Summary: Avon Calling!
Description: Spend your hard earned dollars or bank supplied funds on this beauty that is located just a few km from the bustling Ipswich CBD and is within an easy walk to the local park, bus stops, school, day care, shops and pool. The awesome street appeal of this solid and flood free home continues into the inside with a stylish slap in the face upon entry thanks to the timber flooring found mostly throughout, air conditioned lounge/dining/kitchen, separate dining space that exits out onto the covered front deck and the sexy updated kitchen complete with a 900mm wide mains gas fed cooktop, electric oven, big fridge space, microwave nook, dishwasher, pantry, slide out storage solutions and plenty of display cabinets. All 3 good sized bedrooms have ceiling fans whilst the very large sized air conditioned main bedroom also gifts y'all a double door built in robe. The updated bathroom sits amongst the bedrooms and has a top/bottom built in linen storage area with an included combo washer/dryer in the centre and included in the sale. This awesome tweak should mean that the laundry gets done more often thanks to the convenience factor as opposed the wandering across the large rear deck and downstairs to the traditional separate laundry area under the home. Another awesome and space saving addition to the bathroom is the soft close barn door across the entry which I love! A large rear deck is also easily accessed from the kitchen area and has external stairs that lead to the fully fenced rear yard and large under deck area that could also be utilised as extra parking or storage space. Beneath the home you will find the traditional laundry space, concrete stumps, some concrete floor workshop/storage area as well as room for 2 cars parked tandem. The entire 607m2 is fully fenced and also has some secondary rear yard fencing with double gates at the front of the carport to enable easy access into the rear yard and the under house carparking. This way the 2 and 4 legged kids can stay safely fenced in within the rear yard if entering and exiting the carport or front yard. Potential side access to park the caravan/boat/motorhome etc could also easily be done on the right side of the home if so desired or required. Solar Power harnesses the suns power whilst the mains gas supply fuels the kitchen cooktop and the hot water system. Block size: 607m2 Bedrooms: 3 Bathrooms: 1 Formal lounge: 1 Car accommodation: 3 Outdoor entertainment: Large rear deck & covered front deck Fenced yard: Fully fenced yard as well as secondary rear yard fencing to keep the mutts and kids within the rear portion Air conditioning: Lounge/Kitchen/Dining & Main Brm Roof Type: Iron Roof Insulation: Roof insulation Security: Security camera Solar: Solar Power System Gas: Mains Gas Kitchen Cooktop & Hot water Tenants: Nope Amenities: Walk to park/bus stop/school/day care/shops/ pool Flood Free? - Yes Sir/Ma'am Disclaimer: While every effort has been made to ensure the accuracy of the information provided in this advertisement, Housequest cannot guarantee the completeness, correctness, or currency of the details.

Summary: Give In to this Given!
