111 Hertford Street

Upper Mount Gravatt QLD 4122

Sitting pretty behind a white picket fence on a flat, generous 486sqm block, this fabulous 3-bedroom home has both tastefully modernised, freshly painted spaces, like its gorgeous kitchen, and an array of stunning, meticulously maintained original features.

First, we love a dedicated foyer where you can create a drop-and-collect point for your keys to start and finish your days. This one is perfectly sized to fit a slim hallway table and a stash spot for wet umbrellas and sits behind a screened front door at the top of a short staircase next to the single carport.

Beyond the foyer awaits the home's heart - a light-filled living area that opens through French-style double doors onto a fully covered 32sqm timber-floored deck overlooking the grassy backyard. This brilliant alfresco entertaining space has white-washed, latticed side screens for privacy without loss of airflow, and stairs down to the back lawn.

The lounge is air conditioner-cooled and easily ventilated thanks to an abundance of fly-screened, fluted glass windows that can be opened to capture welcome breezes. The bedrooms feature brand new ceiling fans and also share the lovingly retained original polished timber floorboards which create a wonderful sense of warmth, welcome and connection to the past.

Through the combined kitchen/dining room and the laundry that extends down from it, the timber floors are exchanged for the terracotta hue of easy-clean tiles. This flooring looks brilliant against the dark grey of the beautifully moulded wooden kitchen cabinetry capped by sumptuous, solid timber benchtops.

Servicing the house is an updated main bathroom with a space-saving shower-over-bath combination, a crisp white vanity unit and black & white patterned floor tiling. You get the vibe of yesteryear in here but with a healthy dose of contemporary comfort! A handy extra, especially when you're entertaining, is the powder room off the laundry.

Everything about the existing home is terrific, but with all the space on offer out back, you might consider extending at some point, or the bold might even explore a complete rebuild (STCA). For now, make the most of all the outdoor area where you have the resilient Zozia for kids and pets to play on while you watch from the deck or around a flickering open flame in the gravelled firepit area opposite the garden shed.

Location-wise, it's under 15 minutes to Brisbane CBD, a 7-minute walk to Logan Road to hail city-bound buses and you're well-placed to reach all the essential amenities by car. For shopping, The Village, Mt Gravatt Plaza and Westfield Mt Gravatt can all be reached in about 5 minutes, about the same time it'll take you to hit the Pacific or Gateway Motorways. As for schooling, you're zoned for Wishart State School and MacGregor State High and can take your pick of nearby private colleges in Clairvaux MacKillop, Brisbane Adventist, and Citipointe Christian.

Secure a slice of the south that has all of the potential to evolve as you do!
