Greenaway End | A Rare 1,563m² Hamilton Estate
Designed circa 1930 by renowned Brisbane architect Eric Percival Trewern, this historically significant residence represents an increasingly rare expression of interwar architecture. Drawing on Georgian and Spanish Mission influences, its enduring appeal lies in its distinctive stucco brick construction, beautiful proportions and extraordinary collection of original architectural details.
From the moment of arrival, the home's individuality is unmistakable. Intricate original cornicing, soaring ceilings, beautifully proportioned rooms and an elegant original oak spiral staircase speak to a level of craftsmanship rarely encountered today. At its heart, a magnificent original marble fireplace remains a centrepiece of the living room, still fully functional and adding warmth and authenticity to the home's character.
Thoughtfully updated for contemporary living, the renovated kitchen and bathrooms complement the home's original architecture, creating an effortless balance between heritage charm and modern comfort. The floorplan is particularly well considered, with generous living, dining and entertaining spaces occupying the ground floor, while the upper level accommodates five bedrooms, providing excellent separation and privacy. The high ceilings throughout also create and incredible sense of space that's rarely seen.
Beyond the interiors, the rear of the residence reveals an especially beautiful setting for entertaining. A series of graceful arches creates a wonderful connection between the home and its outdoor entertaining spaces, where a substantial alfresco dining area overlooks the swimming pool and meticulously manicured gardens. The transition between indoors and outdoors feels entirely natural, creating an inviting environment for everything from intimate family gatherings to larger occasions.
Beyond the immediate entertaining areas, the expansive grounds provide an exceptional sense of space, privacy and tranquillity. A substantial lawn and established landscaping create a peaceful garden retreat, while subtle glimpses of the Brisbane River provide an additional reminder of the home's privileged Hamilton Hill setting.
