"HIDEAWAY” – CHARMING 1910 CHARACTER HOME IN COVETABLE LOCATION!

This is an incredible opportunity to purchase this fantastic 111-year-old character home, that is waiting for you and your family or some very lucky tenants to live in one of Ipswichs' most prestigious and sought-after streets.

Hideaway is a beautiful period home that is positioned amongst some of Ipswichs' most exclusive and expensive homes yet it is conveniently located off the main road. Therefore, it is not prone to traffic noise but still boasts the same locale and proximity to Ipswich public and private schools, the University as well as the Ipswich CBD, shops, electric train and sporting/recreation facilities. It is such an ideal location for healthcare workers as it is only a short 5-minute walk to either the Ipswich General or St Andrew's Private hospitals.

This is a huge opportunity for not only first home buyers looking to get into the property market but any buyers looking to secure a character home in a prime location. The property has huge potential to renovate and make money on your initial investment, by the way of painting and renovating the kitchen, bathroom and laundry. You could even steal inspiration from the neighbours who have lifted their homes and enclosed underneath to double the homes square meterage. By doing this you could convert this home from a three-bedroom, one bathroom to a four or maybe a five-bedroom home with multiple bathrooms and still have room to build a shed or carport for car accommodation. If renovation is not your cup of tea, the home is perfectly liveable and all you need to do is move in, unpack and start living.

Upon entering the home, you are immediately greeted by the character and charm from a bygone era as it has all the usual hallmarks including; 11.5-foot ceilings (3.5 metres), beautiful VJ walls, period windows, window hoods, doors and glass work, magnificent timber floor boards, breathtaking timber archways and breezeways.

The kitchen is large and like the rest of the home full of charm and offers; beautiful Tasmanian oak timber kitchen, electric oven with gas cooktop, loads of bench space for meal preparation, plenty of storage with cupboards and draws below and overhead, ceiling fan to keep you cool whilst you're cooking up a storm, built-in breakfast bar and double French doors that open out to let in the fresh air, trees and singing of the birds.

The loungeroom is massive in size at 3.5 x 4.7m and with the elevation of the ceiling feels even bigger, it also has a ceiling fan. Just off the lounge is the sunroom which can be utilised as a dining room and is big enough for a six-seated dining table and has frosted glass louvers that let in plenty of cool and fresh air.

All three bedrooms are of great size with the smallest room measuring 3.3 x 3m and the other two rooms are both 3.5 x 3.5m. The master bedroom also has a built-in robe. All three bedrooms are service by the main bathroom which has separate shower, bath, single vanity and a toilet located just outside the bathroom.

The property is tucked away on a generously sized 607sqm battle axe block. Being a battle axe block it offers purchasers another level of security, knowing that all your neighbours are at arm's reach and all are owner occupiers that look out for each other. As an added bonus to the security of home, the property also has a gate at the entry of the house yard which will give you peace of mind knowing that children and pets can play in the safety of your yard. There is enough room for a pool or shed for your prized car, boat or caravan or even just a workshop for whatever your hobby may be.
