Top Offers Close 15th October at 5pm Warehouse volume, remarkable architectural history and an unparalleled sense of space converge at 24 Brisbane Street. Once a hospital outbuilding, the building has been transformed by architect Ric DeLuca into an extraordinary inner-city residence, retaining the sawtooth roofline, exposed brick and original structure that give it an identity almost impossible to replicate. Across an elevated 1,008sqm allotment, the home is immense yet surprisingly private. Its industrial origins remain deliberately visible: original timber trusses span overhead, recycled hardwood floors extend beneath soaring ceilings, and exposed brick carries from the exterior deep into the interior. Southern light enters through the sawtooth roof, while mature landscaping creates a compelling contrast with its raw material palette. The main living spaces reveal the full impact of the conversion. Multiple living and dining areas unfold beneath the original structure, with a wood fireplace bringing warmth to the brick and timber surrounds. Wide timber doors open to broad terraces before descending to a 9m x 3m swimming pool. Established trees and dense landscaping enclose the pool and entertaining areas, creating a tranquil environment. At the centre of the home, the kitchen brings commercial capability into a considered residential setting. Italian Calacatta marble and stone are paired with extensive two-pac cabinetry, while Miele appliances sit alongside a Zanussi commercial oven and cooktop. A substantial island creates a natural gathering point, complemented by a walk-in butler's pantry and large cold room. Its proportions are entirely in keeping with the architecture, equally suited to everyday family life and entertaining on a significant scale. The original loading dock has been repurposed as an entrance foyer, while the broader floor plan provides exceptional separation. The master suite forms a private retreat, incorporating extensive bespoke cabinetry, a walk-through dressing room, private study and stone-finished ensuite with dual basins and a substantial walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms and the main bathroom complete the three-bedroom main residence. On the opposite side of the main entry, the remaining two bedrooms are accompanied by their own kitchen, living and dining area and bathroom, allowing this part of the home to operate independently if required. The configuration provides flexibility for multigenerational living, extended-stay guests or additional separation within the home, while retaining a five-bedroom layout overall. The lower level adds another dimension, with a billiards room, wine cellar, laundry and storage. Secure parking accommodates seven vehicles, including a three-car lock-up garage, while a Control4 audiovisual system, ducted air-conditioning and 19kW solar system bring performance to the home's distinctive industrial framework. Despite its privacy, the home remains closely connected to everything that makes this inner-south location so appealing. Dutton Park Station, the PA Hospital, Brisbane South State Secondary College and the evolving Boggo Road precinct are all within easy reach, while The University of Queensland, Brisbane River, South Bank and the CBD are readily accessible. Weekend dining, riverside walks, cycling routes and some of Brisbane's most established cultural and entertainment precincts are also close at hand.
