Set within one of Toowong’s most tightly held pockets, this expansive and beautifully preserved Queenslander has been a loved family home by the current owner for over 50 years, delivering exceptional family appeal with immediate comfort and outstanding scope to add value over time. The home has a rich history, once associated with William Patterson, son of Charles Patterson — a prominent early figure in Toowong’s development. Charles Patterson was a significant local landowner and businessman who operated the Bon Accord Sawmills on the site of the current Toowong Village for many years. Records indicate that William Patterson, lived at 167 Sherwood Road, continuing the family’s connection to the area. This heritage adds a meaningful layer to the property’s story within Toowong’s early community.
