Where the craftsmanship of the 1920s meets the rare flexibility of dual-occupancy living, this remarkable Hendra home offers something today's buyers rarely find in one address: heritage character, generous space, and a fully self-contained second dwelling that opens a world of lifestyle and investment possibilities.
Framed in classic charm and set behind the timeless streetscape of one of Brisbane's most coveted inner-north suburbs, 24 Gordon Street announces itself with the kind of character that simply cannot be manufactured. Built in the 1920s, this substantial home has been thoughtfully evolved, honouring its origins at every turn while embracing the comforts of contemporary living.
The layout has been designed with rare versatility in mind. The main residence spans two levels, each with its own direct street access, while a separate self-contained granny flat - with its own private entrance - sits independently on the block. Whether your priority is multigenerational living, a private retreat for grown children, working from home with genuine separation, or a strong rental income stream, the possibilities here are unusually broad.
Ascend to the upper level and you are welcomed by elevated ceilings and a sense of genuine airiness that only homes of this era can deliver. Decorative period details pay unmistakable homage to the home's storied past. The kitchen is a beautifully appointed space finished with granite benchtops and generous cabinetry, including an oversized pantry - a practical luxury that speaks to the care taken in this home's presentation. The adjoining dining and living areas flow naturally together, creating a warm and inviting heart for everyday life and effortless entertaining.
Two bedrooms reside on this level, including the generous master suite complete with its own private ensuite.
The lower level can be reached internally or directly from the street, opening to a second substantial living zone, the kind of flexible space that growing families or those working from home will immediately appreciate. French doors open onto a covered entertaining verandah: the perfect setting for lazy Sunday mornings, evening gatherings, or simply soaking in the rhythm of inner-city Hendra. Three well-proportioned bedrooms complete the lower level, each fitted with built-in wardrobes, with the laundry also conveniently located on this floor.
Separate to the main residence and accessed via its own private entrance, the self-contained granny flat is one of the property's most compelling features. House extended family in complete comfort, generate a strong rental income stream, or provide a private retreat for grown children seeking independence. In a suburb as sought-after as Hendra, this additional dwelling is not merely a bonus - it is a genuine asset.
Split-system air conditioning runs throughout the home, ensuring year-round comfort across every level.
Hendra is one of Brisbane's most enduringly desirable inner-north suburbs. A leafy, village-like community positioned just minutes from the CBD, yet retaining a relaxed neighbourhood charm all its own. A short walk delivers you to Hendra's own pocket of everyday essentials - Hendra train station, a florist, convenience store, hardware store and well-loved local Thai restaurant. The kind of small, useful details that make a neighbourhood feel like home.
A few minutes further afield, Racecourse Road's celebrated dining, boutiques and services offer the polished side of inner-north living, while the newly returned Eagle Farm Markets bring a fresh weekend ritual to the doorstep. Racecourse Village, anchored by a full-line Woolworths and a curated mix of specialty shops, cafés and services, sits just a three minute drive away, covering the everyday with effortless ease. With excellent schooling options, effortless access to the Airport Link, and Doomben and Eagle Farm racetracks within easy reach, the lifestyle on offer here is as rich as the home itself.
Homes that carry this much soul and offer this much flexibility, rarely come to market in Hendra. This is one worth moving quickly for.
