16 Hillside Crescent, Hamilton QLD 4007

Reflecting Brisbane's aristocratic society of the late 1800's "Marie Ville" is one of the last pristine inner city estates available in one of the city's most prestigious suburbs.

Elevated high upon Hamilton Hill, "Marie Ville" (also known as Eltham) is a remarkable Victorian Filigree masterpiece, a stunning private estate, filled with charm, character, and prestige. Perched elegantly on a sprawling 1,970sqm block of immaculately manicured established formal garden, this beautiful residence commands a massive 41.5m frontage and captures the very best Brisbane City and River views.

The late 1880's Victorian Villa, was originally built for Kate Quinlan, a founder of Castlemaine Brewery, a position handpicked at the time, as one of Brisbane's most elite residential suburbs, where many fine homes were built overlooking the Brisbane river. It was designed by the very notable Brisbane architectural firm John Hall and Son. Many details of the home were brought out from England in ships.

The lacework and its columns that surrounds the substantial verandas show three flowers emerging from an urn, truly beautiful in its appearance. There are also the original lead lights that surrounds the entry door and other. The solid doors, sash windows, architraves, twelve-inch skirting boards are all of cedar wood, and the ceiling cornices feature cupids. There are chandeliers and numerous brass lights throughout. With four fireplaces, three surrounded by the original marble, and servant bells retained in some of its rooms, make it a truly exceptional home.
