Seldom do homes in this quiet yet iconic Townsville Street become available to purchase.
Last sold 1978, and in the same hands since, the high set home, designed perfectly to suit the elevated allotment, occupies an envious position at the end of Queen Street, on the elevated side of the street.
Tapered into the hillside, and designed to take advantage of the island and ocean views, along with prevailing sea breezes, the upper level is the main living area. Featuring two large bedrooms, a separate dressing room, an open plan generously sized dining and living area, a study area and a kitchen with a pantry.
The fact the home is original in nearly every sense, with very little renovation since new, and staying true to original design and character in itself is unique.
Downstairs features an open garage along with a room designated lounge in the original plans which is utilised for more than a storeroom.
As such the age, design and current presentation lend the home to a complete makeover, of what is a fresh canvas.
