185 Norman Avenue, Norman Park

Elegant Queenslander living within 10 minutes of Brisbane's CBD, renovated and refined for a luxurious, low-maintenance inner-city lifestyle. This five-bedroom, three-bathroom, exquisitely presented character residence is set back from Norman Avenue on an elevated, gated corner parcel of land with an ideal northeast-facing orientation attracting an abundance of natural light and refreshing breezes. A wraparound balcony framing the open-plan living, dining and kitchen area, and accessible via French doors, provides a beautiful outdoor setting from which to enjoy city glimpses. Entertaining is a relaxed affair, supported by an attractive and functional kitchen with a large island bench, SMEG appliances and an Electrolux induction cooktop. The majority of the upper level is adorned with restored 1920s features, including 3.2m-high VJ board ceilings and walls. Two of the five bedrooms include custom workstations, and one offers its own private balcony entry perfect for running a home-business and welcoming clients separately. The master is a private sanctuary, complete with an ensuite, walk-in wardrobe and access through the nearby laundry to the covered patio outside. Inner-city convenience and connection are at a premium here, with established parklands, prestigious schools and public transport services all within walking distance. Norman Park's Poet's Corner is envied for its proximity to everything wonderful, without sacrificing community spirit or street appeal. - Freehold, fully gated residence with electronic front gate for security - Set back from Norman Avenue on an elevated corner block with northeast aspect - Restored VJ board ceilings and walls, polished timber floors, plantation shutters - Attractive kitchen with SMEG appliances and Electrolux induction cooktop - Fully zoned ducted air-conditioning, plus split-system in master bedroom - Low-maintenance landscaping with artificial turf and automatic watering system Norman Park State School - 1.3km Anglican Church Grammar School - 1.5km Lourdes Hill College - 1.8km Dovetail on Overend - 850m The Koffee Co - 1km Bellissimo Coffee Coorparoo - 1.2km Vectis Street Park - 100m Wilson Park 600m Norman Park Train Station - 300m Bus Stop to CBD - 1km Mowbray Park Ferry Terminal - 2.3km
