55 Fortitude Street,
Mount Crosby 4306, Queensland

This is a unique opportunity to acquire a gem that needs a polish. The site has dual street frontages with the home on the quiet Fortitude Street cul de sac while a huge shed is positioned near the high-profile Mount Crosby Road/Tanderra Way intersection. This contemporary home and all other buildings on the property are predominantly of steel-framed construction. Work is needed to restore the property to its former glory.

The structures include the four-bedroom home which is surrounded by tall fences to ensure a high level of privacy. The home's upper level includes a separate entry office fitted with a sink to allow for multiple uses. The kitchen is open plan with a very generous living area which in turn opens to a large covered deck with a spectacular view of the block. The kitchen features a large breakfast bar, a 900cm electric oven, an island bench with double sink and plenty of storage. Brush box timber floors are a striking feature of the home.

The upper level of the bedroom wing has three bedrooms, all fitted with fans, split system air conditioners and built-ins while the main has a sizeable walk-in robe and ensuite. The main bathroom is also on this level along with a separate toilet and laundry.

The lower level of the home extensively uses corrugated iron as a design feature. There is another bedroom on this level as well as an entertainment area boasting a number of storage cupboards. This level could potentially be adapted for dual living. The interior opens to a covered deck with outdoor kitchen facilities.

The saltwater swimming pool has it's own adjacent covered pavilion, water slide and a magnificent private view over this 1.5+ acre property.

Off-street parking is well taken care of with a double garage on street level and adjacent to that is the entry to a 6 car garage which includes a mechanic's pit. Also on this lower garage level is interior space which could be used for either a workshop, gymnasium or simply as storage. Down the block you will find a cubby house with slide and at the rear of the property (facing Mount Crosby Road) is a landmark 32 metre x 11 metre x 5 metre high shed which includes a mezzanine level. The future owner of this home will never say they are short of shed space ever again!

Other notable facilities include landscaped pathways from the home to the lower levels of the acreage. The home has town water as well as a 30,000 litre water tank to service the gardens. There is great potential to restore the extensive lawns, gardens and hedges which have become overgrown in recent years. For more information feel free to contact Ian Keenan at any time.
