Positioned only five kilometres from Brisbane’s CBD, the 1895 residence has been fully restored by architect Bruce Medek. For sale by Sarah Hackett of Place Bulimba.
Only five kilometres from Brisbane’s CBD, this restored Queenslander boasts phenomenal views of the Brisbane River, New Farm Park and the iconic city skyline.
Source: Place BulimbaThe two-level residence was fully restored in 2002 by renowned architect Bruce Medek, who transformed the original 1895 Queenslander with modern design, melding the two eras in a fully customised renovation.
Despite being positioned on a central city-bound road, the residence feels tranquil and exclusive. Set away from Wynnum Road and presented with manicured gardens crafted by Two Leos Landscaping and Design, the home balances a peaceful atmosphere with proximity to Brisbane’s CBD.

“Lovely spaces increase the sense of pleasure living in the home. It is a very quiet house, you don't hear the road - it is very lovely and serene.”
