Delightful Queenslander cottage on a huge block of land

The home is an authentic Queenslander - timber floors gleam, archways add grace and definition to rooms, original casement windows and louvres provide airflow and tall 11 ft ceilings add to the sense of space. It's surrounded by other quality homes, and is just minutes from the Strand, city and Castle Hill.

The kitchen is the hub of the home - timber cupboards, textured stainless steel benches, gas cooktop and a half-drawer dishwasher, make cooking a joy - and you can still be part of the conversations going on in the small family lounge/study and out on the covered deck. Relax here, enjoying a meal, looking over the garden to the pool beyond. Or enjoy a more formal dining experience in the gracious living/dining room.

The bathroom is traditional with shower over the clawfoot bath, and there's lots of light and airflow coming through louvres on two sides. All three bedrooms are spacious, and the master has a generous walk-in robe which could be converted to an ensuite.

The big quarter acre block is a delight. Tall palms add privacy and shade, and there's a creek running along the side boundary all year round. The pool is superb - train for fitness or just enjoy cooling off in this tropical paradise. This property really has it all - a great address, the charm of a Queenslander combined with the contemporary flow of indoor/outdoor living, and the seclusion of living on a big quarter acre block. It's the North Ward lifestyle at its very best!
