A quarter of an acre literally minutes from the CBD - You would be crazy to pass this one up and I'll tell you why. 80 Bowen Road or (Dakota house as it's affectionately known) is a slice of Townsville's history. Being built rock solid back in 1949 by the father of the current owner, this home has withstood more weather events than most of us and has never complained! - she is here to stay! The home is a show piece from a unique era. 3 large bedrooms upstairs with the open flow of the large old Queenslanders. Split system air conditioning and fans make summers a breeze. The home has a large lounge area that is fully air conditioned. The kitchen is a great size with a dining combo that opens out to a secure deck that overlooks the massive 1012sqm fully fenced block. Down stairs you have another large lounge area with a great sized study or teenagers retreat. Complete with a little kitchenette area it's a great place for guests to stay and have their own space. A large workshop area and car accommodation finishes off downstairs before we move over to the shed. Allowing for 3 more cars, trailers or boats, plus another storage area/workshop, it's got enough room there for all the toys plus some space to get some more. Do not miss inspecting this home or you'll regret it! Rates approximately - $1750 per half year.
