Standing stately, high on High Street in Highgate Hill, this fabulous Queenslander is in original condition and ready for its new owners to add their own finishing touches.
Built in 1930 and long held by the one family, the current owner has been in residence for more than 20 years. The house has been a much loved home for many years, but now it is time for new adventures elsewhere.
With dual gables and a large enclosed verandah facing the street at the front, the house sits proudly to the left of the block, boasting a wide frontage on its 483 square metres of land. The large undeveloped yard has enormous potential with easy access for landscaping, and perhaps adding a pool. Two mature palms set the scene for a resort style oasis to be created.
The house has three bedrooms, including two off the central hallway and another off the loungeroom. One of the bedrooms has French doors opening onto the enclosed front verandah, which can be opened up to allow cooling cross breezes from the nearby Brisbane River.
Both the bathroom and kitchen are in original condition, with plenty of space to install modern designer fixtures and finishes. Across the hall, the spacious living room has plenty of room for two lounges plus a dining table and chairs.
At the end of the central hallway, rear stairs lead to the back garden, laundry and toilet underneath. There is off street parking for two cars. Security bars on windows create extra peace of mind, and the home features traditional leadlight windows for additional privacy.
Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, 6 High Street is in a brilliant location, with easy access to University of Queensland via the nearby Green Bridge and all the amenities of South Bank and West End in the other direction. Brisbane City is a 10 minute drive or bus ride away, and the future Brisbane Olympics precinct is just over the next hill. Restaurants and retail are close by, and public transport is convenient on Gladstone Road.
Classic Queenslanders of this calibre are in high demand. You can simply move in and enjoy the home's current amenity, or renovate and extend the home to meet your growing family's future needs.
We invite you to attend our upcoming open homes, and also to email or call with any questions in the meantime. This wonderful home is for sale by negotation with best offers considered.
