Few character homes offer this level of scale, flexibility and cohesion.
Lifted, renovated and designed for modern family life, this 1920s Queenslander balances heritage with genuine versatility.

Set back behind established trees and manicured hedging, the home reveals itself gradually; private, composed and unmistakably homely. From the outset, it feels like a residence that has been genuinely cared for, where time has softened its edges without diminishing its presence.

Originally built in the 1920s and thoughtfully lifted and transformed over time, the home now stands as a substantial yet welcoming family residence. Its freshly painted exterior, traditional window hoods and wraparound verandahs honour its heritage, while the scale hints quietly at the space within.

Upstairs, the home breathes. Extra-high ceilings rise above polished hoop pine floors, breezeways guide air gently through the living spaces, and double-hung windows draw light from every angle. A striking band of coloured stained-glass windows spans the main living area, casting soft tones across the space throughout the day and creating a memorable focal point.

This upper level is where family life naturally gathers. Open-plan living and dining connect seamlessly to the expansive wraparound verandahs, allowing you to follow the sun, catch the breeze, or pause to take in the elevated outlook. It is a level designed for comfort, connection and everyday ease.

Four generous bedrooms are positioned upstairs. The master suite offers a calm retreat with walk-in robe, ensuite featuring his-and-hers vanity, and direct access onto the verandah. A second bedroom also opens outdoors, reinforcing the strong indoor – outdoor relationship that defines the home.

The main bathroom mirrors this sense of considered scale, featuring a deep bathtub, walk-in shower, double vanity, separate powder room and toilet.

Downstairs, the home reveals its outstanding flexibility. Fully renovated and finished to the same standard as above, this level includes two additional bedrooms, multiple living spaces, a plumbed kitchenette and a modern bathroom. Large bi-fold doors open to a covered entertaining zone, extending the living space naturally into the garden. Whether accommodating extended family, teenagers, guests or dual-living arrangements, this level adapts with ease. A study nook beneath the internal staircase adds a practical, well-considered touch.

Outdoors, the property continues to impress. Pathways wrap the home, gardens are mature and meticulously maintained, and the backyard feels more like a retreat than a traditional yard. A landscaped firepit area invites evenings beneath the trees, while the scale of the block allows room for future additions such as a pool or shed. High fencing, dual street frontage, three driveway access points and secure electric garaging provide privacy, functionality and peace of mind.

Despite its sense of seclusion, the location remains highly convenient. Booval Train Station, Booval Fair Shopping Centre and major highway access are all close by, making daily life easy while preserving the tranquillity of this quiet, family-friendly street.

What sets this home apart is not simply its size, renovation or features; but the way it lives. Warm, breezy and highly adaptable, it is a home designed to support family life in all its evolving forms, where character is respected, space is enhanced, and comfort is effortless.

This is a Queenslander that feels as good as it looks – ready to be lived in, grown into, and enjoyed for years to come.
