Seamlessly combining heritage grandeur with contemporary luxury, this beautifully restored six-bedroom property sits amidst a pocket of Victorian-era homes in the prestigious Brisbane enclave of New Farm.

The residence was originally built in 1895 by architect Claude William Chambers for railway contractor George Charles Willcocks, with a tasteful update by Chapman Builders to suit modern lifestyles.

Behind the magnificent lattice-adorned façade, wide front verandah, and manicured front gardens, interiors feature polished timber floors, French doors, marble fireplaces, stained-glass windows, and 13-foot ceilings.

“Unusual for Brisbane, the home is built in stone, but there are so many things that are attractive about this property,” Heath Williams told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND. 

“It retains many original attributes including super high ceilings, working sash windows containing the original glass, ornate wrought iron lacework and decorative plaster mouldings and timber fretwork.”

“When most blocks in the area are around 450sqm, this home is situated on a 732sqm (approx) corner allotment, enjoying city glimpses while the side windows guarantee additional light to the interior,” Heath explained. 

The upper level boasts a spacious open plan living and dining area, perfect for entertaining guests. Additionally, there is a formal dining room and a connecting rear balcony, providing a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living spaces. The immaculate adjoining kitchen features a breakfast bar, quality appliances, a tiled splashback, and ample cupboard storage.

Downstairs, you'll find a generous rumpus room, a multi-purpose area, a functional office, and a separate study, offering versatile spaces to suit various needs. 

The fully fenced, flat, grassed rear yard features low-maintenance irrigated gardens, a heated in-ground saltwater swimming pool, a covered patio, and an outdoor shower.

The sleeping quarters include a sizeable master bedroom, a well-appointed marble main bathroom, and four additional bedrooms. The master bedroom and three others are fitted with built-in robes, while two main bedrooms also feature fireplaces. Another full bathroom/laundry and a large sixth bedroom with a built-in robe completes the lower level.

Located just a stone's throw away from New Farm Park and its ferry terminal, the James Street, Howard Smith Wharves, and Teneriffe precincts are within close proximity, while Brisbane's CBD is around three kilometres away.
