This grand 1912 Queenslander home at Coorparoo has been gracefully restored and luxuriously transformed for modern living, while retaining its connection to local history.

One of three historic houses within this prestigious heritage-listed enclave, the stately “Davaar” assumes an expansive, elevated position just moments from elite schools, express transport routes and the dynamic new Coorparoo Square precinct. Boasting a perfect rear north-east aspect and sweeping area views, the dual-level home has undergone a complete and lavish renovation, yet still remains true to its original spirit.

A wide verandah wraps around the home’s entire upper level, where traditional character creates a stunning ambiance for its four spacious bedrooms. Soaring 11 foot ceilings, archways, ornate timber fretwork, VJ walls and sash windows have been combined with the modern design elements of a master ensuite, walk-in robe and striking marble bathroom.

Downstairs, sophisticated contemporary elegance has been sympathetically executed across the main open-plan living zones. VJ walls and timber flooring have been carried through, while a character-inspired marble fireplace adds to that sense of yesteryear. A designer kitchen however, represents the height of modern style and function with its 2Pac self-closing cabinetry, long granite island breakfast bar and full suite of Miele appliances.

Offering an indoor-outdoor design, the space unfolds along two walls onto the vast alfresco deck, infinity-edged saltwater swimming pool and full-sized floodlit tennis court. All elements across the level seamlessly interconnect to offer the finest in both communal family time and large-scale entertaining.

Residents of this exceptional property are also promised peace, privacy and the ease of walking distance to rail transport, Langlands busway, highly regarded schools including Villanova College, Coorparoo’s main shopping precinct and the new Coorparoo Square cinema and dining complex.
