125 Hope Street

Cooktown QLD 4895

Built with wrap-around verandahs on 4 sides to take advantage of the Cooktown breezes, this 3 bedroom Colonial style residence has fantastic views of the Endeavour River and surrounding mountains from the back of the house and views of Mt. Cook from the front. Set on more than acre (2,428m2) on an elevated corner block only 200m to the main street yet still so private, the extensive cement and stone-work increase the visual appeal of the tropical gardens. Photos do not do justice to this beautiful home and property. Mixed Use Zoning allows potential for numerous options. Upstairs: Very spacious open-plan living area with multiple doorways to the verandas on 2 sides. New modern kitchen with heaps of storage including pantry and overhead cupboards, and a dishwasher cavity. Classic style central hall breezeway from the front verandah past the bedrooms and bathroom to the living area. 3 very large bedrooms, 2 with new modern ensuites, airconditioners and sliding glass doors opening onto the font veranda. Built-in robes in all rooms. Hallway to main bathroom with numerous cupboards on each side. Large main bathroom has been upgraded with modern fixtures and fittings. Good sized laundry with extra space for a hobby room, office or even a small extra bedroom. New light fittings and fans throughout. New access ramp from veranda to garden. Downstairs: Large garage and workshop with 3 lockable roller doors offering plenty of room for vehicle parking and a workshop. The Man Cave, Teenagers Retreat, Play Room - another large room with access from each end that could be refurbished to a bedroom or office, or possibly a media room. Separate toilet and hand basin in another enclosed area outside the above room make it practical to convert to a self-contained unit. Built-in stonework BBQ to relax and take in the views. Level area at the rear of the property perfect for an above ground pool. Tropical gardens with stonemasonry pathways, steps and ponds for the extra aesthetic appeal - a gardeners heaven. Concrete rainwater tank with pressure pump. No neighbours and cannot be built out, and is quiet enough to entice the occasional wallaby and scrub turkey to visit. Unique to Cooktown - your own letterbox. Private and quiet yet only a "stone throw" to town.
