22 Railway Avenue, Railway Estate

Big on Charm, Small on Price

A Classic Home, great Central location. Blending period charm with modern style in a sought after suburb. In the quiet, service road side of Railway Ave and just minutes to the City Centre and Ross River bikeway. Convenient to the local Primary and High School and just a short stroll to Reid Park, the site of the V8 Supercars. Two Bedrooms and four other rooms that could be extra bedrooms, work or play spaces as desired. Newly renovated Kitchen and dining room with gas cooking and hot water. With the traditional charm of high ceilings and fans in all the central rooms, this house is a classic 1920s workers' cottage that was transported from Charters Towers in the 1960s. Most of the wooden stumps have recently been replaced with steel. Pest inspection confirms no termites or rot in the house. Under-house areas are partly paved and with a concrete slab, incorporating a laundry area and lockup storage room. It has recently been fully painted outside and new stairways have been added both front and rear.
A bonus is the exclusive rear laneway access.
The 405sqm block has both shady and sunny areas for gardening and a variety of plant life. You will fall in love with the two magnificent producing mango trees, one of which is a ‘bowen’. Other tropical fruit trees include star apple, Brazilian cherry, black sapote, a large syzigium and several soursop trees. At the front of the house is an Indian neem and an umbrella tree which are brilliant for birds. At the back of the house is a covered, paved patio for barbeque or outdoor dining.
The house has been well maintained with scope for further enhancement with your innovative ideas.
