HISTORIC HOME UP FOR AUCTION

-

THE historic Federation-era “Lillydale” at 11 Gentle St, North Toowoomba, will go under the hammer on-site on Saturday, November 4.

The five-bedroom, three-bathroom colonial masterpiec­e is set on a 3,036 sq m block and has been meticulous­ly maintained for modern family living while retaining the property’s original rustic charm.

With an abundance of space, the property combines ornate features, high ceilings, tongue-and-groove walls, polished timber floors and a sophistica­ted design throughout to achieve a breathtaki­ng compositio­n.

Through the picket fence and up the garden path, the home is framed by an impressive veranda bedecked with wrought-iron lacework and a gorgeous front door finished with ornate stain-glass roses.

The design incorporat­es five generously proportion­ed bedrooms, all with built-in storage and three with walk-in robes.

The master suite boasts an ensuite with shower and toilet, with bedrooms two and three sharing a dual-access bathroom.

At the rear of the block sits the tennis court and in-ground swimming pool.

This well-establishe­d property is framed with lush greenery including English Elm, Liquid Amber and Pine Oak trees.

Enviably positioned within the heart of North Toowoomba in a quiet leafy street, the home resides in close proximity to the city, local cafes and restaurant­s, and is only a short drive to quality schooling.

The property is listed on realestate.com.au by Dominic Ryan for Colliers Internatio­nal Toowoomba.
