Last Listing description (July 2026)

Set in a quiet riverside cul-de-sac, this landmark residence offers a rare opportunity to lease a home of exceptional heritage, scale and character. Known as Neville Court c.1937, the property forms part of New Farm's tightly held riverside streetscape and showcases a distinctive Spanish Mission-inspired design by architects Chambers and Ford. Positioned within an exclusive enclave, the home delivers a unique rental opportunity in one of Brisbane's most sought-after locations.

From the street, the home makes a lasting impression with its stucco faade, graceful arches, barley twist columns and iron detailing. A vine-framed entry and arched loggia lead into interiors rich with original character, including ornate plaster ceilings, bespoke lighting, leadlight windows and doors, and an open fireplace that anchors the home's timeless appeal.

Designed for comfortable family living and entertaining, the ground floor offers multiple living zones including a formal lounge with bay window seat, separate dining room (with built in dining table), and a timber kitchen with granite benchtops. A private study captures natural river breezes, while an additional lounge or music room flows seamlessly to a private loggia and central courtyard. Here, a fountain sits among established greenery and olive trees, creating a peaceful outdoor retreat. A rear yard behind the carport provides additional outdoor space with flexibility of use.

Four bedrooms and two bathrooms are complemented by a flexible retreat space ideal as a second living area, study, nursery or children's zone. The primary bedroom enjoys elevated river and city skyline views, with direct access to a balcony perfect for morning coffee or evening relaxation as the CBD lights reflect across the river.

The home is further enhanced by multiple living zones across both levels, ducted air-conditioning, automatic irrigation, a carport with workshop space, and an external laundry, offering practicality alongside its architectural charm.
