Overview

'Harglad' c.1927 - A Landmark Historic Family Home

Held within the same family for a century, this property stands as a rare and treasured piece of Brisbane's history. Situated on a prominent 599 square meter corner parcel with over 50 meters of dual street frontage, the residence benefits from cooling bay breezes and idyllic northern and eastern aspects. This unique combination offers heritage charm, a prime location, and picturesque potential.

The home is a living reflection of a bygone era, named after its builder and original inhabitants. It retains traditional character and craftsmanship, featuring handcrafted detailing, 3.1-meter ceilings, selected hardwood frames and trusses, and softwood finishing timber sourced by the owner's great grandfather, a notable sawmiller and timber merchant in Southeast Queensland. Leadlight glass accents highlight the enduring quality of the home. The existing layout includes multiple living areas, three bedrooms, a double carport, and grassed yards, complemented by a nostalgic Hills Hoist flagpole.

For those looking to reimagine the property, concept plans are available to transform the residence into a remarkable six-bedroom family home, subject to council approval. These plans thoughtfully include a dedicated children's wing, a parents' retreat, and guest quarters. The vision extends outdoors to a swimming pool area, ideal for contemporary living and entertaining.

Whether embracing the existing plans or creating a new vision, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to restore, enhance, and celebrate a property approaching its 100-year milestone.
