This is an incredibly unique opportunity to secure a quintessential pre-war cottage that has just undergone an architectural renovation. If you've been searching for something truly unique, but thought it might sit beyond your budget, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.
Scandinavian design rests on a simple idea: good design belongs in everyday life. This pre-war Queenslander has been renovated in that spirit whilst retaining the elegance of its original architecture. The home balances heritage character with a

Inside, the original residence celebrates its heritage through soaring ceilings, intricate decorative detailing, VJ walls and warm timber floors. Three bedrooms occupy the upstairs level, including an impressive master retreat with generous walk-
in robe and private ensuite, while the main bathroom features a freestanding bath, walk-in shower and beautiful concave marble finger tiles.
Beyond the original residence, the architecture transitions dramatically into the contemporary extension, where a spectacular double-height void and soaring expanses of glass flood the interiors with natural light. European oak engineered timber flooring brings warmth and continuity throughout the expansive open-plan kitchen, living and dining spaces.
At the heart of the home, the kitchen pairs Elton Group Evenex Deep Grain Oak cabinetry with richly veined Menta marble, sourced from Spain and supplied by Franca Design. A premium suite of V-ZUG appliances includes an induction cooktop with integrated downdraft extraction as well as Combair and combi-steam ovens.
Sculptural Moooi and Foscarini pendant lighting further elevates the interiors, reinforcing the home's considered, design-led approach.
Floor-to-ceiling glazing creates a seamless connection outdoors, where covered entertaining overlooks an expansive level lawn ideal for relaxed family living and gatherings.
An additional bedroom downstairs offers valuable flexibility for guests, teenagers or a dedicated home office. A separate laundry, double garage and excellent storage complete a thoughtfully resolved floor plan designed to accommodate modern family life with ease.
Positioned in Brisbane's sought-after inner north, the home enjoys the convenience Lutwyche has offer while retaining a relaxed residential atmosphere. Kedron Brook's parklands and bikeways, local cafés, everyday amenities and HomeCo Lutwyche are all within walking distance.
Excellent transport connections provide convenient access to the CBD and surrounding precincts, with Northern Busway services and nearby Albion & Wooloowin train stations offering multiple commuting options. Families are also well catered for, with local catchment schools including Wooloowin & Windsor State Schools and Kedron State High School.
