DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER!
Two things you have to consider with this property: 1. It's position and 2. It's position!. There's work to do here, there's no denying that! Internally, the old girl has been given a bit of a face lift. A new kitchen has been installed, new carpet in the living areas and bedrooms and a RC air-conditioning installed in the lounge room. All in all, it's stood up pretty well to the ravages of time and the bones are solid; as they say, they don't build 'em like that anymore. Built in the 1930's, some of the internal VJ tongue in groove walls of this interwar Queenslander are unpainted and in perfect condition; a testament to the quality of both the timber and the craftsmanship of the era.
The view to the north is spectacular and shared only by a handful of houses along Chelmsford Ave. Advice received from Ipswich City Council's Heritage Advisor indicated that there's an enormous opportunity here to re-position and restore this special piece of Ipswich history. Raised, rotated and moved forward so that the home faces the avenue, this view would be even more spectacular. Add a back deck, sit back, relax and enjoy one of the best views in Ipswich.
