50 Pine Street, North Ipswich, Qld 4305

Just the thought of being able to buy a classic old home that Ipswich is reknowned for is a great thing. The other positives are when it is flood free, has a commanding street presence, is on the high side of the street barely minutes from the CBD, has an elevated position that delivers views over Ippy and the surrounding neighbourhood as well as distant Mountain Vista views of the Goolman Ranges, sits on a large mostly fenced 1012m2 piece of goodness and is solid yet ready for reno's with plenty of floor size to make it into a large family sized home.

This home has been within the family for over 60 years and was actually built and not assembled like the homes are today and will no doubt still be standing proud on her high heels when the modern boxes end up like a blown out plugger. The solid and decorative front fence and front yard access steps probably contain more bricks than the modern builds and don't get me started on the yard size comparison!!

The driveway leads up alongside the home and into the roomy rear yard where you have a double garage to park within, plenty of room to turn around and drive back out again as well as a yard for your 2 or 4 legged kids to enjoy as opposed to visiting a 'community park' because you have no yard. For all you fishkillers the other bonus is a boat ramp is just down the road and forget about fighting for or paying for carparking since the North Ipswich Primary school, a day care facility and of course the CBD is just down the road!

Upstairs you will discover a large retro kitchen and dining area, big sitting room or formal dining area, huge air conditioned lounge room, 2 large bedrooms + an enclosed sleepout as well as a supersized front sunroom with a great outlook from its elevated overlook. The bathroom has not only seen plenty of nudity over 60+ years but has also seen better days yet still does its job. It has a unique double door built in linen cupboard and the separate loo also has a built in linen and shelving...which is different but I guess works!

This large footprint combined with mostly high ceilings throughout definitely lends itself to tweak the layout during renovation to maximise the use of the large space on offer and bring it into todays style and standards.

Front and rear external stairs lead to the lower level that is mostly concreted throughout with good head height (for me anyway), and is where you will find a separate laundry space, lockable storeroom, plenty of storage or rec room space as well as the 2nd loo (Thank Baby Jesus!).

Low maintenance external cladding is wrapped around the home, 2 rainwater tanks catch the free cloud juice, a termite barrier guards against the nibblers, roof insulation keeps the climate just the way you like it whilst the epic front fence and yard entry steps just add to the already awesome street appeal.

Over a Quarter acre of flood free goodness on the CBD fringe! If y'all miss this opportunity then I'm sure you will wish that your knee bent backwards so you could kick your own butt!
