Be in by Christmas.
Baddow House, 1883. Heritage-listed, with a two-year restoration, riverfront, and set on almost two acres above the Mary River in Maryborough. Picture garlands on the cedar staircase, six fireplaces dressed for the season, an illuminated tree beneath 5-metre ceilings, and candlelit dinners in the formal dining room. Few homes in Australia are so well suited to a traditional Christmas while staying cool with triple-brick insulation.
A Home for Generations.
Baddow House is a prominent Georgian-style residence listed on the National Trust of Queensland and the Queensland Heritage Register, restored to its former grandeur. Categorised as a mansion, it has approximately 910 sqm under roof, with formal and informal living rooms and five bedrooms. It serves as a private residence and also has potential as a venue for tourism, weddings, or boutique accommodation (STCA).
Wide verandahs wrap around both levels. Inside, the interiors feature original cypress and hoop pine floors, solid cedar doors, a cedar staircase, restored decorative detail, and glistening chandeliers. Stately rooms include grand-proportioned drawing rooms, a family-style kitchen, a library and office, and a separate garden studio. Neighbouring Baddow House are 74 acres of heritage-listed Crown parkland, so Baddow House feels worlds apart.
The gated grounds have curated gardens, brick pathways, vine-covered arbours, a water-lily canal pond, jacarandas, poincianas and rolling lawns. Since 2000, it has had only two owners, and it now awaits its third.
