A home to grow in and cherish, resting on the Tarragindi border, 'Kensington' is a rare family estate where historic charm, breathtaking city views and resort-inspired relaxation unite. Built c.1914 and held by just three owners, this authentic Queenslander stands proudly behind a 20-metre gated frontage on an expansive two-lot 1,265sqm parcel, offering space, a private guest/pool house, and a lifestyle designed to evolve with your family through every generation. Heritage details and thoughtful modern enhancements come together to evoke a sense of old-world beauty, with VJ walls, double-hung windows, polished timber floors, and soaring 3.1-metre ceilings, complemented by a renovated kitchen and brand-new bathrooms. Thoughtfully crafted to embrace the Queensland climate and lifestyle, the house can be fully opened to harness magnificent cross-breezes and indoor-outdoor flow, or completely closed off to experience a whisper-quiet atmosphere enriched with air-conditioning. Upstairs, shimmering city views shine from the home's heart, where living, dining and sitting areas extend to a rear deck, perfect for sunset drinks and evening unwind as the skyline comes alive. The kitchen and butler's pantry also capture this enchanting outlook, while a library/office with ladder bookcase and a downstairs rumpus with pool table create dedicated zones for work, play and retreat. Outdoors, the estate transforms into a private resort for parents and children, where entertaining can unfold across the verandah, front garden retreat, rear BBQ patio and north-facing decks, followed by sunlit serenity in the sparkling 10x5m pool, shaded spa and indulgent steam room as kids play in the cubby house, swing set and backyard.
