7 Crown Street, Silkstone QLD 4304

This 1920s-built character home has been loved by one family for almost 60 years and we now proudly present it to the market for sale. Most of this sturdy home is very much original and is complemented by the traditional elements you would expect to find in a house of the Art Deco period, including elevated ceilings and timber flooring, and lavish decorative glass features. Outside there is a wonderfully large yard, a garage and carport, side access and fencing on the three interior sides in addition to the distinctive front fence. The original title on the house is dated 1924 and the Bungalow style construction which characterizes much east coast Australian domestic architecture of the 1920s and 30s, is typified in Queensland by hard weatherboard exteriors with jointed pine interior walls and wide pine floorboards. The front porch, which was originally open, is now enclosed though you are led from inside this porch into the home's wide hallway by the original french doors. Characterizing the many casement windows and feature-doors of this home are captivating, patterned glass panels, and a pair of uniquely impressive, heavy silky-oak and patterned-glass sliding doors separate the lounge and dining rooms. The home's many windows and doors enable an easy flow of air and movement between rooms and an abundance of natural light. The design and layout of the home are such that the cooling east-west breezes which grace the home's position, are efficiently utilized. In the large kitchen are free-standing cupboards which, whilst not original, were in place by 1962 when ownership by the current family began. From the kitchen you enter a spacious air-conditioned lounge before moving through the silky-oak dividing doors into the dining room. Other period features of this home are found in the bathroom where the Art Deco terrazzo floor and deep original bath remain. The second bathroom which has a shower, is located at the rear of the home within the built-in laundry. All bedrooms sit at the front of the home. Bedrooms 1 and 2 are larger in size and both have bay windows which provide both seating and storage. The former side veranda has been enclosed and serves as the 3rd bedroom. Set on 2 titles and a large, flat 810m2 block, this mostly original and unmodified house with its many desirable features provides a rare opportunity for the creation of a truly beautiful and welcoming place for a new family to call 'home'. If you are looking for a wonderful family lifestyle with lots of space and easy access to amenities including shops, cafes, medical, state and private primary and high schools, parks and public transport and petrol stations, this is the property for you. Only minutes to Ipswich CBD, Booval Fair shopping centre and a 5 minute walk down the street to Coles Silkstone! Please contact Mike Jones or Kirsty Dutney-Jones for a welcomed inspection.
