38 Moreton Street

New Farm QLD 4005

An extensive renovation in 2012 by the highly awarded Brisbane Architect Stuart Vokes of Vokes and Peters, saw the home given a stunning modern update and has won a State Award for Heritage, AIA Queensland Architecture Awards, 2014 and a Brisbane Regional Commendation, AIA Queensland Architecture Awards, 2014.

The u-shaped veranda at the front of the house has decorative fretted porch balustrades and original lead lighting above the large wooden front door is inscribed with the name of the home, Garnock'.

As part of the 2012 renovation, a custom designed library of Tasmanian Oak floor to ceiling shelving overlooks the front garden. A sitting room with marble fireplace, master bedroom with walk in robe, an ensuite and second fireplace are also on this level.

What is without doubt a key feature of this home is the classic French bistro style kitchen with a fireplace and pressed metal panelling. Opening onto the rear deck and overlooking the lush back yard with swimming pool, this is a home that reveals itself as you move through the unique spaces that have been created by inspired architecture.
