Happy Birthday Glengarrie!!

A truly remarkable centurion sitting proudly on a level 1019 m2 parcel of land on top of Northgate Hill where once pineapple farms and flower nurseries graced the hill. This glamorous old girl displays a hint of sophistication with a touch of grandeur blended with a contagious mixture of new and old. Built in 1915, loved and beautifully maintained over the past century. This sprawling character home is an icon and testament to the early settlement period of the area.

The present owner has penned some thoughts about “Glengarrie".
"This is what I will miss about “Glengarrie”... my remarkable home for the past 12 years. Much needed space, privacy and comfort replicating to some extent the charm of the country after growing up on a farm with hectares of land."

"Transport .. Trains.. Frequent, efficient service to the City (8stops) plus the convenience of buses. Walk to our local coffee shop Rhino's. Drive to Brisbane Airport, DFO and the Gateway Arterial. Missing the wonderful families of Northgate. It's a very caring neighbourhood for each other, our children and our pets."
