11 Palm Ave, Sandgate QLD 4017

Inside, the timeless character of the pre-war home is enhanced by the immaculate care that the current owners have shown to the property. An enclosed, wrap-around veranda extends the living spaces within the home joining three corners of the residence and surrounding a spacious lounge/ living area that finishes at a renovated kitchen, which leads on to the dining room. High ceilings throughout create stunning and expansive airconditioned spaces. The VJ walls add the perfect touch of charm, while the ornate, decorative breezeways that adorn many of the doorways and the timber flooring are other reminders of a bygone era.

The modern addition of a large master bedroom that completes this suite of rooms is enhanced by an adjoining dressing room that could serve as a nursery, study, or ensuite, or be repurposed as the perfect parent's retreat. The adjacent private rear deck is a lovely al fresco area that overlooks established gardens with stairs down to a roomy laundry and a cool and breezy carport with generous storage spaces.

The three bedrooms could seamlessly become five should the canny buyer decide to utilise the sleepouts that currently serve as studies. These spaces are particularly appealing in a post-Covid, work-from-home world in which discreet living and working spaces are essential, while the core of the home offers the benefits of cosy, communal living.

And, as if all these features aren't enough, independent access to the property from Stephensen Street make it ideal for the business-minded investor interested in developing part of the large and picturesque backyard as an Airbnb opportunity.
