Grand Residence with Spectacular Views and a Story to tell!

Some properties are special. Others are truly irreplaceable.

Built in 1923, "Red Marley" is one of Tamborine Mountain's most distinctive residences, rich in history, character and craftsmanship. Once part of the original Red Marley Farm, this remarkable home occupies an elevated corner with spectacular views stretching from North Stradbroke Island to the Broadwater, South Stradbroke Island and the Pacific Ocean.

What makes this property particularly rare is its 2,390 m2 of almost level land in Old Eagle Heights, on a quiet street, with exceptional views.

The expansive 519m2 residence blends original character with generous living spaces, featuring timber detailing, marble floors, a character-filled kitchen with butler's pantry, seven balconies and an impressive master retreat.

A spectacular hexagonal observatory crowns the home, offering a unique space for a studio, retreat or creative escape. Multiple living areas flow to a covered entertaining space overlooking the gardens and expansive lawns, with room to consider a pool.
Built in 1923, the residence carries its past with quiet confidence. Original hoop pine linings, timber detailing, and carefully preserved features remain, while the home has evolved to offer generous, liveable spaces. A sweeping staircase and grand proportions create a sense of scale, balanced by warmth and flexibility, well suited to multigenerational living or extended family arrangements.

• Character-filled, open-plan timber kitchen, with spacious butler's pantry.
• Formal dining room with built-in cabinetry and antique timber-panelled walls
• Marble-tiled flooring adding a sense of luxury
• 4 reverse-cycle air conditioning units for year-round comfort
• Practical mudroom and Stairlift for added accessibility
• Seven balconies with striking cast-iron balustrades
• Enormous master retreat complete with sitting room and adjoining nursery
• Oversized walk-in robe with plumbing in place for potential ensuite conversion
• Versatile fifth bedroom or office with its own driveway entrance

Homes of this nature are seldom offered. With a history that includes ownership by the former Lord Mayor of Brisbane and entrepreneur, Sir John Chandler, and a position chosen for its outlook more than a century ago, "Red Marley" remains one of Tamborine Mountain's most distinctive residences.

This is a property that reveals itself in person - something to be experienced rather than explained. Please contact Nori for your private inspection.
