Commanding a wide 21-metre frontage in an elevated, leafy pocket moments from the river, this century-old Queenslander offers a quietly sophisticated way of living. Verandahs trace the façade, while mountain silhouettes and the city skyline punctuate the horizon, and north-easterly breezes filter through 3.3-metre ceilings and VJ walls. The 594sqm setting is private yet wonderfully connected to everyday amenities.
Entry is at street level to the upper floor, where day-to-day life unfolds with ease. The lounge draws the eye beyond the treetops to Mt Coot-tha and opens via French doors to a covered north-facing wraparound verandah that also connects with the kitchen and dining. From the kitchen and dining area, a second sheltered balcony extends as an intimate outdoor haven, offering an additional year-round setting for entertaining or quiet retreat.
The kitchen blends warmth with practicality. Long stone benchtops provide generous preparation space beside a freestanding gas stove and a sink beneath a picture window enjoys leafy northerly outlooks. Abundant storage, together with direct connection to dining and both balconies, ensures easy flow for everyday meals and larger gatherings.
Accommodation is thoughtful and flexible. Three built-in bedrooms occupy the main living level, anchored by a generous master with a light-filled ensuite featuring a claw-foot bath and separate shower. The remaining bedrooms are serviced by a family bathroom. Near the kitchen, internal stairs lead to a built-in lower level comprising two additional bedrooms, a generous second living room and a third bathroom. Tiled underfoot, air-conditioned and naturally cool through summer, this space is ideal for teenagers, long-stay guests or multigenerational living.
Outdoors, the home becomes a private garden escape. Layered timber decks flow to a salt-water plunge swimming pool, edged by established greenery and built-in seating. The grounds are fully fenced and intentionally low maintenance, leaving weekends free for relaxation. Practical comforts include NBN fibre, gas hot water, a separate upper-level laundry, expansive secure under croft storage and a two-car carport.
The position is pure lifestyle. Riverside paths and the Sherwood Arboretum are moments away, with Francis Lookout a charming local landmark. Graceville and Sherwood villages offer cafés, cinema, restaurants and everyday shopping; Corinda and Sherwood train stations provide an effortless city commute. St Aidan's Anglican Girls' School and St Joseph's Primary are within reach, and Indooroopilly Shopping Centre is a short drive for major retail.
