This four-bedroom West End residence with a beautifully appointed study fuses modern refinement and timeless Queenslander character, with a prominent corner position in one of Brisbane’s most tightly-held inner-city enclaves. 

The fully bespoke, tri-level home was reimagined and rebuilt under the direction of MR Design and KJK Interiors, who curated every detail to the highest standard.

The owners were inspired by the nearby Queensland Ballet precinct at the Thomas Dixon Centre, where a heritage building has been carefully restored and enveloped by contemporary architecture. They loved the idea of preserving history rather than replacing it, and worked with their architect and interior designer to apply that same philosophy here. 

Instead of hiding the existing Queenslander, the new home was designed around it, allowing the heritage character and modern architecture to sit side by side and elevate one another.

“This was originally a 1911 Queenslander, and I’ve never seen this done before,” Sarah Hackett told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.

“They’ve fully restored the original home and then wrapped a new house around it, so you see the beauty and charm of the Queenslander alongside something completely modern and new.”

Situated on 458sqm the residence exudes an immediate sense of presence and sophistication, from its commanding façade and wrap-around verandah to its dual street access and meticulously landscaped native gardens. 

Designed to maximise natural light from all angles, the home celebrates its elevation with soaring three-metre ceilings, expansive glazing, and a palette of natural materials including wide timber flooring, Venetian plaster, honed stone, and bespoke Navurban Tablelands joinery.

The heart of the home unfolds across an expansive middle level, centred around a dramatic architectural void, three-sided gas fireplace and sculptural Space pendant lighting.

A state-of-the-art, natural stone entertainer’s kitchen anchors the space, featuring an oversized statement island, premium suite of appliances and a fully-appointed butler’s pantry with extensive storage.

Floor-to-ceiling glass doors dissolve the boundary between the living pavilion and a private, fully-fenced outdoor retreat. A covered al fresco space with built-in Artusi barbecue flows to level lawns framed by mature landscaping, ensuring privacy. 

The sparkling saltwater pool with water feature completes a setting ideal for both relaxed family living and sophisticated entertaining. There is also a dedicated study with serene garden views offering the perfect work-from-home environment.

The ground level includes a secure eight-car garage, showcasing a turning bay, a mudroom, extensive storage, a full bathroom and internal laundry.

This exclusive address offers the best of West End’s eclectic, cultural lifestyle, moments from Montague Road’s cafe culture, the Queensland Ballet precinct, riverfront parklands and Brisbane’s leading inner-city attractions.
