Perched on one of Paddington’s most elevated and prestigious streets, 29 Garfield Drive boasts a commanding 30-metre frontage and uninterrupted 210-degree views from multiple levels, stretching from Brisbane City to Mt Coot-tha. Cleverly designed across three levels, this home maximises its outlook with light-filled interiors, generous proportions, and seamless indoor-outdoor living.
From the entry, the sweeping panorama draws you in, flowing through the main living areas to a central indoor-outdoor deck—the heart of the home—providing a spacious, all-weather setting for year-round entertaining.
The upper level positions the kitchen to capture the breathtaking outlook, complete with an island bench, modern appliances, and ample storage. Adjacent, the master suite shares the same views and features custom cabinetry and a generous ensuite.
With five bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, a study, and multiple living zones, the layout adapts to families of all sizes. Outdoors, a saltwater pool framed by tropical landscaping, a tiled deck, and a second alfresco area with a feature fountain create ideal spaces for relaxation and entertaining.
For future rebuild potential, the existing groundwork eliminates the challenges and costs of demolishing lower levels or building on a slope—an exceptional advantage on such a prized site.
The simplest path to rebuilding would be:
1. Demolish the existing top level.
2. Construct a new two-storey home (plus rooftop terrace) on top of the existing concrete structure.
3. Repurpose the bottom two levels as gym space, storage, or other uses.
This setup allows for a modern rebuild without starting from scratch.
Additional storage is another highlight, with two oversized storerooms located beside the double lock-up garage. The block itself is low-maintenance and framed by established trees and shrubs, offering both privacy and greenery.
Positioned within walking distance to Latrobe Terrace and just minutes from Paddington Central, cafés, restaurants, and boutique shops, this home presents a rare opportunity to secure a thoughtfully designed residence in a tightly held, elevated location—combining lifestyle, privacy, and sweeping city views.
