1 Ramor St, Kenmore is a 5 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 3 parking spaces. The property has a land size of 960m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in December 2023. There are other 5 bedroom House sold in Kenmore in the last 12 months.
From a nuts-and-bolts point of view, this house has it all. Generous spaces, high raked ceilings, 5 bedrooms, brick and tile construction, the perfect layout for families with a clever separation of spaces and the much demanded seamless flow from kitchen to living to outdoor alfresco to pool and all on an enormous 960sqm with an elevation that guarantees soft summer breezes and panoramic views across to the CBD and Mt Coot-tha and all within a minute or so from public transport, shops, restaurants and services.
But this home is so much more than a sum of its parts. Architect designed and built in 1973 by Conrad & Gargett, one of the older and most renowned architectural firms in Queensland, known as much now for their quality of workmanship and unique style as they were back in the early 70s. Full of original features and character, this exceptional home is as much a testament to the build quality of Conrad & Gargett as it is the love, care and devotion our sellers have clearly lavished on it for the last 50 years.
First time to the market ever, this is a very special opportunity to buy a slice of Kenmore history. 1 Ramor Street is the last piece of what was the pineapple farm owned by one family since 1870 that stretched from Marshall Lane to Akuna Creek and Kersley Road. And as a timeless reminder of its history, the red cedar skirting boards and doors incorporated into the house came from cedar trees grown and milled on the property for the original farmhouse that was built back in 1887.
Don't take my word for it though. Come and see this for yourself only do it quickly. If you are like me, you have driven past this property a million times and will be amazed by what is actually up here. Something this special will be snapped up in a heartbeat.
