Gracefully positioned along one of Brighton's most tightly held waterfront addresses, Amavon is a home of rare provenance, scale, and outlook. Originally built circa 1938 and lovingly held by the same family for over 60 years, this iconic Queenslander stands as a quiet custodian of the bayside's past while offering remarkable flexibility for the future.
Set on a 612 m² parcel with an exceptional dual frontage of approximately 10 m to Flinders Parade and 30 m to Twenty Fifth Avenue, the home enjoys a presence and landholding seldom seen along the foreshore. One of only two residences directly opposite Decker Park, the outlook is permanently protected, delivering uninterrupted coastal views and a sense of openness that is increasingly rare.
The elevated main residence captures sweeping panoramic vistas across Moreton Bay, stretching past the Hornibrook Bridge and out toward the Port of Brisbane. By day, the bay glistens with changing light and passing boats. By night, the distant port comes alive with soft, flickering lights that shimmer across the water, creating an unforgettable coastal backdrop.
Offering four bedrooms and two bathrooms, the home is uniquely versatile with three kitchens in total, including a fully self contained residence beneath the main home. This configuration provides outstanding flexibility for extended family living, guests, or independent accommodation. A substantial extension added in 1995 expanded the original footprint while respecting the scale and character of the home.
Importantly, Amavon also presents a rare opportunity for those with vision. The rear portion of the home can be reimagined, removed, or rebuilt, allowing for contemporary enhancement without compromising the charm, elevation, or historic presence of the original Queenslander façade. It is a home that invites both preservation and thoughtful evolution.

What the current owners love…
We've loved the sense of peace this home offers it truly feels like stepping into another world. With the beach and Decker Park right at our doorstep, coming home has always felt calm and grounding. Watching the area grow over the years while the home remained a place of comfort has been really special. This has always been a home made for family. From everyday moments to birthdays, Christmases and sleepovers at Grandma's, it has welcomed generations with ease. Quiet weekdays bring walkers and joggers past the front, while weekends see families enjoying the park and sea breeze. We've been so blessed to live here and hope the next owners love life at Amavon as much as we have.
Lifestyle…
Life at Amavon is defined by its uninterrupted connection to the bay. Mornings begin with foreshore walks directly across the road, sea breezes drifting through the home, and expansive water views that stretch as far as the eye can see. Days flow easily between the cafés of Brighton and Sandgate, while afternoons invite time by the water or in the park opposite. As evening falls, the sun sets behind the Hornibrook bridges and the distant lights of the Port of Brisbane flicker across the bay, a daily reminder of just how special this position truly is.
Amavon is more than a residence. It is a landmark home defined by history, outlook, and possibility. A beloved home by the sea, ready to begin its next chapter in one of Brighton's most irreplaceable waterfront locations.
