Step back in time with this amazing turn-of-the-century Queenslander Cottage. Positioned in a quiet Street in West End, it features ALL the heritage and charm of a bygone era.
Understated from the street, the 'purists' will appreciate just how much this 3-bedroom home is VERY unique and full of unexpected surprises from yesteryear. From the moment you walk through the front door you'll be met with the charming, enclosed veranda with its own private sitting area and French doors. Beyond this, the rest of the home continues to amaze - from the central lounge area with its 3.5m ceilings all the way through to the large heritage kitchen featuring a stainless steel 5-burner gas cooktop / oven, hoop pine cabinetry, granite benchtops, subway tiles and even a super-rare mantlepiece. The kitchen - located in its own wing, is connected to the main house via a unique indoor / outdoor, breezeway-style dining area with distinctive push-out lattice windows. Adjacent to this is the delightfully cute bathroom, which of course is complete with a magnificent claw-foot bathtub.
But what makes this home truly special are all of the striking heritage features, such as hoop pine timber floors, French doors, prestige timber T-I-G walls, sash windows, internal hopper window, louvres, pressed-metal external awnings, fretwork, wainscoting, latticework, ceiling roses ... even right down to Bakelite light switches / power points and period-correct lighting used throughout the home. The list goes on and on.
The 405sqm fully fenced yard is private, shady and the perfect place to entertain family and friends all-year-round. There's even a lockable storeroom connected to the main house for all those loose items such as pushbikes, mowers etc.
But despite all of the amazing irreplaceable features, 29 Estate Street, West End, is still an unsullied and mostly-unrenovated 100+ year old home, so there's also some work to do around the property ... all of which has been factored into the listing price. Still perfectly liveable, there's an amazing opportunity here for someone to take this home to the next level - renovate and reap the rewards.
