Positioned on a prime corner parcel of land just steps from the picturesque Queanbeyan River, this remarkable dual-occupancy property offers a rare blend of character, versatility, and contemporary comfort. Perfect for families, investors, or those seeking a multi-generational living arrangement, this property comprises two distinct dwellings, each with its own unique charm and thoughtful design.
The original residence, a classic Queanbeyan home, is a testament to timeless architecture. Featuring three generous bedrooms, this charming abode radiates warmth with its original finishes and well-preserved details. A standout feature is the Japanese-inspired three-way bathroom, designed to maximise both functionality and aesthetics, offering a tranquil and efficient space for daily routines. With ample living space, full sized kitchen with gas stovetop and an inviting atmosphere, this home provides the perfect foundation for comfortable family living.
The second dwelling, a more contemporary double-storey addition, introduces modern practicality without sacrificing warmth and character. The heart of this home is the open-plan living and dining area, where a built-in dining table fosters a seamless connection between meals and everyday life. Large windows and direct courtyard access create a light-filled, airy ambiance, perfect for entertaining or simply unwinding in a private setting. The well-equipped kitchen is a true highlight, featuring an expansive servery-style breakfast bar that not only enhances the home’s social flow but also offers a practical space for cooking and casual dining.
On the ground floor, two well-sized bedrooms cater to comfort and convenience. One bedroom is cleverly designed with a built-in bed, integrated cupboard, and reverse-cycle air conditioning, making it an ideal retreat for guests or family members. The second bedroom features a built-in robe and enjoys direct access to the thoughtfully designed three-way bathroom, where an open double vanity enhances both functionality and style. Upstairs, the master bedroom has been transformed into a functional workshop with abundant storage, catering to hobbyists, creatives, or those in need of a private retreat. The inclusion of an ACORN Stairlift ensures effortless accessibility, making the upper level suitable for all ages and mobility needs.
