Beautiful character home near Alma Bay

Built in 1934, this characterful home has been lovingly well-maintained and oozes a charm that seems impossible to replicate in modern homes. 

On a large 1178m2 block, the home is tucked away and very private from the quiet no-through road, approx 300m from everyone's favourite beach, Alma Bay. 

Walking up the garden path, a large covered verandah brings you up to the front door. Entering into the lounge, the extra-high timber-lined ceiling gives a wonderful sense of space yet also warmth, while casement windows and doors, combined with intricate fretwork, make this feel like a real old Queenslander home. 

The home is spacious with lounge and a formal dining room leading to the modern kitchen with further dining area. Built before the days of air con, air flow was an important factor and design features throughout the home ensure excellent cross-ventilation - high ceilings, louvre windows, breezeways etc. The roof has been replaced and insulated with a whirlybird for additional cooling. 

There are two large bedrooms, both with casement bay windows framed by fretwork, and two smaller bedrooms. The main bedroom has a split system air con and opens into a large walk-through wardrobe/store. A light and airy hallway houses the laundry at one end, off which is the bathroom and third bedroom. 

With two outdoor entertaining areas - the large covered front verandah and a side covered patio off the formal dining area, you can enjoy different views of the colourful cottage garden. 

There's a double carport plus a huge shed with three phase power - and split system air con! There's even room for a pool - but who needs one with Alma Bay just around the corner?
