THE OLD SCHOOL – Award-winning Raise and Restoration

Built in the 1880’s – the original three classroom school was brought into Ipswich in two pieces on drays for the Pender family.  The property was L-shaped. Later in 1933 Mrs. Brewer transformed the property into a gentlemen’s residence by extending into a rectangular shape to provide an income for her family.

The current owners purchased the property in 1988 and in 2009 raised and restored the property with full council approval to provide 8 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms – including a disability bathroom on the lower level, and 3 living areas, connected by internal stairs.

Enjoy breezes and picturesque views across the oval to St Mary’s Cathedral and school from the front verandah and through french doors opening to the verandah.

The original charm and quintessential features of this historic home have been preserved, including vaulted ceilings, whilst empathetically providing modern convenience for maximum enjoyment of the property.

Formal lounge and dining are located on this level served by an amazing timber kitchen with stainless steel bench tops and stainless steel double sink with drainers on both sides. Main bathroom is located on this level.

The master bedroom is complete with 2 robes and ensuite connecting door to second bedroom or could be a huge walk-in robe – dressing room or nursery. There is a study area off this room. The third bedroom also opens to the front verandah.

Enjoy quaint views across the city capturing the old facades of buildings from the 1800’s.

Five of the eight bedrooms are located on the lower level, two of these bedrooms off the hall making practical home offices, both with access to the front through french doors.

Bi-fold doors separate the living areas downstairs providing private space for two bedrooms, bathroom, living area with sink facilities.  This opens to the undercover area for car accommodation or extra entertainment space.

View Profile

June is a hard working agent and independently sold our home. June was there for all the open times each Saturday and Sunday. There were no substitute agents. The first weekend with her agency, we had a genuine buyer, which she followed up on and resulted in the sale of our home. Such a relief for us, as our home had been listed with another agent since January 2017. Due to her negotiation skills and knowledge of the colonial house market, our lovely character home was sold and we could happily move on. We would recommend highly Walkers’ Principal, June Frank, as an agent who knows the Ipswich property market extremely well.

I cannot recommend June Frank more highly. She is professional, friendly, and efficient. She and her wonderful team offer guidance and support throughout the entire process. Buying or selling... It is easy to see why June Frank is Ipswich's top agent! Thanks June!  

Purchased my first home from June in 1999 and have recently purchased what I expect to be my last, also from June. Contract negotiated and signed within two hours. Diligence, professionalism and attention to detail throughout the process. June's reputation speaks for itself but her actions are far more. She is tenacious in ensuring her clients are looked after throughout the process and her follow-up is second to none. Not only is June an absolute professional who values long term relationships, she is truly committed, and has been for many years, to ensuring Ipswich home buyers receive first class service.  

June is a very trustworthy Agent. She demonstrates this with her excellent communication skills and professional conduct. Although she works for the seller, she still makes the whole process of purchasing a property easy and comfortable.

June was pleasant and easy to work with, always willing to discuss any issues or questions we might have. June was willing to work to with us to gain a market competitive but good price. We would recommend June to anybody who is chasing a professional, knowledgeable and friendly agent who works hard to get the job done and gain the best for her client.

Buying a house through June was a transparent and seamless process. It took a few viewings to make a decision and at each inspection she gave us space and time. She is warm and honest, just what a good agent should be. Highly recommend buying or selling through her!
