This sensational home from the past, has never before been put to market, designed and built by the original owner and then inherited by the current owner.
North-facing 1920’s character home built on 673m2 is in perfectly original condition epitomising this by-gone-era of leadlights, bay windows, fancy horsehair plaster ceilings and picture rails on the soaring VJ walls.
Found just 3km from the CBD in one of East Brisbane’s most sought after addresses Gresham Street, and just minutes’ walk to one of Brisbane’s GPS schools, Church of England Grammar School (Churchie).
You enter via the enclosed front verandah (now the foyer) into a small hallway with the main bedroom on the left and the formal lounge on the right.
The lounge that saw so many parties and sing-alongs from the past is highlighted by the leadlight glass doors of the dark-stained planter boxes that separate the lounge from the hall. The ornate ceilings of horse hair plaster are from an era when just covering the ceiling was not enough, it should be an art form to be admired. The frosted and leadlight windows enlighten the room as does the elaborate chandeliers.
The main bedroom is exquisite, with its key feature being the window seat beneath the leadlight bay window, perfect for lounging in the northern sun while sipping tea and reading the latest Mills & Boon.
Formal dining, Bedrooms 2 & 3 (9 & 10m2) are highlighted by frosted case windows, VJ’s and picture rails along the walls all adding to the character & ambience of this vintage home.
The bathroom is adequate as is the kitchen but both I expect will be targeted for renovation once the final plan is decided.
Stairs front and back and cement under house completes this much in demand home just waiting for someone to put their fingerprints all over it.
Will be sold by Public Auction on 25/05/2019 at 4.00pm on site.
