A significant Hawthorne estate, rich in history and cherished by its owners, who have been the proud custodians of this character Queenslander property for more than 37 years. Few inner-city residences on the market occupy more than 930sq m while offering such immense potential to renovate into a landmark family home.
Located on a premium street, within walking distance to the Hawthorne ferry terminal, Hawthorne Park, and Hawthorne Road cafes, shops and cinemas, this 930sq m opportunity is intrinsically linked to the area through its 19th-century origins. With a wide street frontage and stately facade, it has long been a prominent local icon.
For all the charm and aesthetic appeal, there is also substantial value to be secured through improvements. Currently, the double-storey layout features expansive living and dining areas with a fireplace, large bedrooms, including a private master with an ensuite, and an enormous dine-in kitchen opening onto a rear timber deck overlooking the swimming pool and immaculate established gardens.
The lower level is of a similar scale, with a flexible design comprising a rumpus room with a bar, guest rooms, a family bathroom and a laundry, as well as separate access points at both the front and rear. There is relaxed poolside entertaining, and a carport located next to the gardens.
A blue-chip riverside precinct lifestyle awaits, with its wonderful village-like experiences and enviable proximity to Brisbane's CBD. Desirable private schools, including Churchie and Lourdes Hill College, are only minutes away, as are Oxford Street and multiple city-bound transport options.
