Take a step back into Toowong’s rich history and become the custodian of a property believed to have been built in the 1890’s for the foreman of the local farm. Behind the charming, traditional facade you will find a generously proportioned home that resonates with history yet that has been carefully modernised with a family-sized kitchen and tiled bathrooms, all designed with a nod to the house’s rich heritage. With a symmetrically fronted facade, pyramid roof, encircling verandah, decorative pediments, and interior details the house has all the features desired of Colonial period Queenslander.
