Some homes reveal their finest qualities only when you step inside. At 35 Ford Street, expansive verandahs, beautiful city skyline views and extraordinary original craftsmanship combine to create a Queensland lifestyle that deserves to be experienced firsthand.
Elevated on an established 809m² corner allotment, this beautifully preserved 1924 Queenslander offers an impressive 301m² of enclosed living accommodation, complemented by 113m² of upper-level verandahs and decks. Its desirable northerly rear aspect captures beautiful natural breezes, enhancing the home's relaxed indoor-outdoor appeal.
A Legacy of Craftsmanship
More than a century of history is reflected in the home's remarkable original features. Hoop pine floors, preserved in extraordinary condition, bring warmth and character to the upper level, while four individually patterned pressed-metal ceilings grace the formal lounge, dining room, entrance hallway and third bedroom.
Soaring 13-foot ceilings, intricate timber fretwork, leadlight glass and ornate lighting celebrate the elegance of another era, thoughtfully retained alongside contemporary improvements.
Living Beautifully, Inside and Out
The generous verandahs are the heart of this home, providing wonderful settings for entertaining, alfresco dining or simply relaxing while taking in the elevated outlook. From the front verandah and selected living areas, Brisbane's skyline provides a captivating backdrop, particularly as the city lights emerge at dusk.
Inside, spacious formal and informal living areas offer flexibility for family life, complemented by a contemporary kitchen with stone island, quality appliances and excellent storage. Four bedrooms and three bathrooms provide comfortable accommodation, while established gardens surround a private swimming pool and tranquil water feature.
