84 Cochrane Street, Red Hill, Qld 4059

A stunning internal courtyard delivers the ‘wow’ factor to this much loved family home, revamping the Queenslander layout and offering exceptional liveability in a prime inner city location.

This spacious 5-bedroom property occupies a large 506m2 block and an extra wide 18-metre frontage helps to create a stately street appeal. An inviting L-shaped veranda perfectly frames the home, offering traditional, welcoming charm as well as a lovely spot to sit and relax.

But, internally this character home takes a contemporary detour.
A renovation designed by acclaimed architect James Russell, delivered a layout that radiates off a huge, open-air private courtyard. It is the focal point of the home, acting as a light-well and the centre of family activities; it has been a safe and secure children’s play area, a stage for memorable, milestone parties, as well as spontaneous intimate gatherings. It feels fresh and modern, yet in keeping with the character of the home.

The neighbouring kitchen features an extra long stone bench top, offering an abundance of room for meal preparation. There is plenty of storage and quality appliances. A delightful nook with a striking, frameless corner window is ideal for casual meals or doing homework, while to the other end of the kitchen is a cosy sitting area. In the original part of the home, there is a formal dining room and an elegant lounge with bookshelves. Full height timber framed doors offer a seamless connection between all areas and the internal courtyard, creating a wonderful indoor/outdoor flow, capturing natural light and ensuring the entire home feels ‘connected.’ The property has been very thoughtfully designed and boasts multiple spaces for socialising or quiet relaxation – regardless of the season, weather or time of day, there will always be the perfect spot.

There are three bedrooms at the front of the home; two have built-in cupboards and all have a/c. They share the modern main bathroom, which features quality tiles and fixtures, an oversized bathtub and conveniently there is a separate powder room.

The Master suite and a fifth bedroom occupy their own wing at the rear of the home. The Master has a full wall of built-in storage and an ensuite with twin vanities and a luxurious spa bath. There is also another full bathroom and a family sized laundry, with a separate drying courtyard.

This is a spacious home, all conveniently on one level. It is immaculately presented; the timber floors have been repolished and internal walls freshly painted. There is split system a/c throughout the home, ensuring year round comfort and off-street parking for two vehicles.
It is situated in the heart of one of Brisbane’s most desirable, blue-chip locations. The cafes, boutiques and shops of Paddington are on your doorstep, there are numerous quality primary and high schools within easy reach and it’s an easy commute to the CBD.

This property is a celebration of lifestyle and connection. It offers excellent liveability, with an appealing single level layout and a modern floor plan – it is so much more than its charming and beautiful façade.

It’s an easy home to live in and even easier to love.
