The Bold And The Beautiful

Brimming with traditional character and a charm like no other, this historic home has had quite the journey! This quintessential classic Queenslander pre-dating the 1920's has been lovingly restored by the current owners to pay homage to its roots and establish its presence as a new part of South Townsville's burgeoning history. Exuberating a perfectly harmonious relationship of traditional and updated, modern features, and located in one of Townsville's most standout suburbs, this landmark residence is truly a sight to behold.

With an undeniable commanding street presence, 1B Fourth Avenue equally maintains its warmth whilst exuding crisp, cool tones to accentuate the classic front façade. Through the double front gates and up the stairs, you enter the home into an expansive sunroom, adorned the whole way around with beautiful casement windows allowing the tropical breeze to whip through the space. The master suite is situated at the rear and exhibits generous proportions with extra-high ceilings and plenty of room, a picturesque bay window, and a modern ensuite with adjoining walk-in-robe. The remaining three bedrooms are spacious and all feature built-in robes for added storage.

If you are an entertainer at heart, this is surely the home for you with a versatile floorplan exhibiting multiple living areas to accommodate space for everyone. The central sitting room is the perfect location for family movie night, whilst the heart of the home, the kitchen, is substantial in every way and makes use of a clever design with all the important details carefully considered. The kitchen plays homage to the traditionalism of the home with shaker style cupboards, 70mm stone benchtops and a huge, 900mm 5-burner gas cooktop and oven. The unique layout also features dual sinks with the main, double sink hidden around the corner to service an open, but concealed butlers' space.

When the cheese platter has been laid out and the wine has been poured, afternoons are spent relaxing and admiring the sunset from the comfort of your balcony, the perfect place to take advantage of the easy going outdoor, North Queensland lifestyle. Low-maintenance living is our specialty and owning a Queenslander doesn't have to mean never-ending maintenance. The backyard is fully fenced to accommodate the children and the pets with beautiful, tropical landscaping, freshly laid turf, and an abundance of fruit trees. Storage underneath the home is plentiful and was stumped to legal height, so if an expansion in the future is in your cards, you're all set and ready to go, and there is ample room for the cars, boat and trailer with exclusive laneway access and two separate entry points.

If the above wasn't enough to captivate you, then the location of the home might! At the end of the next street over is the South Townsville boat ramp with playgrounds, picnic spots, recreational BBQ's, multiple ramps, and jetties to fish off. If your trip doesn't bear the fruits of your labours, then a swift 5-minutes by car finds you at NQ Marina Fresh seafood with more trawlers than the eye can see! The avid footy fan can cheer on the Cowboys at the Queensland Country Bank Stadium only a short trip up the road, with the wonders of boutique shopping and fine dining are endless along Palmers Street, Flinders Street and The Strand only a hop, skip and jump up the road.

It's easy to see why South Townsville is so desirable, and houses now more than ever are selling faster than the fish can swim. With absolutely all the guess work taken out and all the hard yards done for you, 1B Fourth Avenue is the gift that keeps on giving and is ready to lend its walls for a new family to call home.
