Grange QLD 4051

Arrive home to an attractive latticed entrance deck on the upper level, which houses the main living areas and a large east-facing covered outdoor entertaining space. The entertaining space is perfectly positioned to maximise morning sun and allow for cool afternoons entertaining friends and family while overlooking the private backyard with nothing but greenspace beyond the rear fence.

The home's history and character have been retained throughout by way of polished timber floors, period detailing, soaring panelled ceilings, VJ walls, and stained glass windows that have been retained from the original property, which dates from the 1930s. The stylishly updated kitchen features Freedom cabinetry, Caesarstone benchtops and quality appliances. A separate dining room opposite is perfect for formal entertaining.

The large covered entertaining area, with built-in heater, overlooks the spacious lawned yard surrounded by established trees. Here, a 1200mm wide gate provides access to the rear easement and can be expanded STCA for earthmoving equipment should a new swimming pool or major landscaping be on the cards.

The large front bedroom has a built-in wardrobe and acoustic glazing to minimise any external noise and the family bathroom features an inset bath, heated towel rail and a beautiful custom NSW Spotted Gum vanity. A Spotted Gum timber staircase leads down a living room plus up to two additional bedrooms and a bathroom. Stylish and functional timber-look tiles provide a cooling surface during hot summers, while new French doors connect the living space, rumpus or teenage retreat to the large paved outdoor patio. A cleverly designed under-stair study space provides a fantastic homework area or home office.

The various renovations to the house over the years have maintained the traditional character throughout, while not compromising on modern living. There is provision for a second laundry within a built-in cupboard at the foot of the staircase, to support completely separate dual living arrangements. Additionally, the extended roof pitch over the entertaining area has been designed to allow sufficient height for additional rooms if desired.

This property includes a covered carport, air conditioning, a connected rainwater tank with functioning pump, and gas connections to the lounge room and kitchen to allow for gas appliances.

Offering a winning combination of location, position, character and further potential to customise, this wonderful Grange home close to all the local appeals is ready and waiting for new owners to lay roots in this coveted inner-city area.
