MAYFIELD - A 1920'S LANDMARK
One of Ashgrove's landmark homes, 'Mayfield' is a beautifully restored 1920's Queenslander situated in the Dorrington parkland precinct. Featuring original Breakfast Creek sandstone from stables at the historic Palma Rosa in Hendra and a heritage staircase from the Sisters of Mercy at Wooloowin; this elegant family home has been remodelled with contemporary finishes to complement its turn of the century charm and wonderful warm, welcoming ambiance.
Lovingly restored by architect Charles Ham, Mayfield was relocated from Hendra. With every consideration made to ensure the preservation of its period features, the materials were largely sourced from various locations around Brisbane. Alongside modern touches, it's a versatile offering and an exceptional example of how these landmark residences and traditional features can be reimagined for modern living.
Nestled on an easy, level 904m2 corner block, the site also contains what was once 'Mrs Digweed's Lolly Shop', a local corner store owned and run by Mr & Mrs Digweed. With a commercial approval, the old corner store is now used as professional suites providing a valuable income stream.
With an unmistakable presence, this distinctive property and neighbourhood icon makes a compelling opportunity as a residential home with a wide range of development potential, not only limited to subdivision.
A beautifully preserved piece of history with future potential, this property presents endless possibilities for growing households, extended families, work-from-home professionals, or those seeking a home with significant additional income potential.
Ideally located in a family-focused village setting, it is within walking distance to sought after local schools, Frasers Road café scene and enveloped by the ever popular Dorrington Park.
