61 Swensons Road, Mount Crosby
Set
at the back of a 1.5 acre block and built by a local stonemason for his
residence, this home has character and history. Overhead, the gables
reach 8m and the ironbark lintels were ex-structural support beams
salvaged from The Brisbane Underground Nightclub.
The .5m-thick exterior stonework was secured from buildings in
Brisbane including the historic Cloudland, demolished in 1982. The
western wall stones were quarried locally by our early settlers –
convicts. With about 80t of uncut stone, most hand-placed, this house is
set to stand solidly for hundreds of years.
The current owners are taking this beauty to market and hope to hand
the keys to someone who will cherish it as much they have. Come and see
for yourself why it’s so special…
