'Aurora' is a beautifully renovated double-storey Queenslander on Paddington's Enoggera Terrace with captivating Brisbane city views.

Agent Tyson Clarke of Queensland Sotheby’s International Realty told WILLIAMS MEDIA, “This property has some of the best and closest city views in Brisbane. There are city views from both levels, as well as a self cleaning infinity edge pool, huge entertaining room, and off street parking for 4 cars. This is a true to style icon of the area.”

“The original home was built in the 1890s and, when the owner purchased in 1998, had been left derelict for 5 years. He saw the potential of the property, bought it, and embarked on a 5-year extensive renovation using only the best trades people. The attention to detail is phenomenal and for anyone coming to view the property they can look through the photo album of all the works that happened.” 

Returned to its former glory by esteemed architectural practice AAD Design, this residence is a merger of traditional features and contemporary style.

Fresh interior and exterior paintwork in a Hamptons colour palette of whites and soft greys contrasts with the richness of the original polished timber floors.

Entertain guests on the wide rear veranda or in the open-plan living and lounge area, as the bright lights of the city twinkle in the background. 

Three of the four bedrooms are located on the upper-level, including the master bedroom with access to the veranda and those unforgettable views, a walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite.

The lower-level lounge room with a wet bar is an extra entertaining space, adjoined by a guest bedroom, bathroom, office and storage room/wine cellar.

The sloping block was converted into an award-winning outdoor area by A&R Evergreen landscapers (currently rebranding to Everscapes, with website under construction). 

According to the landscaper, this project was a complex exercise on one of the steepest streets in Brisbane.  “Our design transforms what was otherwise an unusual sloped backyard into a level functional space with the use of considered retaining. The overall design aimed to maximise the stunning city views for year-round entertaining; Featuring a custom moulded fire place, cantilevered shade structure and travertine slab bench seat, a balanced use of natural materials and a classical style of planting complimenting the traditional Queensland residence. We spent considerable time on every detail of the design from the fire pit down to the exterior lighting.”

It is a garden worthy of the recognition it's received, which includes winning the Design and Construct category in the Landscape Queensland Construction Excellence Awards 2016. 

'Aurora' is only 2km to Brisbane's CBD and a short walk to the popular Botanica Real Food, Plum Tucker café, Clovely Estate City Cellar Door and the bustling Latrobe Terrace retail precinct.

Highly-regarded schools in the vicinity of Enoggera Terrace include St Finbarr's School, St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, Brisbane Grammar School and St Joseph's College.
