Maree Street

From and outdated 1960’s family home lacking space, to the ultimate 2020’s modern Queenslander!

This property was purchased back in 2016, with the age-old idea of buying the worst house in the best street! In saying that, it had so much potential and the dwellings structural integrity was deemed as excellent for its age!

The dwelling has been transformed from home your grandparents would have grown up in, to a modern rendition of the lowset Queenslander-style home. The house has been widened by means of a 900 wide cantilever each side to allow for sufficient for 3 x modern size bedrooms with a hallway through into the rear garage/laundry/staircase and master suite on the 1st floor.

Internally, the home has been finished with modern fixtures and fittings throughout, whilst still capturing the style of home via beautiful rejuvenated timber floors, and spacious wet areas. Externally, we have managed to maintain the original heritage style with a modern twist to ensure we were still consistent with the Cairns Regional council guidelines given the dwelling is located within a characteristic overlay.
