The Perfect Seaside Oasis.

Taking centre stage in a prime, seaside location with sweeping views from Castle Hill to the foreshore of Rowes Bay and Pallarenda, Ray White Townsville is immensely proud to introduce 71 Rose Street in North Ward. A quintessential 1950's coastal Queenslander, this residence is commanding in presence and takes full advantage of its position on a well-appointed 1012 square metre block of land. An unapologetic representation of romantic bayside living, without a doubt, this is a property that offers a way of life, and not just a 'place to live'. Welcome home to 'Birdsong'.<br/><br/>With bespoke detailing and a functional design, this home places an emphasis on climate consideration, built with the purpose of capturing year-round, all-encompassing coastal breezes off the shore. The expansive front verandah provides the perfect vantage point for a magical sunset, with wide French doors offering a seamless integration into the main body of the home. Crisp and rich with character, gleaming timber floorboards and an abundance of natural light adorn the combined dining and living space, flowing into a large sunroom with access to the front deck. For those passionate about cooking and entertaining, the kitchen is perfect with a double French servery window, stunning rosewood cabinetry, granite benchtops, and plenty of storage truly lending it the title 'heart of the home'.<br/><br/>At the rear are three, oversized bedrooms, each with split system air-conditioning to stay cool in the summer months and large built-in robes for storage. The bathroom is a spectacle, centrally located to service the whole family, featuring a walk-in shower, separate WC and highlighted with a beautiful double timber vanity. With an exceptional degree of separation, the lower level of the residence has a further enclosed room, perfect for utilisation as a home office, teenagers retreat or games area, and with access to a second bathroom with an abode and walk-in shower. <br/><br/>In true North Queensland style, outdoor living is kept at the forefront of this residence with a multitude of options for entertaining any occasion. Unique in every way and turning your personal residence into a private and tropical oasis, the backyard is truly a sight to behold! Framed with expansive lush grass, timber decking and established tropical gardens, the sparkling, saltwater in-ground pool is the perfect place to cool off on a hot summer's day. At the rear, a thatched, Bali-inspired hut overlooks the water and back towards the house, where the lower-level provides expansive amounts of covered space to cater for even the largest of family gatherings. Whether your weekend calls for shaded pool-side lounging, sharing a merlot with those you love the most, alfresco dining around a fire, a spot of gardening or simply taking in the stars above, here, you will feel right at home. <br/><br/>An outstanding residence of an unrivalled calibre, 71 Rose Street is situated in one of Townsville's most highly sought-after suburbs within proximity to everything you could ever need.
