16 Heavey Crescent, Whitfield, Qld 4870

Enjoy the privilege of owning a piece of history, with this unique heritage-listed property, the legacy of renowned architect Edwin Oribin. Delivering inspiration from every aspect, the character and integrity of The Oribin Studio carries through from conception to execution. Designed for the tropics to maximise space, natural light and cross breezes, the high ceilings, open plan layout, and use of timber louvres and angled panels display the consideration of the architect's philosophy in every detail. Complementary elements like stone, concrete, timber, slate and copper blend rustic and contemporary in a cohesive union of aesthetics and functionality, offset by a lovely timber deck overlooking landscaped tropical gardens.

Set on a generous 1,024m2 block, minutes from the Botanic Gardens, CBD and Edge Hill, this one-of-a-kind property offers exciting possibilities as both a residential and professional space, with the potential to extend.
