39 YABBA STREET. ASCOT

Fernleigh is an expansive Colonial home in one of Ascot’s most desirable streets. The street appeal of 39 Yabba Street is matched only by its location. Surrounded by other prestigious homes in a quiet street lined with flowering Poinciana trees, you will feel immediately at home. Sprawling across a double block, this property has been renovated to the standard of the modern family – enjoying a fusion of character and contemporary features.

Greeted by a landscaped front garden and idyllic wrap-around verandahs, the property is ideal for a family. Upstairs comprises multiple living areas, including an elegant formal lounge with fireplace and separate formal living. Three of the four bedrooms are situated on this level, each generously sized with air-conditioning for your comfort. The second and master bedrooms are complemented by renovated ensuite bathrooms.

The modern kitchen is the heart of the home; centrally located and opening directly onto the rear entertaining deck, this is the ideal location to host family and friends. A unique feature of this property is the ability to take advantage of the outdoor space; the dining room can be opened up via bi-fold doors to create an alfresco area, perfect to take advantage of the balmy Brisbane weather and breezes.

Downstairs, the fourth bedroom offers external access, built-in storage, and its own bathroom. This provides the option of dual living or a teenage retreat. Finally, an expansive multi-purpose room completes the internal of the home; whether you are seeking an additional rumpus room, home studio or to create additional bedrooms, the options are limited only by your imagination.

This coveted location is surrounded by other prestigious homes, only 7km from the Brisbane CBD and a short distance to the Racecourse Road precinct plus other amenities. Located within the Ascot State School catchment, other private secondary schools are within a short drive.
