Sprawled across 2 lots of over 810sqm with a pool and fabulous outdoor entertaining, this Taringa home enjoys views across to Mt Coot-Tha and the Brisbane CBD.  

Built around 1916, the Queenslander’s original owner chose the premium options available during its construction, including distinct designs of pressed metal to accentuate the high ceilings, ebony door handles commissioned and imported from England, leadlight windows and doors, VJ’s, and a wide wraparound verandah.

A recent major reno has brought the home into the 21st century, Marianne Hewitt told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.  

“Also known as ‘Wandin’, the five-bedroom, three-bathroom home has had a huge renovation to update the century-old house into a modernised Queenslander,” she explained. 

“The current owners lovingly completed an extensive renovation of the entire residence, taking into consideration some of the original decorative features while tastefully transforming ‘Wandin’ to a modern, technologically smart home of grand proportions.”

Architecturally designed by award winning DAH.A and built by Blue Chip Concepts, the updated home features spacious living across two levels, with the lower level providing a fully self-contained 2-bedroom apartment, perfect for multigenerational living, teenager’s retreat, or an additional income source.

The upper level leads through to a north-facing balcony with a built-in outdoor cooking station with gas-plumbed Beef Eater BBQ, fridge, ceiling fan, overlooking the backyard’s pool and outdoor entertaining space. Ideal for parties, this area incorporates a sparkling saltwater pool and features an expansive gazebo with Kegerator bar, big screen TV, built-in bench seating, LED strip and string lighting, integrated sound system and low maintenance turf.
