This gorgeous circa 1905 cottage offers the quintessential street appeal of the full front verandah and a white picket fence. Perfectly positioned, the east-facing verandah catches the morning sun and provides just the spot for a sunny breakfast. With two street frontages, there is access for two cars from the rear – a highly desirable asset, yet not often found. Existing concept plans provide a starting point for dreams and discussions around further development of the property to increase living space and number of bedrooms (STCA). Character features include high ceilings, VJ walls, polished timber floors, and a central hall. There are two double bedrooms at the front of the home, with living to the rear. An original fireplace and mantle in the living room is delightful, especially with chilly winter evenings on the way. Just imagine the pleasure of curling up in front of the fire with a warm drink and a good book. Put yourself in the picture. The kitchen is fresh and modern, with glossy white cabinetry and stone bench tops. Plenty of storage space, with a gas hob and stainless steel oven. It's adjacent to the dining room, so whether you're catering just for yourself, or for friends, it is accessible and relaxed. The family bathroom is stylish and spacious. It has a separate bath and large shower, and is light and bright. The home is air-conditioned with a split system, ensuring year-round comfort. The location is simply wonderful. So close to the Kelvin Grove Urban Village, with its emphasis on life and style. You have the fresh food market, the cafes and restaurants, and the La Boite at the Roundhouse Theatre all within easy walking distance. Of course, QUT is also a short stroll away, as is Kelvin Grove State College. Many private schools are a quick bus commute, and you'll be in the CBD in only 10 minutes.
