Overview
This architect-designed family home, built in the 1980s and presented mostly in its original condition, is situated on a large north-facing 1083 square metre block overlooking parkland. The home offers excellent potential for a tasteful renovation to modernise this classic executive-style residence without the risk of overcapitalising.
Spanning two levels and approximately 316 square metres (excluding garage and alfresco areas), this expansive residence provides super-sized living spaces with versatile options. It features three to four bedrooms, two bathrooms, two powder rooms, a kitchen with an adjacent meals area, formal and casual living areas, an office, wine cellar, multi-purpose room, two laundries, a north-facing terrace at the front, a rear patio, and a three-car garage with additional storage.
Built solidly to high standards with a double cavity brick construction, steel beams, and red cedar wood elements throughout, this home was once a prestige property and still retains a gracious ambience. Fans of retro-style décor will appreciate the interiors, and the home’s good bones make it a joy to restore and modernise.
Notable existing features include raked timber-lined ceilings in upstairs living areas, balcony access from two bedrooms, a fireplace in the formal lounge, skylights and glass panels that invite generous natural light, a brand-new dishwasher in the kitchen, ceiling fans, Daikin air-conditioning, a security alarm, a safe, two 3,000-litre water tanks, and well-established gardens boasting an impressive 31.51-metre street frontage.
The generous quarter-acre block offers ample room to further expand the alfresco entertaining area or to install an inground pool. The grounds are child and pet friendly and designed for low maintenance living, offering a blank canvas to either maintain its effortless lifestyle or to be transformed to suit a personal vision, making a striking impression.
Located in a quiet dress circle street with only neighborhood traffic, the property is within close proximity to quality Kenmore state and high schools, as well as public and independent schools, local dining, shops, and sporting facilities. Easy access to the Western Freeway and Kenmore Plaza, along with bus services connecting to Brisbane Boys College and Ipswich Grammar, enhance the family-friendly appeal of this sought-after location. The Brisbane CBD is approximately 10 kilometres away, accessible via public transport or a short 22-minute drive.
This property is being offered to the market for the first time by its original owners, presenting an exciting opportunity for builders, tradies, renovators, or retro enthusiasts to realise the value and potential of this classic Kenmore home.
