Auction Location: On Site.
Currently under offer.
Camp Hill is one of Brisbane's most desired and affluent suburbs, offering inner-city living in a leafy environment. How quickly can you move? Our seller is moving to another part of the country and is motivated to sell this charming home.
Camp Hill is renowned for its historical charm and Bundah Street Cottage is no exception.
Welcome to the unique sanctuary of Bundah Street Cottage, on a sprawling 718m2. A turn of the century historical post office from Stone's Corner, relocated to this site after 1946 means this is one of a kind and a wonderful find.
This family -friendly slice of history is delightfully quirky, offering VJ walls and high ceilings, timber floors and rambling verandas, oozing space and charm. It must be seen to be believed and is surprisingly spacious.
This is one of Camp Hill's best streets for its proximity to Camp Hill State School (at the top of the road), and is close to the Camp Hill Village area on Old Cleveland Road with Antique centre, coffee shops and local amenities, as well as Samuel Street Village shops and White's Hill bushland. Throw away the car keys and walk everywhere. You can almost live off the grid, only a few kms to the city!
