Fronting the Brisbane River at Kangaroo Point, this award-winning residence is set on 3,000 sqm of heritage-listed gardens and boasts a residents-only Recreation Centre. For sale by Simon Caulfield and Courtney Maguire of Place Kangaroo Point.
Nestled in one of Brisbane’s most iconic heritage buildings, the 130-year-old landmark Yungaba House, this four bedroom residence is a sophisticated blend of heritage and the contemporary.
Spread over four levels, Residence Six at Yungaba House has been thoughtfully restored to present elegant modern living, with eastward river views.
Agent Simon Caulfield told WILLIAMS MEDIA that Yungaba House is one of the most unique residential developments of its kind around the world.
“Ultimately, there are few properties that span over four stories overlooking 3,000 sqm of gardens and grounds less than 1km to the CBD,” he said. “The exceptional and unrepeatable value further underpins what is on offer with The Residences.”
