RE/MAX Impact proudly presents this one-of-a-kind, double brick masterpiece, offered to the market for the first time. A cherished landmark, this home embodies the timeless elegance and charm of a bygone era, admired by locals for decades.
Crafted with meticulous attention to detail by a master builder, who also contributed to the construction of the local courthouse, this home is a testament to superior craftsmanship and sophisticated design. Despite being situated on a scenic riverfront, this property is flood-free and has solidly withstood every cyclone since it was built in the 1940s, demonstrating its resilience and durability. The original features have been lovingly preserved, while thoughtful updates, such as new iron roof tiles and recreated plaster moldings seamlessly blend the old with the new. Every corner of this home, from the polished hardwood floors to the soaring ceilings and original curved timber cabinetry, exudes refinement and transports you back to a time of unparalleled quality and elegance.
With 3 bedrooms-or 2 bedrooms and an office - the sleeping quarters are both versatile and inviting. The lounge and dining areas are bathed in natural light, thanks to the surrounding casement windows that offer serene river views. Even the updated bathroom and large laundry room, complete with the original copper boiler, pay homage to the home's storied past. Best of all, this home is totally asbestos-free, ensuring peace of mind for future owners.
The expansive grounds provide plenty of space for a large shed or the storage of a boat or caravan, adding even more value and potential to this property. Zoned Residential Choice, this property offers endless possibilities for those looking to add their own chapter to its history. Whether you envision additional residences, a bespoke extension, or even an upscale art gallery or office, this home provides a canvas for your imagination. And with Innisfail known as the Art Deco capital of Australia, as well as being close to renowned tourist attractions like the Atherton Tablelands, Mission Beach, Paronella Park and Flying Fish Point, the location couldn't be more ideal. If you're considering turning this historic treasure into an AirBnB - all furniture seen in the photos is available for sale as a package for an extremely reasonable price, offering an upmarket experience for guests.
Innisfail offers a well-rounded lifestyle with diverse restaurants, cafes and eateries, a local hospital, public and private school. It has the convenience of being just a short drive from Cairns International & Domestic Airport and Cairns CBD.
