Privately positioned just 9km from Brisbane’s CBD and blending into the established picturesque gardens under a healthy Poinsettia Tree, rests this once modest 1950s weatherboard home. The substantial 754sqm allotment comes fully fenced and is surrounded by a collection of thriving desirable private residences in a tree-lined pocket and is renowned for attracting young families and business professionals due to its supportive community lifestyle options and conveniences. Understandably so, as an abundance of highly regarded schools, sporting and recreational clubs, parkland, shops, cafs and restaurants, train, and city/university bus transport circle this property. Recently completed renovations have seen this home develop beautifully with popular clean white interiors, overflowing with sleek modern appointments, plantation shutters and built-in cabinetry. As you wander through this single level home you cannot help valuing the ease and enjoyment that a single level home affords, unlike two level homes that have you regularly running up and down. What this home provides that so many others miss out on is an opportunity for family interaction if that is important to you. However, this larger than average floor plan still allows for family members to have their own privacy and space. An open plan kitchen is positioned in the heart of this extensive residence and offers stainless steel appliances and electric ceramic cooktop within extensive cabinetry and stone benchtops including a breakfast bar vital for family conversations when meals are being prepared. In either direction you can choose separate formal living and dining rooms, four bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, laundry, and a considerable family room complete with an Osburn combustion wood fireplace and covered rear deck access. Finishes and appointments throughout include polished hardwood flooring and new carpets in bedrooms, built-in robes with main bedroom featuring a walk-in-robe and ensuite, air-conditioning, ceiling fans, plantation shutters for privacy, designer lighting, security doors and windows and a security intercom entry and front gate. While creating the blueprints for improvements and not wanting to raise the house to add another level; owners have expanded on the existing arrangement by adding a rear extension plus a separate self-contained guest flat currently registered on Airbnb. This extra accommodation is air-conditioned with some cooking facilities and is detached from the home allowing it to be let out separately for additional income, or used for guests, a teenager retreat or elderly parent which is becoming more in demand, or a foreign exchange student. A second laundry is available in the carport to assist. The owners were mindful of the quiet street and their friendly neighbours so privacy was paramount to the convenience and the home needed to be able to appeal to all aged families. The rear deck that is wonderfully large and perfect for entertaining, spills out to courtyard garden areas and lawn and overlooks a fantastic inground salt-water pool which features surrounding timber decking. Large volumes of storage space are available under the home with a purpose-built workshop and a garden shed. The roof cavity has been insulated and the property has a 5,000L water harvesting tank and pump perfect to refill the pool and water the gardens over summer. To assist with the rising electricity cost, this home is equipped with a Goodwe 6.5kw Inverter and 19 solar panels. For those with the love of the outdoors, Sherwood Arboretum and Dunlop Park sporting grounds and swimming complex are very close by, providing numerous opportunities for recreation. If you are interested in schools, then you will appreciate the selection available nearby. Sherwood State School, Corinda State High School, St Aidan's Anglican Girls School, Saint Joseph's Catholic Primary, and Christ the King Primary Schools. Easy walk to city bus and train transport options and the dining and shopping precincts in Sherwood, Graceville, and Corinda. In short – the house is well integrated into its large grounds and the result produces a very liveable family home in a quality street with a friendly ambience to enjoy for many years to come!
