Effortlessly balancing heritage grandeur with modern luxury, this character Fortitude Valley home looks out to the iconic city skyline from a location just two kilometres from the heart of Brisbane’s CBD.

Positioned on approx. 698sqm, the 1900s-built property with a studio offers an original Donovan Hill renovation within walking distance of the Calile Hotel and all the restaurants and shops of James Street.

Speaking to LUXURY LIST WEEKEND, Heath Williams said the size of the land is one of the appealing elements of the property.

“The land size is very large for the area and relatively flat,” Heath explained. 

“The original house has not been altered from its original intention, and it remains a gracious home that respects the original nature of the property. There is also potential to add another level with city views.”

The home’s traditional façade is punctuated by a full-width verandah and ornate fretwork, as well as manicured front gardens and an elegant, gated entrance.

Heritage details continue inside with exquisite timber floors, lofty ceilings, VJ walls, plantation shutters, decorative breezeways and stained-glass windows.

The single storey layout features a spacious open-plan living and dining area with fireplace and plenty of natural light, while the modern kitchen displays a breakfast bar, stainless-steel benchtops, quality appliances, a butler’s pantry and ample cupboard storage.

At the rear, the generous covered deck boasts built-in bench seating, looking out to the fully-fenced grassed rear yard, landscaped gardens and an above-ground swimming pool.

There are three sizeable bedrooms encompassing built-in robes, plus a well-appointed main bathroom and the property also benefits from a large studio with garden views that can also serve as an office or study.

Just two kilometres from the heart of Brisbane’s CBD, the property is also close to boutiques, restaurants, cafes and cultural attractions. The popular Gasworks, Teneriffe and Howard Smith Wharves precincts are also nearby, as are a number of city-bound bus stops and cherished riverwalks. Leafy New Farm Park, the Teneriffe Ferry Terminal and the Fortitude Valley train station are also easily accessible from this address.
