These undeniably captivating, yet practical worker's cottages, built between the mid-19th to early 20th century, have become synonymous with Queensland. Highly sought-after for their single-level, often square floor-plan, opportunities such as 24 Terrace Street are exceptionally rare.
Built to optimise airflow, this property features a wide front verandah, which acts as a lovely al-fresco area for residents to enjoy. Spanning off the central hallway which creates a refreshing cross-breeze, two bedrooms sit side-by-side, with the main bedroom opening onto the verandah through double doors. The bathroom at the rear of the property also houses the laundry.
The open plan living and dining area is opposite the practical kitchen with plenty of storage space. The timber deck has been raised in line with the living quarters to create seamless indoor outdoor living. Astro turf in the backyard makes for a low-maintenance outdoor space, surrounded by custom-built garden beds - the perfect setting to relax or entertain year round!
VJ walls and ornate breezeways throughout perfectly complement the rippled, stained glass windows and timber floors, subtle reminders of the house's history. An enchanting example of Queensland heritage, this home retains its old-world charm offering plenty of potential to put your touch on its delightful interiors.
