Best of Brisbane on offer

THE sale of 33 Maxwell St, New Farm is set to attract national interest as one of Queensland’s best parcels of real estate on offer.

Home owner Tina Quintner, who has owned the quality retail outlet New Farm Bikes for more than 28 years, has lived at 33 Maxwell St, New Farm with her family for more than for 31 years.

“We have watched the cityscape evolve into a world city in this time. Kangaroo Point was a wasteland of redundant ship building facilities and old warehouses and now it is home to thousands of people in densely populated apartments,” Ms Quintner said.

“It’s been urban revival at its best. New Farm has will always have a close knit community atmosphere, a truly unique village vibe. The Riverwalk, The Powerhouse and soon to be Howard Smith Wharves all combine to make a New Farm a fantastic place to live.

“A few years ago the Brisbane City Council decided to illuminate the iconic Story Bridge, and this truly is an amazing sight every night.”

Ms Quintner said the best aspects of the house was its back deck that overlooks the Brisbane River, and to the Story Bridge and Howard Smith Wharves.

“We live on the deck for most months of the year and the swimming pool and pontoon, both in the backyard, have hosted many memorable family gatherings,” she said.

“Both of my children now live interstate and it’s time to pass the baton for another family or families to have their forever home.

“This truly has been a magical journey.”
