Overview
This charming traditional character cottage, built in 1925 and situated on a 438 square metre elevated block in the desirable Gabba Hill area, artfully combines classic features with scope for modern enhancements. The single-level layout boasts character-rich elements including five-inch timber floorboards, soaring three-metre ceilings, VJ walls, breezeways, and ornate cornices, creating an inviting ambiance full of heritage appeal.
The generous main bedroom, complete with built-in robe, ceiling fan, and air conditioning, ensures comfort and storage, while the additional two bedrooms provide versatile space suitable for families, guests, or home office setups. The central living area flows into the dining space, offering a natural hub for everyday living with potential for an alfresco extension to the north, capitalising on the elevated position with city skyline views.
The functional kitchen, featuring electric appliances, opens to a north-facing juliette balcony overlooking the fully fenced and child- and pet-friendly backyard. This outdoor area presents excellent potential for extension into an entertaining deck with picturesque city glimpses, ideal for hosting or relaxing.
Practicality is assured with side access granting parking for at least two vehicles, alongside a substantial, unfinished lower level providing storage, laundry, and undercover trailer parking. The residence is perfectly livable in its current state but offers exciting value-add opportunities to suit diverse homeowner aspirations.
Location is a standout, with the vibrant Boggo Road Village a short stroll away, offering supermarkets, cafés, and specialty shops, while key amenities such as Gabba Stadium, hospitals, quality schools, universities, and convenient public transport including the future Cross River Rail are all within easy reach. This well-connected address combines lifestyle, convenience, and future potential in a highly sought-after inner-city precinct.
