Within an elevated Teneriffe Hill dress-circle enclave, designed by renowned, award-winning architect Shaun Lockyer and beautifully landscaped by Steven Clegg Design, is this contemporary conversion of an original 1930s worker's cottage. Reimagined as a luxury inner-city residence for modern family living, the home was featured in Brisbane News' top 10 houses, as selected by its architectural editors.
Retaining its character frontage and full-width verandah, the home features a contemporary rear extension with generous proportions, distinctive architectural lines and soaring cathedral ceilings, in a design that maximises comfort, privacy, security, natural light and expansive city views. A deliberate sightline of more than 35 metres extends from the front verandah through to the rear swimming pool, while light corridors and purposeful voids create a sense of space throughout.
Beyond a security-controlled front gate, a teak-framed entry with floor-to-ceiling glass opens to the central living level, where an open-plan interior flows seamlessly between the rear pool and BBQ entertaining, kitchen, main living and dining areas, and front verandah with Story Bridge and CBD views. A long stone benchtop is a feature of the Miele-equipped kitchen, providing a striking contrast with the warmth of premium Mafi timber flooring.
Upstairs, an expansive additional living area, with the option to convert into a fourth bedroom, and a dedicated study enjoy a memorable Brisbane outlook through a large hydraulic window. The primary suite occupies its own secluded wing on this level, separated by a void, with a walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite featuring stone finishes and floor-to-ceiling tiling.
Low-maintenance landscaping complements the home's architecture and outdoor entertaining spaces. While there is a secure double garage, this is one address where a car is not essential.
James Street, Gasworks, Merthyr Village and New Farm Park are all within walking distance, as are bus and CityCat services to the CBD and West End. Excellent schools, including All Hallows', Brisbane Grammar, Brisbane Girls Grammar and Churchie, are also easily accessible.
