This circa 1910 Queenslander on an approx. 810sqm Ascot allotment has been sold by Christine Rudolph of Ray White New Farm following 30 days on the market.

The transformed, two-level property is set among landscaped gardens, with a wide, private frontage maximising its north easterly aspect.

Speaking to LUXURY LIST WEEKEND Christine Rudolph said there were 120 in-person inspections prior to the sale.

“9 Sword is a stunning example of grand colonial architecture in one of Ascot's most prestigious treelined streets,” Christine explained.

“There was tremendous interest in the property which had undergone a magnificent renovation in consultation with respected interior designers Wrightson Stewart, the main bathroom in particular a magnificent combination of customised cabinetry in navy blue with gold accessories and marble throughout.”

“The kitchen had also been crafted by award winning cabinmakers Wyer and Craw in a timeless shaker style with marble benchtops. The owners commissioned award winning landscape architect Wrightson Stewart to create spectacular gardens. They enjoy nature and designed a garden to encourage birds and wildlife including native bees which they enjoy breeding. It also provided the dual benefit of another outdoor room with seating and firepit as well as a delightful organic herb garden and citrus orchard.”

The home was sold for $3.7m which is one of the highest sales to date in Ascot this year.

“The buyers were empty nesters who had tried apartment living but missed size and space as well as a garden. They love having their grandchildren to stay and this was the perfect home, accommodating size, space and security.”

Christine told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND she is extremely confident winter will remain strong for Brisbane.

“What we take for granted in Brisbane is envied by the rest of the country and indeed world, and the proof is in the continued climb in Brisbane house prices.”

“Property analysts PropTrack released May figures showing Brisbane price growth has continued 5 months in a row. The 4007 postcode last year recorded a massive 35% price increase which was one of the leading suburb performers. While growth has stabilized this year, demand remains high, particularly for homes which are renovated, driven by a shortage of builders and shortage of materials,” she explained.

“Ascot in particular is high on buyers’ wish list for the gracious treelined streets, beautiful architecture and quality schools. We are extremely confident winter will remain strong for Brisbane by a steady migration of 1,000 southerners a week chasing the sunshine and expat's planning their mid-year return home.”
