Industrial chic in South Townsville

02 JUN 2018

A BRAND new home with industrial chic style has hit the market in South Townsville aimed at appealing to young professionals searching for a trendy base to call home.

The house is the brainchild of designer Pam Ellis and was built by Ellis Developments.

It has four bedrooms, two bathrooms, double lock up garage and is on a 466sq m block.

Construction on the house started in January before it was finished about three weeks ago.

Ms Ellis said she designed the home around the huge mango tree which takes pride of place in the backyard.

“I wanted the entertaining and the living areas facing the mango tree because that’s where the breeze comes in and you get the shade from the tree as well,” she said.

“I was thinking the house would suit young professionals and that’s why it has more of an industrial feel hence the pendant and rock concrete wall.

“I wanted a point of difference and that obviously means the buyer has to be unique as well.”

Upon entering the home, stairs lead to the elevated dining area where a statement pendant light draws the eye upwards to the soaring ceilings and high windows.

The kitchen also has a clear window splashback, stone bench tops, walk-in pantry and all the latest high-end appliances.

A hallway with a raw cement wall leads though to the bedrooms and bathrooms while the large master bedroom also has an ensuite.

1/31 Nelson St will be open for inspection on Sunday from 11.30am to 12pm and Tuesday from 12pm to 1pm.
