Elevated Dreamy Hendra Queenslander - Three Street Frontage.
A residence of quintessential character, refined elegance and timeless charm, this architectural twist on a Queenslander showcases a captivating street presence atop 810sqm, not to mention three Street frontage (Derby, Bowman, Beirne).
This beautiful home has been in the current family for almost 25 years, and as you can imagine, it has provided the perfect environment to raise a loving family.
The previous owner was a keen photographer, who shifted and raised the original home into its current position you see today, still in its original position is the 'darkroom' they used to edit all their photos & film, with intact exhaust and safety light situated outside above the entrance. The architect used to do this renovation blended the traditional Queenslander era with modern flare and zest, note raised ceilings, terracotta tiling, large windows/louvres to let in natural light and air flow, and a centre staircase showcasing storage and treasured possessions. Time and thought was invested here, with all ground level bedrooms boasting massive walk in wardrobes as an example.
With a 20m frontage, and on two separate lots, this commanding residence sits high atop three prominent Hendra Street's. From the vantage point of the North/East wrap around balcony, you can enjoy expanding views across Hendra and out towards Moreton Bay, the breezes are absolutely refreshing. 46 Derby Street offers an ideal lifestyle location, less than 5km from the Brisbane CBD, and moments to the Brisbane airport.
A haven for families seeking period detail, expansive interiors and separation of space, the home hosts five generous bedrooms, two bathrooms, two car accommodation, effortlessly accommodating dual living, and an extensive backyard and in ground pool.
Greeting you with a beautiful white picket fence and traditional wraparound verandah/balcony, the home's upper level reveals stunning timber floors, VJ walls, French doors and 3.2m ceilings upstairs (2.9m downstairs).
