Positioned proudly behind a white picket fence and surrounded by lush lawns and established gardens, this enchanting circa 1927 gabled Queenslander immediately captures the heart. With its welcoming front veranda, timeless facade and elevated 810sqm allotment on the high side, the home’s charm is undeniable.
Offered for the first time in 27 years, this much-loved residence has been thoughtfully updated over time, blending modern comforts with the enduring character and craftsmanship of a bygone era. The result is a home of remarkable warmth, personality and liveability that will delight its fortunate new owners.
Steeped in traditional charm, the interiors showcase all the hallmark Queenslander features — soaring ceilings, VJ walls, decorative breezeways, intricate fretwork, leadlight doors, French doors, casement windows and polished hoop pine floors. Every detail has been beautifully preserved, creating a home that is both rich in history and perfectly attuned to modern family living.
The front verandah, with its inviting charm, opens into a wide hallway that introduces a series of elegant living spaces. To one side, formal living and dining rooms set the tone for refined entertaining, while opposite, two generous bedrooms flow to a versatile sleepout or study. A beautifully renovated main bathroom sits centrally, showcasing timeless finishes and thoughtful design.
At the heart of the home, the open-plan country-style kitchen is both functional and inviting. It features an island bench ideal for family gatherings, a wide Smeg stainless steel oven with matching custom rangehood, and an integrated Smeg dishwasher. This space seamlessly connects to the breakfast and family rooms and opens onto a private covered deck, perfectly positioned to capture cooling breezes, an ideal setting for relaxed entertaining or quiet moments of retreat.
A rear hallway lined with storage leads to another bedroom and the private main suite, complete with built-in robes and an elegant ensuite. Downstairs, a fifth bedroom with its own ensuite offers versatility for teenagers, guests, or multi-generational living, with French doors opening directly to the garden and a private external entrance.
The lower level also accommodates generous storage, workshop and hobby areas, a laundry, and secure parking for up to four vehicles in tandem. The fully fenced, child and pet-friendly yard provide space for outdoor play or the option to add a swimming pool if desired.
This home is a shining example of the enduring appeal of Brisbane’s character architecture. Loved for their versatility, natural ventilation and connection to the outdoors, these iconic Queenslanders remain timeless family sanctuaries.
Situated in one of Graceville’s most sought-after streets, this property offers the perfect balance of heritage charm and modern convenience. The Honour Avenue cafe and dining precinct, boutique shops, cinema, and public transport are just a short stroll away. Prestigious schools including St Aidan’s Anglican Girls’ School and the University of Queensland are easily accessible, as are leafy parklands, sporting clubs and recreational amenities.
A truly special residence in an exceptional location, this is Queenslander living at its finest.
