THE DETAILS

Boasting stunning panoramic city and urban views from the peak of Windsor Hill, coupled with extraordinary architecture and a vibrant history, this is a very rare and unique investment opportunity.

The land was originally owned by Brisbane’s First Lord Mayor William Jolly, with the home being built in 1930 by the next owner, a local hotelier and his family. This is unquestionably one of Brisbane’s most iconic estates, of historical importance and as a significant specimen of Georgian-revival 1930s architecture. This beautiful home displays a rich tapestry of style, ambience and unique family lifestyle seldom offered in the Brisbane market.

The huge home, consisting of 474 square metres of internal space plus outdoor entertaining areas, is prominently set amid 2,460 square metres of private, manicured and secure grounds.

Stately formal rooms are combined with striking architectural elements throughout. Multiple living spaces of generous proportions have been styled in accordance with the period, combining rich timber panelling, soaring decorative ceilings, original lead lighting with Jarrah and Crow’s Ash timber flooring.

A modern kitchen, positioned centrally for ease of access to both the formal and informal dining areas, comprises stone benches, ample storage space and a range of stainless steel appliances. This gourmet space will easily accommodate everything from quiet family meals to entertaining on any scale.

Four charming bedrooms are comfortably positioned over one level, allowing flexibility to accommodate growing families, or quiet rooms for enjoying hobbies or accommodating guests. The extravagant master bedroom does not disappoint, with a private ensuite, detailed ceilings and beautiful, sunny bay window.

The home is filled with delightful nooks around every other corner, perfect to steal away for a quiet moment with a great book, or let your mind wander! The ceilings are intricate artistic displays of ornate plasterwork with period pendants and chandeliers accenting them perfectly. The windows too, are an artform in themselves, embellishing every room and framing the extraordinary views.

The lower floor includes a home office and oversized rumpus room, opening onto a vast tiled terrace leading to an inviting pool and pergola, perfect for basking in the Queensland sun. Overlooking 180 degrees of Brisbane’s most impressive views, encompassing the rolling landscape, twinkling city skyline and beyond, this entertainment area potentially boasts one of Brisbane’s most spectacular backdrops.
