28 Confederate Street, Red Hill, Qld 4059

This unique character-filled cottage offers easy, breezy living in an outstanding location on the high side of the street that’s surprisingly quiet but within easy reach of the CBD, Paddington’s shopping and cafes, QUT and Brisbane’s 2032 Olympic precinct.

The property occupies an elevated block that captures prevailing north-easterly breezes and expansive views from the city skyline in both directions towards Kelvin Grove and Red Hill. The front of the home and staircase has a hand forged steel balustrade in art nouveau style, which trails up to a side landing and the front verandah. The interiors are stylish, oversized and comfortable, with high ceilings, VJ walls and an original mixture of 100 year old wide hoop pine and blackbutt timber floors which have been hand sanded and waxed adding warmth and character. The open plan lounge and dining room is spacious and welcoming with large casement windows capturing breezes and French doors which provide easy indoor/outdoor access.

The kitchen has been updated with stainless steel appliances including a dishwasher and dual free standing hotplates with electric oven and rangehood. Original polished concrete floors create a practical and industrial feel. French doors connect the kitchen with the rear terrace, lawn and garden – creating an effortless flow that’s perfect for alfresco entertaining and young families.

There are three generously sized bedrooms each with a recessed walk in robe – the Master also accesses a smaller sunroom which creates an ideal study or walk-in robe but also with options to convert into an ensuite.

The bathroom centres around an original old cast iron bath which has been re-enamelled and sunken into the bathroom floor and acts as a shower over bath. There is an internal laundry with a second toilet. There is also off-street parking and an ample lockable storage area underneath the property.

The location is exceptionally convenient – peaceful and quiet, yet just moments from the city, transport, QUT, Kelvin Grove State College, Paddington and Suncorp Stadium. It’s a terrific location and this delightful cottage is sure to capture hearts. Don’t delay an inspection.