Description: Stop whining about not having enough 'large' sized block options available now that you have seen this CBD fringe dweller upon 1054m2 that no doubt would have 3 homes upon it if it was located within some of the new development estates! This flood free gem gives you plenty of space, is tucked away at the end of a sleepy cul de sac street and has had more updates than my new iPhone 17 (Now that's a lot of updates!) This solid double brick Approx 1986 built beauty has a superwide concrete driveway that leads into the double remote controlled door carport that also has some workshop/storage space at the front of it. This car accommodation could also potentially easily convert to a home office/business from home if so desired or required and would leave you with plenty of concreted area in front of it to add a carport for the daily drivers. A new Approx 6.1kw solar power system sits up top of the Approx 2008 updated iron roof with insulation tucked in under it for your comfort pleasure. Speaking of comfort this 5 bedroom and 2.5 bathroom home also has zoned ducted aircon pumping thru it and a split system aircon within the master suite so you don't need the ducted system on at night if you don't particularly like your kids. The large air conditioned Master Suite has a ceiling fan, tv connection point, hugeeee walk in robe that looks as if it is directly out of a home in the Hollywood Hills and an adjoining super tidy ensuite bathroom. Timber look hybrid flooring runs throughout most of the home with plush carpet found within the 5 bedrooms and the posh sunken formal lounge that is complete with a brick built open fireplace. 3 of the 4 good sized remaining bedrooms have ceiling fans and double door built in robes with 2 of them also gifting y'all tv connection points. The tidy updated main bathroom definitely does the job whilst the separate laundry with its own unique rustic timber bench top, I swear seems larger than some public laundromats! The spacious kitchen has new benchtops, sink, tapware and is also equipped with a top/bottom double door pantry, gas bottle fueled kitchen cooktop, dishwasher and a large fridge space. This space looks out over the home's entry area, family room and out to the behemoth of a dining area. A handy powder room/3rd toilet is also located toward this end of the home so visitors need not wander into the bedroom wing of the home to use the loo. A skylight shines natural light into the kitchen and family room with some natural air flow supplied from 4 sliding glass doors at this bustling end of the home that open up to the great outdoors. Speaking of great outdoors, an obscene amount of money was just spent to refurbish this inground saltwater concrete pool that also included a new pool robot cleaner with associated pool pumps and equipment also upgraded within the last 3.5 years. The mostly fenced rear yard has plenty of room for the 2 and 4 legged kids and thankfully this large block can accommodate such a large ranch style home, pool, garage and still leave space to spare! Plenty of fresh paint has also been brushed around as well as the addition of modern 4 square inlay internal doors and plenty of tidy finishes that this much loved sprawling family sized home deserves. Gas hot water pumps thru the home and this handy to plenty location means that you are close to a local High School, have a front row seat to the Ipswich Show Fireworks display, can walk to the Uni and save on campus parking drama's, wander to the Ipswich Medical Precinct and be close to the pumping hear of the Ippy CBD. Block size: 1054m2 Bedrooms: 5 Bathrooms: 2 + powder room 3rd loo and vanity (Yeehah!)

Summary: Grab this Tiger by the tail!
Description: Since most properties are described as being on the CBD fringe...this one can be labelled as being on the CBD forehead with its super convenient location being so close to services, amenities, retail, food options, gym, Bunnings, school, day care, IGA, homemaker centre, bus stops and more. Simply put one foot in front of the other to get to work, dinner, exercise, shopping and potentially be one of those people who wheels the shopping trolley home with you! You can simply sell the car or if you want to keep it then this mostly fenced 493m2 block has enough side access and rear yard space to add the Garage Mahal or capitalise on the convenient location and possibly add a Granny Flat if approved to do so! This Circa 1924 built cottage has been within the same family since 1963 and after some freshening up with internal and external paint and a bit of chiropractic by adding in some adjustable metal stumps and a new support beam...is now ready to serve someone else for another 63 years and then Tank Lee the third could probably sell it for you in 2089. The enclosed front verandah/sleepout welcomes you inside and opens up into a good sized lounge/dining room with amazing original wide cut floorboards, high ceilings and a peek at some of the old school t & g timber features found dotted throughout. The great sized bedroom definitely does the job whilst the tidy, light and bright kitchen complete with a bottled gas fed cooktop/oven as well as the adjoining bathroom with separate loo are found at the rear of the home. The kitchen space exits out onto the covered rear deck and the euro styled laundry is tucked away behind double doors and is built into one side of the deck area. Why pay more for a similar sized unit within a complex that has no yard, neighbours too close for comfort and a quarterly body corp bill when you can own your own home and block of dirt on the forehead of the bustling Ipswich CBD! Block size: 493m2 Bedrooms: 1 Bathrooms: 1 Formal lounge: 1 Family room: Enclosed front verandah/sleepout Outdoor entertainment: Covered rear deck Fenced yard: Mostly fenced yard Roof Type: Iron Gas: Btl Gas fed kitchen cooktop/oven Tenants: Nope Amenities: On the CBD Doorstep!
