This historic home, with stunning Brisbane city views, has been transformed for modern family living. For sale by Cathy Richards and Sarah Hackett of Place Bulimba.
Nestled in the inner eastern suburbs of Brisbane sits The Riverbank, an elegant heritage residence dating back to 1886.
Today, the home has been sensitively transformed to a modern family abode while still embracing its Victorian era architectural history.
Featuring details from a bygone era, the home’s grand entry showcases a Victorian era staircase, custom-designed and built by Slattery and Acquroff.
The family / media room and master bedroom with elegant marble ensuite are located on this level adjoining a rear patio area. Two double bedrooms enjoy a private sandstone courtyard and a shared marble ensuite featuring restored Victorian claw-foot bath tub. A purpose-designed home office (or sixth bedroom) is located at front of house.
Upstairs is the home’s main family living zone, with open plan formal living and dining, kitchen and breakfast room and two additional bedrooms. An expansive upper entertaining deck takes in stunning city views.
Although the 94 acre market garden of late 19th century Bulimba is no longer, the approx. 810sqm block has been fully landscaped, with mature trees and picturesque sandstone garden walls and pathways throughout. Families will delight in the secret garden with its own fire pit, water feature and greenhouse, and of course the in-ground saltwater swimming pool.
Perfectly located, The Riverbank is just three minutes' walk from riverside parks and the CityCat.
