Last Listing description (April 2020)

Balancing traditional character and modern comforts, this beautiful four bedroom Queenslander retains many elements of its original construction, contrasted with a clever renovation. Greeting the quiet Drake Street with a vintage weatherboard frontage, this classic piece of Brisbane architecture has endured the test of time.

The interior boasts a series of classic features that make for a warm living experience, including VJ walls, original timber flooring, Flemish glass windows and high ceilings. Entering on the main level, a flowing design leads to a comfortable living and dining area, utterly filled with light and gentle breezes provided by large windows and doors. At the very rear lies a vintage peninsula kitchen, providing the modern chef with ample space, generous storage and gas appliances.


From the main living area, a vast deck unfolds over the rear of the property offering a covered and private space to enjoy the leafy aspect. Stairs lead down to a rolling green lawn, certainly one of the most generous exterior offerings in the inner city. This blank canvas would be perfect for an extension, addition of further outdoor entertaining areas or even a pool, subject to Council approval.

All four comfortable bedrooms lie close to the front of the home, each generously sized with large windows. The master bedroom boasts air conditioning and direct access to the street-facing front balcony. A family bathroom with shower and vanity completes the interior.

Additional features include off-street parking for two cars, and an expansive under-house area with laundry, additional powder room and laundry.

Moments from Montague Road and the Brisbane River, this fantastic position provides the perfect cosmopolitan lifestyle. Within walking distance are shops, cafs, restaurants and several green spaces, including Musgrave Park and Orleigh Park. Connection around Brisbane is provided by city-bound buses and the nearby West End Ferry Terminal. This home also lies within the desirable Brisbane State High School catchment area.
