21 Murphy St, Ipswich, Qld 4305

Positioned on the rise of the north facing side of Denmark Hill one of Ipswich’s most sought after locations, this stunning Queenslander has all the wants on everyone’s wish list.

Built in 1901 for a local Chemist, the home sits across 2 titles on 844m2.  The property is bound by an exquisite white picket hardwood fence built to last and a crisp contrast to the emerald green lawns, manicured hedges, and the 3-tiered yard culminates in a level lawned space ideal for a game of cricket or room for a pool.

The sharp contrast of the freshly painted exterior in white with black trim is breath taking.

Unique opportunity of three street frontage set in an enclave of quirky historical homes and matures trees including the poinciana at the front.  The secure double garage is positioned to the rear maximising yard space.

Entry through the front gate leads through lattice doors to wrap around front and side verandahs which enjoy views to St Mary’s Cathedral, Ipswich Grammar, the CBD and the D’Aguilar mountain range.

The solid front timber door opens to a traditional hall with two built-in bedrooms and large home office with leadlight dividing doors and separate access to the verandah through French doors.

Spectacular views to the north through the picture window are enjoyed from the large formal living room. 

A very large functional solid country style timber kitchen has room for casual table and chairs and all the charm of a working fireplace.

Conveniently the laundry with excellent storage is located off the kitchen and could double as a butler’s pantry.

Great dining space is beside the kitchen and flows out to the rear deck overlooking the garden.

Continuing the black and white theme, the family bathroom on this level features an antique 1901 bath sourced from a homestead – possibly a horse trough in a previous century.

Internal stairs lead to the second living area which spills out through French doors to the lawned space.

3 built-in bedrooms plus study nook and second bathroom is perfect for extended family or guests.

A large lockable storage area is an ideal workshop space.

Located minutes from CBD, Top of Town Precinct, Ipswich Grammar, Catholic Precinct, Ipswich General Hospital, University and Riverlink.

Perfect home for those who understand and appreciate premium real estate.  A twenty-year restoration by the current owners has produced the most comprehensive attention to detail I have seen.
