Taringa QLD 4068

In 1945 The Rose family bought the house and lived in the original two bedroom home (the existing front four rooms). In the 60 s when the third son arrived they built in the front veranda for a sleep out. Mrs Rose was a dressmaker and she kept the home in pristine condition. The home was subsequently purchased by the current owner and has been transformed via major extensions and refurbishment, always being true to the era. For example, all exterior hanging lightshades are period leadlights the shades on the front verandah were commissioned in the design of a heritage rose motif in memory of Mrs Rose.
Today this beautiful residence represents an enviable blend of style and convenience, with an ideal location. It s a quiet street zoned 'Res A' (no unit blocks) and close to all imaginable amenities. The primary school catchment is Indooroopilly State School just 1km away.
Twin terrazzo driveways line up to his and hers automatic sliding and swing gates servicing carports at either side of the feature mango tree and central garden how very Queensland! The auto lock/unlock front gate is connected via intercom inside to a hallway monitor. Central dual staircase leads to a full width newly painted verandah. Inside the layout is as you d expect with traditional central corridor, large bedrooms with built in cupboards to the right, very spacious open plan lounge and dining to the left. All bedrooms, lounge, dining and kitchen are air conditioned. The whole of the interior flooring is pine floorboards, with the original section having had only one sand and polish. All lighting, switchgear and fans have been carefully chosen to match the era, and original features in the old home were refurbished and retained.
