73 Cricket Street

Petrie Terrace QLD 4000

Private and peaceful, 73 Cricket Street (aka 3/77 Cricket Street) has all the external charm of yesteryear but with a modern, functional and tasteful interior. Built as a replica cottage in 1991 as part of the Cricket Street Mews it was aptly named Kingsey Cottage after a small village and civil parish in Aylesbury Vale district in Buckinghamshire, England. Incredibly the home has had just one owner since built and is being offered to the open market for the first time.

Set in the middle rear of the Cricket Street Mews, Kingsey Cottage accentuates a quintessential and picturesque cottage feel. Through the secure front landscaped garden, a few timber steps lead you up directly onto the covered front decked veranda. A pleasant and private place to enjoy a cuppa.

Inside the home there is an air-conditioned open plan living and dining area with polished floorboards, two very good-sized bedrooms, both with built in robes. On this level there is a good-sized kitchen with servery, dishwasher, oven and gas cooking and plenty of cupboard space. The main bathroom is also on this level and comes complete with shower over bath and internal laundry.

From the living area, stairs lead you to a massive master bedroom on the second floor that includes a study nook, built in and walk-in wardrobes, en-suite, sitting area and additional storage spaces. Light and airy you can also enjoy northerly views up to St Brigid's Church in Red Hill and across the Petrie Terrace district from this incredible space.

Kingsey Cottage is also blessed with a north facing descent sized landscaped, private and secure rear garden, with mature plants and concrete hard stand, the backyard is perfect for entertaining and/or for keeping a pet. The front of the home also had a lovely garden, lock up garage and space for second vehicle off-street.

It's a hard find in Petrie Terrace to locate a home that has all the features of a character home yet requires little if no updates. Ready to move in, Kingsey Cottage has been well maintained and includes additional features such as Solar Power (the current owner doesn't pay any electricity) air-conditioning throughout and a new hot water system.
For convenience, the location is almost unbeatable; the home is just a few minutes' walk from Brisbane's CBD, Roma Street parklands, cafes, restaurants, movie theatres, shopping, public transport, connecting arterials and some of Brisbane's best public and private schools. Petrie Terrace is very tightly held and with good reason, with a 4000 postcode on the edge of the CBD and with no high-rise residential buildings, it is the envy of the other CBD bordering suburbs.

The home is scheduled for Auction and will be sold on or before. Interest is expected to be strong, so do not miss your opportunity to inspect now and secure this wonderful home.
