Elevated Poets Corner Queenslander with sweeping views

Affectionately known as 'Benbullen', meaning "high quiet place", this circa.1936 Queenslander certainly lives up to her name.

Perched on an expansive and private 809m2, the elegant home's northern front aspect is matched by breathtaking vistas and cooling breezes across the rear of both levels. Plus, its peaceful yet convenient position in the prestigious Poets Corner enclave places families within easy walking distance of some of Brisbane's finest schools.

Retaining much of its authentic period charm, the upper level is defined by soaring ceilings, rows of casement windows and classic timber work. Meanwhile, the home has been smartly updated with modern bathrooms and a stone-top kitchen featuring European Miele appliances.

Multiple interior living spaces, the vast alfresco entertaining deck and family-sized swimming pool area offer versatile lifestyle opportunities; while the five bedrooms include an option to easily create self-contained dual-living (with existing separate entry) on the lower level.

Boasting stately street appeal and flourishing landscaped gardens, this impressive address sits just a short walk from bus or train transport and a direct 4km to the CBD by road. It is also located within walking distance of the Mowbray Park ferry terminal as well as local cafes, parkland and elite schools including Anglican Church Grammar (Churchie), Lourdes Hill College and Norman Park State School. The diverse shopping and lifestyle precincts of Hawthorne, Oxford Street Bulimba and Coorparoo Square are also accessible in minutes.
