8 Macaranga Street, Algester, Qld 4115

This is the real deal, readers. On the market for the first time in 43 years and privately positioned on a block lovingly transformed over time by Grandma into a leafy, tranquil sanctuary, this charming 3-bedroom home with a big pool is brimming with genuine '70s era architectural and interior decor features that are now highly prized by design-savvy buyers who appreciate their value and allure. 

Highlights:

- Gorgeous vintage '70s wallpaper, patterned entry foyer tiling, feature pendant lighting
- Original timber-laminate kitchen with white split-level countertops & a wall-mounted oven 
- A/C in master bed with half sized ensuite (toilet and basin) & combined kitchen/dining room, hybrid floors in family room
- Carpeted lounge + a separate tiled entertaining room/Man Cave/storage/office by the pool
- Super location only a 500-800m walk to city-bound buses, parks, daycare, Algester Primary 

After a lifetime of love, it's time for Grandma's house to begin a new chapter under new custodians which, depending on the buyer, could see its vintage cool interior remain fully intact or, perhaps sensitively updated to add to refurbishments already undertaken over the years to ramp up the comfort factor.

Right now, this delightful home sits behind a tropical-inspired front garden, the centrepiece of which is a majestic mature tree that shades the interior from the sting of summer. Intricate wrought iron gates run across both the driveway up to the tandem two-car garage and a pedestrian gate leading along a stone-paved pathway to the front door.

Inside, vintage tiling spans the light-filled entry foyer and works perfectly with bespoke lighting and a palm-tree patterned, wallpapered feature wall. What a first impression! On either side are living areas - one a carpeted formal space, the other a more contemporary-styled, hybrid floored family room flowing into an air-conditioned meals area next to the kitchen.

Light-hued kit-kat style tiled splashbacks make a striking contrast against the rich tones of the authentic 70's era timber laminate kitchen. We love the split-level white countertops that create a cosy corner dining nook with a birds' eye view of the cook at work in a practical space with a wall-mounted oven and four-burner stove top among its original features.

The three bedrooms are deep pile carpeted, the master with a cute half sized ensuite (toilet & basin),  A/C and soaring arched windows to the garden, and one other with a fab wallpapered feature wall. All share access to a full main bathroom with both a shower and tub.

An intimate covered patio area off the main house provides a protected spot behind glass safety fencing, for watching friends or family at play in the big inground swimming pool in the fenced backyard. Another vantage point is from the standalone extra entertainment room - a tiled space that could work just as well as a hobby room, side hustle headquarters, art studio or storeroom! 

From this unique suburban oasis, you can stroll to city-bound bus stops, as well as Algester State School via Timberland Park. A short drive will get you to Calamvale District Park, Algester Asia Market, Drakes at Parkinson, Calamvale Central, Calamvale Community College, or onto the M1.

Make this much-loved, character-filled home the start of your next or first property adventure.
