1835 Mount Glorious Road, Mount Glorious, Qld 4520

Originally built in Coorparoo in the 1920s and carefully relocated to Mount Glorious in 2018, this enchanting Queenslander brings together the romance and craftsmanship of a bygone era with the comfort, presentation and ease of a home that can be enjoyed today.

Immaculately maintained and surrounded by established floral gardens and lush rainforest, the home is rich with character. Beautiful hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, VJ walls, decorative timberwork and exquisite stained glass create an immediate sense of warmth, while skylights and generous windows draw natural light and greenery deep into the interiors.

This is classic Queensland living without the feeling of taking on a restoration project. Thoughtfully updated bathrooms and kitchen, excellent presentation and carefully maintained finishes allow you to simply arrive, unpack and enjoy everything that makes a traditional Queenslander so special.

At the heart of the home, generous living spaces flow naturally to wide verandahs, creating an effortless connection with the gardens beyond. Open the home to the cool mountain breezes through summer, then gather around the wood-burning fireplace when winter arrives. From the rear verandah, the outlook extends beyond the immediate rainforest canopy to distant Brisbane city lights at night – a beautiful reminder of just how close the city remains.

The accommodation includes three character-filled bedrooms, with the main bedroom enjoying its own ensuite. The remaining bedrooms provide excellent storage with walk-in and built-in wardrobes, while a dedicated study provides an inspiring place to work amongst the treetops.

The renovated kitchen is practical and welcoming, complete with a Smeg oven and generous pantry, while the renovated bathrooms complement the home's heritage character without compromising modern comfort.

Outside is where Frogmouth Cottage becomes particularly special. Rich, fertile mountain soil has created an abundant garden, with an established fruiting orchard including mandarin, apple, plum, cherry, peach, nectarine, lime, fig and mango, together with macadamias and wisteria. Layered flowering gardens provide colour and interest through the seasons, creating a wonderfully private setting that feels almost storybook in its beauty.

Automatic entry gates open to an expansive driveway, providing an impressive and practical arrival through the established grounds. Beneath the home are a carport and workshop, while a substantial 40,000-litre water tank supports the property.

Despite its wonderfully secluded atmosphere, Frogmouth Cottage is connected to the very best of the Mount Glorious lifestyle. Local cafés are within walking distance, as are some of the area's beautiful rainforest walking tracks, making morning coffee, weekend walks and immersion in nature part of everyday life.

Frogmouth Cottage is more than a Queenslander. It is a home with history, soul and an extraordinary sense of place – romantic enough to capture the heart, yet immaculate and comfortable enough to simply move in and live.
