**INSPECTION BY APPOINTMENT ONLY**

Rich in history and beautifully preserved, 59 Queen Street is a distinguished Californian Bungalow that captures the craftsmanship, proportions and character of a bygone era while delivering the comfort and functionality expected of a premium family home today. Built in 1921, the residence has been carefully maintained and enhanced over more than a century, with its original architectural detail remaining an integral part of the home.

Its story begins with the Davis family, well known within Preston and Reservoir's early pharmaceutical and civic community. The home was designed by Mrs Davis with an attention to detail that remains evident today, from its distinctive dual-colour tuckpointed double-brick construction and decorative faade to its period brass light windows, tessellated tiling and carefully considered internal finishes. Albert George Davis would later become a long-serving Preston Councillor and twice Mayor, leaving a lasting connection to the local area.

Beyond its impressive faade, the home opens to interiors filled with warmth and character. High 2.8-metre ceilings, original Baltic pine floors, detailed period features and beautiful natural light create an immediate sense of quality. Multiple living zones provide the flexibility expected of a substantial family home, with an inviting living room complemented by a separate family room, allowing plenty of space to entertain, relax or simply enjoy everyday life. Reverse-cycle heating and cooling provides year-round comfort throughout the home.

At the heart of the home, the kitchen combines traditional style with everyday functionality. Solid granite benchtops and splashbacks, generous cabinetry, Bosch appliances and an expansive island bench flow into the spacious dining area, where French doors create a natural connection to the rear garden and alfresco setting.

Three generous bedrooms provide comfortable family living, including an impressive master bedroom with extensive built-in robes. Two bathrooms service the home, while the combination of period-inspired finishes and tessellated tiling ensures the character of the residence continues throughout.

Outside, the landscaped gardens create a private and established setting, with brick pathways, mature greenery and an alfresco area providing an inviting place to enjoy morning coffee, family gatherings or quiet afternoons in the garden. Rear lane access provides an additional connection to the nearby park, adding another layer of convenience to the outdoor setting.

The substantial garage is another exceptional feature. More than simply secure parking, it has been thoughtfully configured for the car enthusiast, collector or hobbyist, complete with three-phase power and a car hoist, and complemented by an adjoining study or workshop. An extra-wide driveway with custom hardwood remote-controlled gates provides excellent access and secure off-street parking, with capacity for multiple vehicles behind the gates.

Security is also well considered, with two alarm systems and CCTV providing additional peace of mind.

More than simply a beautifully presented residence, 59 Queen Street is a home with provenance. Its enduring double-brick construction, rare period craftsmanship and connection to one of the area's notable early families give it a character that cannot be recreated.

For the buyer seeking something genuinely special, this is an opportunity to become the next custodian of a remarkable Reservoir home, one where history, craftsmanship and family living come together in a truly memorable setting.
