Beloved Gordon Park family sanctuary hits market after 30 years

The six-bedroom property at 6 Willis Street is being marketed by Ray White Wilston sales agent Holly Bowden and goes to auction on 29 August.

The impressive Queenslander offers a rare combination of space, parkside tranquility, and seamless family living.

Owners Rosie Grant and Frank Donohoe bought the home three decades ago and raised their three sons - now aged 29, 26, and 25 - alongside their 15-year-old dog, Jess.

Over the years, the home evolved alongside their growing family through two major renovations in 2000 and 2009.

“This home has truly grown with us as a family. It has been incredibly versatile,” Ms Grant said.

“We did two major updates to suit the boys as they grew, adding extra bedrooms, a bathroom, a rumpus room, and a massive entertaining deck. It’s seen countless pool parties and hosted so many gatherings over the years.”

Situated on a double lot in a peaceful, tree-lined cul-de-sac, this residence seamlessly bridges timeless character and modern functionality across a block spanning two titles.

The home provides expansive accommodation with six generous bedrooms thoughtfully split across two levels, including four upstairs anchored by a private master suite complete with a renovated ensuite.

Practicality matches its scale, offering two-car undercover parking, side access, and a 3,000L water tank.

Designed to adapt to dynamic living arrangements, the lower level operates as an exceptional multi-generational hub.

Featuring two bedrooms, a full bathroom, a dedicated laundry, and a versatile rumpus zone, this self-contained space is perfectly suited for teenagers, extended guests, or a full-scale home business setup, Ms Grant said.

The interior flows effortlessly outside to an incredible private retreat.
