Overview

This elegantly restored Queenslander, dating back to 1900, offers a harmonious blend of period charm and contemporary comfort. Set within a coveted inner-city location just a short stroll from The Gabba, the home exudes character and spaciousness, perfect for those who appreciate a residence with history in an accessible lifestyle precinct.

The interior showcases soaring ceilings and warm timber flooring, enriched by delicate fretwork and leadlight windows that evoke the home's heritage. Modern renovations have been sensitively integrated, resulting in a living space that caters adeptly to today's family living and entertaining needs.

The residence centers around generous living and dining areas, seamlessly connecting to a bright and practical kitchen equipped with a 900mm gas cooktop and farmhouse-style sink. A thoughtfully designed servery opens to an expansive covered deck where indoor and outdoor living merge, framed by leafy elevated views that set a relaxed tone for gatherings.

Designed for flexibility, the five-bedroom layout spans two levels. The upper floor houses principal living spaces alongside bedrooms and bathrooms, while the lower level offers a separate living area, additional bedrooms, bathroom, and private access. This configuration lends itself well to multigenerational living, home office use, or spaces for guests and teenagers seeking privacy.

French doors on the lower level extend living onto a secluded deck and mature backyard, providing tranquil outdoor retreats. The sizable backyard, a rarity in this central locale, affords ample space for children, pets, and outdoor activities. Elevated decks offer various spots to enjoy the surrounding greenery.

Positioned for convenience, the property lies near vibrant cafes, shops, transport, parks, and the Brisbane River. The proximity to major institutions like Mater Hospital, QUT, South Bank, and the CBD enhances its appeal for professionals and families alike.

This home uniquely balances the intimacy of a heritage Queenslander with the versatility required for modern urban living, distinguished not only by its lifestyle advantages but also by the generous space it offers in the heart of Brisbane.
