2 Bourne Street, Clayfield QLD 4011

It's our pleasure to introduce this classic character residence, a c1890 architecturally-designed home privately positioned on a level 1215sqm flood-free ridge with double-street frontage in prestigious Clayfield. Commanding attention for all the right reasons, glimpses of this glorious Queenslander through well-established hedging hint at its timeless beauty.

Beyond a white picket fence and surrounded by gardens offering an immersive nature experience, is a large single-level renovated family home with around 500sqm of living space. Three covered deep verandahs offer a multitude of superior entertaining options, one runs off the central kitchen with a built-in BBQ, seating and servery, while the other two are more traditional in appearance.

Not visible from the street is the wonderful convenience of a self-contained rear two-bedroom living area overlooking the swimming pool, which is the perfect fit for guests and adolescents. Indeed this space or the front two bedrooms can be sectioned off, as both have access to the exquisitely-appointed kitchen/casual dining and functional laundry. Also of appeal is a large study with separate front and side entrances, wrapped in windows to capture beautiful natural light and ideally set-up to suit a business/studio/hobby room.

The aforementioned kitchen is the heart of this lovely home, where an exposed brick chimney reflects charming origins while a suite of premium Miele, Qasair and ZIP appliances, and a Calacatta Oro marble benchtop, encourage even the most reluctant of chefs to roll up their sleeves. Nearby are grand living and dining rooms, with soaring ceilings, chandeliers, an original fireplace and bay window.

Relax by the heated swimming pool, watch the fish meander in the ponds and hear only the birds. Despite being mere minutes from the CBD, M1 access to coastal destinations, cafes, shops, private schools and the train, there is a striking omission of urban noise. In a tightly held street, which is testament to the appeal of the area, this secluded private oasis captures deserved attention.
