Description: Lifted high above the street, this classic timber Queenslander looks out across rooftops and treetops to the hills on the horizon, and the moment you step onto the front verandah, you understand why. There is a stillness up here, a sense of space and sky that is hard to find and even harder to give up. Wide views, big open sky and a home that has clearly held a lot of life.
From the street, the character is unmistakable. A green picket fence frames a neat front lawn, timber steps rise to the entry, and weatherboard walls sit beneath a green corrugated roof, now with solar panels fitted to help keep the power bills in check. A long concrete driveway runs beside the house, and timber-edged garden beds at the front are ready for the next gardener to fill.
Inside, the details do the talking. Timber-lined walls, a decorative fretwork archway, French doors with coloured glass panels and a light-filled sunroom where stained-glass windows in amber and green scatter colour across the floor. These are the features that new homes spend a fortune trying to imitate, and here they are the real thing. Bedrooms are generous, with timber-lined walls, lined ceilings and windows that catch the breeze, and one room features timber floorboards just waiting to be restored to their best. A louvre-door built-in robe and plenty of storage keep things practical.
At the back of the home, the kitchen and dining space opens up in a big, bright, tiled room with large windows that look straight out to the hills. A sliding door leads to the rear deck, so morning coffee, Sunday breakfasts and long summer evenings all come with a view. There is room here for the big family table and everyone who gathers around it.
Then there is the space beneath. The fully enclosed lower level is a rare bonus, with concrete floors, block and timber-lined rooms, a laundry and utility area, and its own accessible bathroom with a wet-area shower, grab rails and a generous layout. Whether you picture a teenager's retreat, a home office, a studio, a workshop or accommodation for extended family, the footprint is there and the possibilities are wide open (subject to the usual council approvals).
Out the back, 1,335sqm (approx.) of fully fenced land gives everyone room to breathe. A large, easy lawn is ready for cricket, dogs, veggie patches and bonfires and the elevated position lifts the outlook from the yard out to the hills.
And the location makes life easy. Gympie CBD and Gympie Central, the hospital, the showgrounds, the aquatic centre and soccer fields, and a choice of schools including Gympie State High School, James Nash State High School and St Patrick's College are all close by.
This is a home with good bones, a big personality and a block that gives you room to grow into it. Bring your ideas, your family and your love of character homes. Come and feel what it is like to live up here.
