Rich in 1920s character and beautifully presented for modern living, this charming Queenslander combines timeless appeal with a spectacular poolside setting, elevated district and city outlooks, and exciting potential to grow in the future.
An elevated front verandah introduces interiors rich in period detail, with polished timber floors, soaring 3.19m ceilings, VJ panelling, timber fretwork and stained-glass windows. The generous living room provides a welcoming central space, complemented by two bedrooms and a fully renovated bathroom with contemporary finishes.
At the rear, the kitchen and meals area creates a relaxed space for everyday dining, featuring classic cabinetry, timber benchtops and quality stainless-steel appliances, including an oversized gas cooker. From here, the home opens effortlessly outdoors to its standout entertaining zone.
The expansive covered rear deck provides plenty of room for dining, lounging and outdoor cooking, overlooking the sparkling inground pool and beautifully established gardens. Beyond, the elevated position captures district and city skyline glimpses, adding a striking backdrop to an already impressive outdoor setting. A second covered area beneath the deck provides another versatile space to relax, entertain or keep an eye on the pool.
The lower level adds valuable functionality with secure remote car accommodation, a separate laundry and additional storage. With approximately 2.45m ceiling height beneath the home, there is also potential to build in additional living or accommodation in the future, subject to approvals, allowing the home to evolve as needs change.

The location is already one of Bulimba's great drawcards, with Oxford Street's boutique shopping, cafes, restaurants and cinema within easy walking distance. Local favourites including Darvella Patisserie, Melrose and Oxford 152 are close by, while the Brisbane River and riverside walking paths offer an easy escape for outdoor recreation. Adding another exciting dimension to the location is the transformation of the historic Bulimba Barracks. The former 1943 fabrication workshop is being adaptively reused as a new lifestyle and community precinct, planned to introduce a boutique supermarket, cafes, restaurants, retail and wellness offerings.
The broader redevelopment will also open up previously inaccessible riverfront land, with new public parklands, a riverside pavilion, playgrounds and improved pedestrian and cycling connections. The result will be an exciting new neighbourhood destination adding further amenity to an already highly sought-after part of Bulimba.
Families are well catered for with Bulimba State School, Sts Peter and Paul's School and Lourdes Hill College nearby, while public transport provides convenient connections to the CBD and surrounding suburbs.
With its character-filled interiors, elevated poolside setting, city glimpses and exciting future potential, this is a Queenslander that offers an enviable Bulimba lifestyle today, with even more to look forward to tomorrow.
