Constructed in 1928, 'Uanda' is a piece of Brisbane history. Brimming with charm and designed by Nellie McCredie, Queensland's first female architect, the homestead is the last remaining example of her work and is heritage listed.
Retaining its traditional facade, entryway and four generous bedrooms, the home has been updated with a modern extension and picturesque grounds to seamlessly fuse heritage character with modern family living.
Resting upon an elevated 810sqm allotment with the perfect north-south aspect enjoying cooling breezes and suburban views, the property offers an exclusive lifestyle in Wilston's esteemed avenues.
Beautifully presented behind manicured hedges, the home flows from the entry deck into the original cottage showcasing period timber floors, decorative cornices, plasterwork ceilings, sash windows and a leadlight front door.
Leading through French doors into the modern extension, the upper level reveals a free-flowing lounge and dining area. Adorned with timber flooring, large windows and bi-fold doors, this living space adjoins the central kitchen and opens with ease onto the rear deck providing a private retreat allowing for effortless indoor/outdoor entertaining.
Presenting further living and entertaining space, a ground floor rumpus leads out to a covered alfresco patio with concealed BBQ area, sunlit terrace with firepit, manicured yard with landscaped gardens and a sparkling solar-heated swimming pool.
