The four-level property was designed in 1989 by Don Watson, winner of the Robin Boyd National Architectural Award, and expertly redesigned by renowned architect Shaun Lockyer.

Speaking to WILLIAMS MEDIA, Shaun Lockyer described the home as an iconic piece of work in Brisbane’s architectural landscape, defined by its brick and timber detailing.

“We were privileged (and challenged) to carry out works to the home in order to recalibrate the spatial planning to transform the house into one that represents a considered balance of historic detail and contemporary lifestyle aspirations.”

The generously proportioned home takes in riverfront views from almost every room, while exquisite details such as lofty slanted ceilings and banks of full-height glass bring the outdoors in.

Ideal for a large family, the home has multiple breakaway spaces where everyone can enjoy their own private space, including an opulent parents’ retreat with an attached terrace, generous downstairs family room and adjoining bar area, and functional office with balcony.

Outside, there is an expansive grassed rear yard, established gardens, a massive terrace, an al fresco terrace and a magnificent in-ground swimming pool with an infinity edge and breathtaking river views. A private boathouse offers direct access to the river.

“Space is the biggest factor driving the property market amid Covid and lockdowns,” Heath Williams told WILLIAMS MEDIA. “Over the last ten years, design has focused on large, open plan areas, but with lockdown and working from home, everyone is finding they need their own space.”

“This home has it all. Large areas where everyone can get congregate to enjoy time together and multiple private areas to work, study and play without disturbing the rest of the household.”

“Graceville is a peaceful and picturesque suburb where residents take pride in their homes. The gardens and footpaths are leafy and manicured, with an elegant mix of architecture showcasing multiple timeframes in design.”

“The suburb is dominated by families and close to some of Brisbane’s best private schools. It has a great lifestyle precinct, with lots of cafes and restaurants, excellent parks including Sherwood Arboretum, and is close to Indooroopilly shopping town.”

“With good size blocks and easy access to the CBD, the market in this area will continue to increase.”
