Perched high on the hill overlooking Moreton Bay, this historic Queenslander welcomes those seeking the iconic Bayside lifestyle.
Relocated to her present site almost 100 years ago, then raised in the early 80s by the current owners, this gracious old lady has a stately street appeal with original gabled roof line and detailed veranda fretwork. Entering on the upper level, your eyes are drawn to the magnificent 12-foot ceilings atop tongue and groove walls, traditional moldings, original doors, traditional rolled figured glass features and ornamental breezeways. The central hallway opens into a spacious flowing living area, elegant formal dining room and airy kitchen. Three generous bedrooms feature French doors that open onto the wrap-around veranda. The addition of a sunroom with floor to ceiling double-hung windows enhances the home’s natural light and cross-breezes.
Internal stairs lead to a ground-level multipurpose area. Here, the hard work has been done for you with framework for a separate home office/studio or teenager’s/guest retreat, benefiting from a second bathroom and separate entry.
A short stroll brings you to the Esplanade with cafes, boutiques, parks and playgrounds to enjoy.
