This exceptional property presents a rare opportunity to secure a dual-living home situated in a prestigious and convenient Eastside/South Toowoomba location. Combining generous space, versatility, and outstanding lifestyle features, this home is perfectly suited to extended families, guests, or those seeking independent living arrangements within one address. The offering includes a charming character-filled main residence alongside a fully self-contained studio, complemented by a remarkable resort-style swimming pool and an electric heated sauna.

The main residence is a circa 1900 timber worker's cottage, exquisitely blending traditional character with contemporary comforts. The property welcomes you with a full-width front verandah and inside, you'll find VJ walls and high ceilings in the original section of the home, enhanced further by the high, raked ceilings in the recently extended areas. The layout comprises four bedrooms, including a spacious separate fourth bedroom equipped with air-conditioning and the potential to add an ensuite, ideally transforming it into a private master retreat.

At the heart of the home lies a modernized kitchen featuring timber benchtops, electric appliances, and a dishwasher.

The residence also offers two generous living zones, both air-conditioned to provide year-round comfort. A combustion wood heater further enhances the warmth and ambiance of the rear living area. The home effortlessly extends outdoors to a large north-facing covered entertaining area, ideal for hosting throughout all seasons.

The central family bathroom is thoughtfully appointed with a shower over a clawfoot bathtub, a timber vanity, and a toilet. The oversized internal laundry offers practicality with a second toilet and provision for installing an additional shower, should the need arise. Adding to the home’s convenience is an extra-deep double lock-up remote garage featuring internal access, a rare benefit for a residence of this era, with a roller door at the rear for easy backyard access. Adjacent to this, a second covered outdoor area is attached, and security screens enhance privacy and safety. The interior is flooded with natural light thanks to three large skylights located in the kitchen, dining, and bathroom zones, creating an inviting atmosphere throughout the living space.

Completing this unique offering is a fully self-contained studio granny flat, perfect for dual living or rental income potential. This studio boasts an open plan living and bedroom area with ample storage, a kitchen fitted with timber benchtops, electric oven, single sink, and space provision for a plug-in cooktop. A modern bathroom includes a shower, vanity, toilet, and washing machine connections. The front bullnose verandah and security screens add both charm and security to this independent living space.

Outdoor living is an extraordinary feature of this property. The centerpiece is a substantial inground PebbleCrete swimming pool measuring approximately 12 by 4.5 meters with a 72,000 litre capacity, designed for relaxation and entertaining alike. The pool is ionised and hypoallergenic, with depth varying from around 1.3 meters to 1.7 meters, complemented by a separate adjacent electric heated sauna, providing a private home retreat to relax and unwind.

Set on a fully fenced allotment of approximately 911 square meters, the grounds feature established grapevine, palms, cycads, and ponytail palms, offering both privacy and serene leafy surroundings. The location is highly convenient, just minutes from the Toowoomba CBD and major shopping centres.
