GRAND ORIGINAL COLONIAL

Delightfully kept soo original it is a rare opportunity to acquire this significant property in such a glorious condition.

Pride of place on a corner position on 1009 sq metres, wrapped in wide open verandahs, this magnificent beauty is surrounded by an abundance of heritage property in tree lined streets.

The stunning silky oak leadlight entry opens to a wide hall featuring a pressed metal ceiling.

A decorative timber arch leads to the elegant formal living area, which is also adorned by outstanding pressed metal ceilings, as is the main bedroom.

French doors with coloured glass lead from all bedrooms to the wide verandahs.

A separate formal dining or second living area is located off the large eat-in kitchen and features coloured glass sliding windows.

A very gorgeous, quirky area, most likely maid’s quarters, still as the original odenal green paint and separate stair access.

This home has a presence that only an inspection will give a true appreciation of its timeless beauty.

With four bedrooms and expansive living and verandah space with delightful backyard with side access, this home awaits the next chapter of its journey.

The corrugated iron roof extends over the wrap around verandahs and features a slatted apical gablet with finial. This detail is repeated in the entry with a slatted pediment infill, also with finial. Full-length sash windows overlook the front verandah, which features some unusual and graceful timber detailing. The triple rail dowelled balustrading is contrasted by crossed members central to the verandah bays. These crossed members also feature between the paired uprights of the entry bay. The paired, curved, solid timber brackets atop the verandah uprights are complemented by the curved pieces in the small verandah entry gate. The front picket fence frames the picture.

You will wait a long time for another opportunity such as this.

Please call for a welcome inspection.

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!
