Walk past large, light-filled bedrooms to your left and right, and a formal lounge or dining room, with a crystal chandelier overhead, before entering the relaxed family areas of this well-built c. 1930s' residence.

Positioned towards the rear of the home, these extended living, meals and media spaces capture the winter sun along a north-facing wall and connect via timber bi-fold doors onto an enormous, tiled entertaining terrace. With a high-pitched, pavilion-style roofline showcasing robust timber posts and exposed beams, a frameless glass pool fence and a resort-inspired landscape, this secluded spot is sure to be popular with family and guests.

Mature gardens and high fences assure privacy from neighbouring properties, with the small, grassed backyard providing a level playing area for the kids and pets and requiring little upkeep from you.

Generously appointed with black granite benchtop surfaces and timber-styled cabinetry, a large pantry and high-quality appliances, the functional kitchen is sure to please the avid home cook and entertainer. Inclusions comprise a Neff induction cooktop, a Smeg multi-function wall oven and integrated Smeg microwave, an extended-flue canopy rangehood and a Miele dishwasher.

This Queenslander presents the scope to carry out further, exciting renovations, if desired, and provides a great opportunity for you to reinvigorate, redesign and incorporate your customised selection of upmarket inclusions and finishes into the residence.

Bedrooms are located on each level, with three on the upper, original floor and two on the built-in ground floor. Perfect for families of all ages, younger children will love to remain closer to mum and dad while the teenagers will be keen to escape to their very own games and media retreat downstairs.

Re-purposing the sleepout's extended space that runs along the eastern side of the house, a walk-in-robe and a modern ensuite with a Tasmanian oak vanity have been added to the main bedroom, with a private study adjoining another. A corridor further along the hallway houses the large, family bathroom, with a separate deep bath and shower and a European-style laundry.

Featuring a connecting timber staircase and an internal door that can be locked for privacy, the ground floor is perfect for guest or extended family accommodation, or used for the potential of gaining rental income. There is a separate front entry door opening into the living area, kitchenette facilities, large bedrooms, a bathroom and a single garage with an extended storage area.

This generous 739m2 allotment has a wide street frontage, with the gabled Queenslander set into the Toowong hillside behind a sturdy, secure front fence, intercom-monitored visitor entrance and remote-operated driveway gate. Landscaped to provide appeal and practicality, the exterior is neat and well-designed, with a concrete walkway leading up to the house's front stairs, garage, carport and an expansive off-street parking area for multiple cars.

Ducted and split-system air-conditioning can be found throughout the residence, with 5kWh of rooftop solar reducing energy costs.
