You don’t get to many homes that are 50 years old and are still owned by the people who built the home. Built in 1970 this highest home was built by a local builder named Thorn. All the hardwood timber in the home was also locally milled. Well known Ipswich Cricket identity Nev Buchanan and his wife Sue are selling their home where they raised their children for the last 50 years.
The construction of the home was meticulously overseen, and it is testament to the homes of that era. The sellers are now approaching an age where they don’t want to walk up and down the stairs.
The 3 bedroom full highest brick offers something straight out of 1970. Everything inside the home is stuck in a time warp. The original curtains and carpets are 1970. The fixtures and fittings are all 1970′s. The original elevated stove was bought in 1970.
What the home offers is a great project to renovate and update the home to 2021. The bedrooms are all built in and are typically big as they all were back then. The bathroom is oversize and features a separate bath and shower. The L shaped living room and the good-sized dining area have hardwood floors under the 1970′s carpet. The huge eat in kitchen has miles of cupboards and a walk-in pantry something that was never heard of in those days.
There is a door off the kitchen and double timber doors off the dining area that open onto the rear weatherproof patio that goes the way along the back of the home.
Down the patio stairs takes you to the massive games room still with the pool table ready to play on. The fully separate lockable laundry could be converted to another bathroom as the plumbing is already there for you.
Also the owners had built a separate room with no doors that opens onto the original bbq area. This room offers multiple uses as a wet bar, multi purpose room/bedroom etc. You have miles of lockable storage under the home for your convenience.
The front yard and back yard is completely overgrown with mature trees and shrubs. Don’t be fooled there is a lot of space this 723m2 fully secured block.
On the left hand side of the house there you will find the driveway with side access to the 5.8m x 3.6m shed with power. The home offers so much, and the sellers know that home thou structurally sound needs to be renovated. This is a blank canvas for the renovator, flipper or even a homeowner to move in and do their own thing. The sellers know someone will make a lot of money by bringing this home back to its glory. Located in such a sought after area with Raceview School and Raceview kindergarten only 200m away, Bethany Lutheran School only 500m away. Shops just around the corner, Brothers Leagues Club just down the road. Major shopping centres a mere 5 minutes drive. You are spoilt for choice.
The good news is the home will be auctioned on the 25th September at 2.30pm at the home. Any furniture left in the house by auction day will sold with the home. The sellers are wanting to down size and I have already found them another property so they said we will sell before auction if the price is right. How good is that.
