23 Tongue Street, East Ipswich
CHARMING 1932 CHARACTER HOME IN COVETABLE LOCATION!
This is an incredible opportunity to purchase this fantastic 90-year-old character home, that is waiting for you and your family to live in one of Ipswichs' most covetable locations.
This beautiful period home is positioned in a quiet street with homes of similar calibre and is conveniently located off the main road. Therefore, it is not prone to traffic noise but still boasts the same locale and proximity to prestige public and private schools, the University as well as the Ipswich CBD, shops, electric train and sporting/recreation facilities.
The property has been meticulously maintained by the current owners and is as neat as a pin. The potential for this property is huge! You could 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 the home from a three-bedroom, two bathroom to a four or maybe a five-bedroom home with multiple bathrooms and living spaces and still have room to build a shed/carport for car accommodation, pool or granny flat (all subject to council approvals).
If renovation is not your cup of tea, then there's no need to stress. The current owners have already done all the hard work for you. The home has a new roof, painted internally and externally, stumps have been replaced, plumbing and electricals have been upgraded, floor boards polished, both bathrooms have been renovated as well as the kitchen, fences have been surveyed to the boundary lines and every girls dream, a white picket fence out the front. With all these great renovations that have been done the house has not lost any of its character and charm, it still has its beautiful ceiling roses complimented by the 14ft high ceilings, timber floors, timber archways, coloured glass windows, French doors, stove recess with terrazzo floor, VJ walls and period lights.
The renovated kitchen is sure to blow you away! It features stone benchtops, plenty of cupboard space below and overhead (all soft closing), island bench that doubles as a breakfast bar, stainless steel dish washer, stainless steel freestanding electric oven with gas cooktop (mains gas) located in the old stove recess with overhead mantle, good sized fridge space and pantry.
Just off the kitchen is the air-conditioned lounge and dining rooms which are both of great size and like the rest of the home are full of character and charm.
All three bedrooms are generously sized and open on to the front sleepout/sunroom which has its own study area and a toilet. The bedrooms are also service by the upstairs bathroom which has been tastefully renovated to suit the period of the home. The main bathroom features, white subway tiles with period feature tiles, Victorian mosaic floor tiles, linen cupboard, shower over the bath, single vanity with timber cabinetry as well as overhead timber cabinetry surrounding the mirror.
Heading downstairs you will find that not only do you have a remote controlled tandem double car garage, but you also have a fully concreted and lockable storage space that doubles as a huge entertainment area perfect for gatherings with friends and family. The laundry is also located downstairs with plenty of space for the biggest of washing machines and dryers but you also have the large concrete double tub wash basin. Just outside the downstairs storage/entertainment area is the second bathroom which has been set up like that of a medical grade bathroom. It is an open wet area with a shower toilet and single basin. It is perfectly set up for people with disabilities or the elderly as there is plenty of room for a shower seat and it has a hand-held shower head.
As mentioned earlier the fully fenced and manicured 759sqm block has plenty of room for kids and pets to run and play and never be out of sight knowing that they are safe and secure. There is enough room to build the biggest shed for your prized car boat or caravan, room for a pool or space for a granny flat for older family members or adult children, all subject to council approvals.
This charming 1932-character home is located in ever popular East Ipswich and is a quick walk to East Ipswich Train Station, medical facilities, sporting, Ipswich Girls Grammar School and the East Ipswich State Primary School as well as public transport. This home is suitable for family's wanting a safe, secure and super convenient location to live or a renovator looking to buy and build-in underneath the home, increasing its living area and market value.
Homes of this calibre where you can move in, unpack and enjoy the home without needing to do anything but have the potential and ability to renovate underneath the home and make some serious money rarely come to the market.
Most importantly, there is one more compelling reason to buy this spectacular family home - it has been priced to sell quickly at Offers Over $599,000.
