'Varrowville' is part of the fabric of New Farm. Occupying 436sqm with a 15m frontage directly opposite New Farm Park, this triple-gabled pre-war Queenslander pairs an exceptional inner-city address with the enduring beauty and craftsmanship of its era. VJ walls, timber floors, picture rails, decorative fretwork and coloured glazing speak to its heritage, while the home's substantial footprint and scope for renovation invite an exciting future.
A manicured gated garden and water fountain introduce the home with privacy, before ascending to the broad wraparound verandah. Inside, semi-open plan living and dining rooms enjoy a north-east aspect, framed by battened-style ceilings, timber detailing and beautiful period features. French doors open to the covered verandah, providing a wonderfully private setting for family time, entertaining or simply enjoying the outlook. Casement windows and broad openings allow the space to be opened or enclosed as desired, while established treetops frame views directly across New Farm Park.
Connecting naturally with the dining room, the kitchen is spacious and practical, with stone benchtops, extensive cabinetry, a gas cooktop, electric oven, dishwasher and double sink. A window above the benchtop draws in natural light and greenery, adding another leafy outlook to the interior.
Three bedrooms are arranged with excellent separation. The master offers a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, with French doors opening directly to a private verandah retreat enclosed by casement windows. Two additional bedrooms, one with a built-in wardrobe, share the large main bathroom and separate toilet.
Practicality extends beneath the home, where approximately 164sqm provides exceptional space for parking, storage and the separate laundry. Ducted air-conditioning and ceiling fans add year-round comfort, while outside, established gardens, a vegetable garden and side access make further use of the 15m-wide allotment.
Sydney Street places some of New Farm's best-loved outdoor spaces and amenities within immediate reach. New Farm Park is quite literally across the road, with its expansive grounds, tennis courts, nearby lawn bowls and weekend markets forming part of everyday life. The Riverwalk, Brisbane Powerhouse, New Farm Park Ferry and bus services are an easy stroll away, while Merthyr Village, Howard Smith Wharves, James Street and an exceptional collection of cafés and restaurants are all close by. New Farm State School and respected private schooling options add further appeal for families.
For buyers seeking character, land and the freedom to shape a New Farm residence, 'Varrowville' presents an opportunity that would be difficult to replicate. Enquire today.
