This outstanding property is located in the medical precinct across the road from the Friendlies Private hospital making it the perfect property for anyone working in the hospitals or other medical facilities within the medical precinct in Bundaberg. It is close to quality private childcare and schools, the CBD, shops and cafes.
Named 'Inglebrae', the house is a meticulously restored, authentic grand old Queenslander (circa 1910). A property like this seldom comes onto the market and once you step inside, you will be left with a lasting impression making you want to stay for a while or maybe forever. The uniqueness of this property with its rich history, charm, class and grace of a bygone era cannot be replicated.
The name 'Inglebrae' pays homage to the original owners, Scottish immigrants Mr and Mrs Ingles. The current owners purchased the property in 1998 and set upon restoring and transforming it into an Award Winning Bed and Breakfast that has been operating for over 15 years. This property is being sold as a residential house on 1012m2 Res B land. However, new owners may continue to operate the council approved Bed and Breakfast business if desired and the furniture is available by separate negotiation if required. The income generated comes from renting out 3 of the bedrooms for $150 per room per night. The potential income for full occupancy is $450 per night or $3150 per week. Repeat business comes from visiting medical professionals, Friendlies Private Hospital and other hospital day patients and local, interstate and international tourists looking to stay in an authentic Queenslander property.
It has been a labour of love for the current owners who have embraced and celebrated the old world charm with their many local, national and international guests with the following review straight out of a county magazine "Elegance, beauty, charm and warmth - these are some of the words that come to mind when you think of Inglegrae".
