provides the perfect spot for enjoying leafy vista views of the garden at any time of day.
Three comfortable robed bedrooms are zoned to invite the breezes from the north-facing sunroom, with the master offering a well-presented ensuite with oversized shower, while the family bathroom features a gorgeous claw foot bath.

WHAT THE CURRENT OWNERS LOVE… “We love being able to relax in the various spaces of the house and be totally at peace. Whether it be sipping a glass of wine or whiskey in the evening and looking up into the loft and through the skylight at a full moon, or sitting on the back deck and listening to the birds as we start our day, the home provides so many vantage points and spaces that make one’s heart full. We love the history; the fact that the home was built over 100 years ago and still proudly standing today is a testament to the architecture, design and build of that era. Being within walking distance of our favourite local haunts – The Post Office Hotel, Blue Nose Betty Café, the Cardigan Bar and the likes to meet with friends or go out for a drink or a meal is fantastic.”
