Originally built in 1927, 'Merriwee' sits proudly on the high side of Watson Street and commands 180 degree views, extending from the Story Bridge, east to the Hamilton reach of the Brisbane River and out further north, offering glimpses of the sand hills of Moreton Island.
This residence has been owned by only two families and has evolved into a warm and inviting spacious family home. Offering 6 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, both formal and relaxed living spaces, this home can comfortably host all family occasions.
The home features a beautiful panelled formal dining room, comfortably seating 10+ with double French doors opening onto a wonderfully proportioned sunroom with views out to the Brisbane River and Gateway. Both the formal lounge and family area open up onto the north east facing covered verandah, making this area a wonderful place to relax on a summer's evening.
On 1214m2 of land, this residence offers real potential for future development of pool and with a cosmetic renovation, a magnificent teenager's retreat, separate guest area, or entertainment area could potentially be created.
Surrounded by other significant residences, this home is unique in location and character. If you desire to live in one of Brisbane's prestigious streets, this is a once in a life-time opportunity.
