THIS inner-city estate called Winbrook dates back to the early 1900s and is possibly one of Brisbane’s best kept secret gems, hidden in the river city’s smallest yet most coveted suburb of Kalinga.
The five bedroom home at 119 Nelson St, Kalinga which sits on an immense parcel of 3383sqm blue-chip inner-city land, as well as fronts Kalinga Park, has been home to Brad Gordon of London-based Acacia Mining for the last two years.
On returning to Australia two years ago, Mr Gordon and his partner Lisa Page who is an accomplished interior designer, set about returning this magnificent trophy home to its former glory.
“The house has been meticulously renovated throughout with luxurious high-end inclusions and finishes, each room showcasing the home's early colonial architectural influence,” Mr Gordon said.
Ray White New Farm elite agent Christine Rudolph said Winbrook was totally hidden from the street.
“You enter via electronic gates and down a long landscaped circular driveway that once belonged to the adjoining historical Kedron Lodge, circa 1860,” Ms Rudolph said.
“It’s like a mini resort, the property boasts a floodlit championship size grass tennis court with elevated spectator's rotunda, an in-ground swimming pool with spa and twin lounging cabanas. There’s a fully equipped air-conditioned gymnasium and outdoor entertaining facilities that overlook the picturesque parkland views.”
“The home has broad north facing verandahs on three sides, and is just under 1,000sqm of living space under roof.”
You'll also find a 4k high definition media room with surround sound, two fireplaces, wine cellar, bar room, 12 camera CCTV and video intercom systems.
The floorplan offers multiple accommodation options including spacious parent wing, in-law suite, home office, multiple living spaces for all ages, and ducted air-conditioning throughout.The home goes to auction on November 30 at 2pm.
