This gracious Colonial with north-easterly views towards Moreton Bay sits proudly on an approximately 771sqm corner block in a quiet, tightly held pocket of Ascot, close to Brisbane’s CBD.

Dating to circa 1890, the engaging family home fuses understated sophistication and timeless appeal with the potential for dual living.

“2 Towers Street certainly represents the quintessential Ascot homestead with wide wrap around balconies, soaring high ceilings and vast manicured grounds,” Patrick McKinnon told LUXURY LIST. 

“There is over a century of history in this beautiful manor and we are now looking for a new owner who will continue to enjoy the residence for many years to come.”

Beyond the white picket fence, a traditional entry with a wrap-around veranda, ornate leadlight front door, and a double width hallway leads to elegant, timeless interiors featuring multiple formal and informal living areas.

Finished in neutral tones, period details include soaring pressed metal ceilings, impressive ‘full height’ VJ walls, wood burning fireplace, an abundance of French doors, and polished timber floors.

A central eat-in kitchen is fitted with Smeg appliances, smart storage options including a butler’s style pantry, and striking granite bench tops that provide ample preparation space. Additionally, it boasts a pristine United Metal Industries wood fire oven, which is not only functional but a distinctive feature with very few remaining today. 

Bi-fold doors open out to the rear north-east facing deck offering an outlook that stretches out towards Moreton Bay, providing an impressive backdrop to sit a while and relax or host gatherings with family and friends or watch the kids play in the pool.

Accommodation comprises six bedrooms, spread over the two levels. The master suite has a walk-in robe and ensuite bathroom, with the additional bedrooms share three distinctive bathrooms, two with ball and claw foot bathtubs.

The lower level is ideal for multi-generational families, growing teens, a home based business, or perfect to lease out with a separate entry. It features a billiard room with home theatre, two bedrooms, a kitchenette, and light filled bathroom. An office and climate-controlled wine cellar/ bar complete this level, and both open out to an undercover alfresco with direct access to the pool.

Additional features include fully fenced landscaped surrounds and intercom entry; water tank and under house dry storage with workshop; downstairs laundry with private drying area; and garage accommodation for 4 vehicles and auto entry gate.

The property is in close proximity to a wide range of amenities and many of Brisbane's finest schools, with the CBD only moments away and easy connections to the motorway.
