Last Listing description (July 2018)
As the imposing wrought iron gates slowly open, it is impossible not to feel a growing anticipation at what may lie behind the great stone wall. This feeling builds as the driveway winds through immaculate gardens culminating in a glorious sight - a Georgian inspired home of breathtaking beauty and proportion. 626 Jesmond Road Fig Tree Pocket is a serene haven in one of Brisbane's most sought after riverside suburbs, just 20 minutes from the city.
Timeless with a modern take, the house has undergone a complete renovation over four years which has established it as one of Brisbane's landmark residences.
