Surely this solid old girl will tickle your pickle with its large mostly fenced 974m2 piece of CBD fringe located awesomeness that has the University on one side of it and the Ipswich hospital/medical precinct & bustling CBD on the other side of it!
Located toward the end of this sleepy cul de sac street is where you will find this solid home that was moved to site in the 1950's and thankfully still retains plenty of character features from that era including timber flooring mostly throughout, super high ceilings, plenty of tongue & groove ceilings and walls as well as the old wood stove as a decorative keepsake but also potentially a winter heater!
An updated iron roof is found up top and for all you potential granny flat addition buyers, she easily has potential for dual driveways along either side of this sprawling yard (those are 2 words seldom used today when describing land!)
External front stairs lead onto an L shaped covered deck that does have some drop down blinds for privacy etc however since we have a parkland opposite the home there is no peering eyes from across the road. Once you enter this 2 bedroom home you are instantly surrounded by awesome timber character features from the floor to the walls and ceilings. The supersized air conditioned main bedroom has 2 french doors directly accessing the covered front deck with plenty of space to be like most owners with this era of home that enclose the side portion of the covered deck to add in a spacious ensuite and walk in robe.
Bedroom 2 is also good sized, sits opposite the Main bedroom and also has French doors leading out to the front deck as well as a double door built in robe with overhead storage. A very large air conditioned lounge room adjoins a separate study/sitting room that has a door accessing the covered side deck on one side, and access to the separate loo on the other. Be thankful the loo is within the home as back in the day it was located beneath the home and I'm sure people would have held off the toilet visits for as long as they could. Ewwwwwwwww!
The tidy bathroom definitely does its job and not far from it is the kitchen/dining area that has some modern cabinetry as well as a super wide double door built in pantry and large fridge space. The old wood stove is still found within the kitchen area as a decorative time piece and could also be used as a winter heater once the chimney system is checked out.
External rear stairs lead down from the kitchen area to the concrete floor area and underside of the home that offers a 2 car tandem covered parking, plenty of workshop/storage area as well as the laundry space. Some electrical wiring has been updated, NBN is connected to the property and this solid old girl has plenty of options to grow into, redesign the layout, add in a large shed or potentially a Granny flat, pool...or all of the above subject to ICC approval of course!
Wander across to the large parkland opposite this home to run the dogs or the kids or yourself etc, roll the pushie down the road to the local bmx club track, save motor vehicle costs to put towards your HECS debt by walking to the Uni and escape the stupid parking issues at the hospital by simply walking to work! Schools, medical, takeaway food options and bus stops are also close by and best of all you are front row seat to any of the fireworks displays at the Ipswich Showgrounds!
