It's in the detail and the lifestyle… weekends on the lawn, time spent with family and the easy comfort of a home that has been genuinely loved. This is a classic Holland Park home with a warmth and character that sits perfectly in its leafy surrounds. It's a home that feels connected to its neighbourhood - where family and community are at the heart of everyday life.
A home with genuine heart, there is more to the picture than first meets the eye. Its elevated 607m² corner position brings a sense of openness and privacy, along with the kind of possibility that makes this beautifully kept home just as interesting for its future as it is appealing today.
That sense of care continues through the front door. Recently painted interiors feel fresh and light, while beautifully maintained original hardwood floors bring warmth, character, and a reminder of the home's history.
For 19 years, one family has called this place home. Children have grown up here; bikes have been ridden across to the park and countless everyday moments have become memories. You can feel that it has been genuinely loved, but equally, that it is ready for someone new to make it their own.
The floorplan is simple and practical, with three bedrooms accompanied by a central bathroom. Natural light filters throughout, while three reverse cycle air conditioners and ceiling fans in every room keep the home comfortable and well-ventilated year-round. There is no pretence here and none is needed. It is a wonderfully neat, comfortable home that works exactly as it stands.
At the rear, just off the main living and dining area, a few steps lead up to an unexpected retreat, a wonderfully versatile extra room that gives the floorplan another dimension. Set slightly apart from the home's main spaces, it could just as easily become a home office, creative studio, children's retreat, or quiet multipurpose room, adapting to whatever life calls for next.
From here, the home's easy-going character carries outdoors.
A covered outdoor entertaining area extends the living beyond the back door, creating an easy place for weekend lunches, afternoon drinks or entertaining while the kids play nearby. Beyond it, a lush green backyard provides plenty of room for children and pets or simply the pleasure of having a proper patch of lawn to call your own. An established frangipani adds colour and character, while the fruiting lemon tree feels perfectly at home in a backyard made for long Brisbane summers. There is also room to explore the addition of a pool, subject to council approval.
Directly across the road, parkland becomes an extension of home. Walking and cycling tracks, green space and an off-leash dog area are virtually on the doorstep. Children can head out for a bike ride, the dog gets its daily walk and, every so often, a koala might just be spotted tucked into the trees.
Love It Today, Dream Bigger Tomorrow
As appealing as the home is now, the land beneath it introduces another compelling layer.
Positioned on one of Holland Park's original elevated allotments, the corner block presents an exciting opportunity to hold, enhance or in time explore
creation of a new dream home. It is the kind of property that removes the pressure to make an immediate decision. Move in and enjoy its warmth and simplicity, add your own touches over the years, or look further ahead and imagine what this prominent position could become.
Beyond the boundary, Holland Park delivers the kind of established neighbourhood people tend to stay in. There is a genuine community feel, leafy streets, parks in almost every direction and neighbours who still look out for one another. Holland Park Library is also nearby, another everyday convenience that adds to the area's strong sense of community.
Brisbane's CBD is approximately 8km away, with excellent public transport and the Holland Park West Busway helping make the daily commute remarkably straightforward. Westfield Carindale and Westfield Mt Gravatt are both around 10 minutes away, while easy motorway access puts the Gold Coast within approximately 45 minutes.
Add nearby Logan Road dining, Greenslopes, Camp Hill, Coorparoo and Stones Corner to the mix, and this peaceful pocket remains connected to some of Brisbane's best everyday lifestyle precincts without losing the quiet, family-friendly atmosphere that makes coming home feel so good.
