Discerning designers will appreciate the attention to detail invested in the recently completed (late 2024) renovation of this century-old cottage positioned in one of Brisbane's most significant locations. Welcoming entertaining spaces, contemporary amenities and charming traditional features are the cornerstones of what is a glamorous inner-city property intertwined in the origins of historic Spring Hill.
Nestled within the coveted St Joseph's College, Gregory Terrace precinct, this residence is similar in style to neighbouring pre-1911 homes yet a recent major renovation, inclusive of the kitchen, bathroom, flooring, and landscaping, has elevated it to new heights as one of the area's finest.
Beyond a white picket fence is a luxurious urban escape of original three-metre-high ceilings, VJ panelling, and ornate archways in a hallway running the depth of the layout through to the most glorious of sun-drenched Accoya timber decks. This professionally landscaped space, created by Trimscapes, features built-in brick seating, and a benchtop shielding a wine fridge and storage cabinets with the option for a gas BBQ or pizza oven.
Servicing this private outdoor sanctuary is a kitchen showcasing 2pac shaker-style cabinetry with Blum soft-close hinges, Smartstone benchtops, a Shaws fireclay classic butler's sink, Brodware brass tapware, and integrated Fisher & Paykel appliances. Where the pitched roof above meets a wall of black French doors is a sublime work of designer craft.
There's also a separate air-conditioned lounge, three bedrooms all with built-in storage, and a family bathroom with tumbled marble floor tiles, Brodware chrome tapware, and a custom vanity. Other notable features include European oak and Sisal carpet flooring.
