4 Bright Street, Newtown, QLD 4305

Rare 1930s Bungalow in the Heart of Newtown

Ipswich has no shortage of beautiful character homes, but this 1930s bungalow is something a little different. With its distinctive street appeal, wide front verandah and magnificent front staircase, it is a home many locals will already recognise.

Set on an 809m² block in one of Newtown’s most tightly held streets, the home offers four bedrooms and plenty of room for a family to spread out.

The Silky Oak leadlight entry doors open to polished Hoop Pine floorboards, 12-foot ceilings and the warmth and character you would expect from a home of this era. The upstairs living room includes a fireplace, while the solid timber kitchen and adjoining dining room open onto the covered rear deck overlooking the established backyard.

An internal staircase leads downstairs to a second living area with French doors opening to the yard. Also on this level is a large laundry with a second shower and toilet, workshop and storage space, along with secure accommodation for two cars. The garage doors have been cleverly incorporated so they don’t detract from the home’s traditional street appeal.

Bright Street is a quiet and tightly held part of Newtown, close to schools, shops and the Ipswich CBD. Homes with this combination of architecture, space and position don’t come along very often.
