Wow, this isn't your regular Queenslander, Lakeview was built here as the homestead for a larger property and definitely has the unique character you look for in a historic residence. It's a really comfortable family home, plenty of space with a range of living areas from the massive central room to smaller internal spaces, the big front verandah overlooking the park, and a much more casual back bar downstairs.

The kitchen is built from scratch to modern standards with loads of bench space, dishwasher, walk in pantry, and still retains the character of another era with plenty of natural light and fresh air, and full ceiling height.
Central to the bedrooms is the main bathroom, with full size tub and separate shower, plus there are three separate toilets. The main bedroom has it's own bathroom and robe, bay windows and french doors to that lovely front verandah.

The 3 bay carport is likely to be converted from the original stables, there is a separate carport also, plus there is still plenty of room in the yard for backyard cricket or kicking a ball around. Also behind the single carport is an open workshop / bar / bbq area with fire pit to give you another space separate from the house. There have been extensive upgrades and restoration work completed in the current owners stewardship, the home sits square on concrete stumps, doors and windows open and close correctly, and it's ready for another family to make a part of their life.

Position is always important, the lovely parklands are such an asset to Maryborough, and within walking distance you have kids playgrounds, waterpark, skatepark and new pump track, extensive walking paths, bbq area, netball and tennis courts plus the highly regarded Maryborough Golf Club is on the other side of the lake. The general precinct is close to schools, local shopping, historic Carriers Arms Hotel, and a group of other early settler homes are in a tight radius also. If the beach is calling it’s about a 30 minute drive to the sandy beaches of Hervey Bay or Toogoom.

There is so much more to this property, there aren't many homes with this kind of water view and parkland access. Ask any local about the house on the corner of Cheapside and Ann St, it's a local landmark and most will know it as an outstanding and beautiful historic residence that doesn't change hands often, and there's now a chance to own it yourself.
