Auction Location: On Site21 Fleming Road sits on a spectacular 746sqm allotment in one of Herston's most desirable pockets, a 1911 cottage where old-world character and considered contemporary additions sit comfortably side by side. Gleaming hoop pine timber floors, VJ walls, 3.2 metre ceilings, breezeways and stained-glass windows are immaculately preserved throughout, set amongst picturesque, leafy surroundings that give the home genuine privacy and presence.The northern rear aspect fills the open-plan living and dining space with light, while breezes move easily through to a striking black-and-white kitchen fitted with premium appliances including a gas cooktop, a generous breakfast bar and ample storage. A servery opens straight through to the rear entertainer's deck, creating one continuous indoor-outdoor retreat, while bi-fold doors extend the living area further out beneath a north-facing awning. Two bedrooms, the primary bedroom with a bespoke built-in robe featuring automatic lighting within and a stylish bathroom with a large bathtub complete the current footprint, with air-conditioning and ceiling fans throughout, keeping things comfortable year-round. Downstairs, substantial under-house storage includes the laundry area and the backyard beyond is genuinely expansive, complete with established gardens and a climbing tree and perfect for a winter firepit.
