149 Lancaster Road Ascot, QLD 4007

A landmark c.1906 residence of enduring significance, "Reedy" occupies an extraordinary 1,640sqm across four lots with a 34.3m frontage in a coveted Ascot enclave. Tracing its origins to the historic Nyrambla Estate following its subdivision in 1905, the property has been held by the same family since 1968. A remarkable piece of local history, its level, symmetrical parcel, elevated north-facing orientation and refreshing bay breezes create an exceptional foundation for generations to come.

Rich in heritage appeal and future potential, the home offers scope to extend upward, downward or outward (STCA). Expansion opportunities have already been thoughtfully explored through an Architectural Masterplan by acclaimed architect Stuart Vokes of Vokes & Peters, which will be available to the purchaser.

Inside, more than a century of craftsmanship is beautifully preserved, with original stained glass, chandeliers, brass fittings, sash windows, breezeways and balustrades. Polished timber floors sit beneath exquisitely restored pressed-metal ceilings reaching 4 metres, creating interiors of remarkable volume, character and grace.

Original fireplaces bring warmth and atmosphere to the formal lounge, living and dining rooms, while sunlight filters through the wraparound enclosed verandah, where a bar provides an inviting setting for drinks and conversation. A rear sitting room forms a quieter retreat opening to the balcony, and entertaining continues outdoors across lower patios to the expansive lawns and swimming pool.

A refrigerated cellar complements the kitchen, while a private office and family study provide excellent flexibility for working from home. Five bedrooms accommodate the household, while downstairs, multiple multipurpose rooms create an adaptable ground floor with exceptional scope for recreation, hobbies, storage or future reconfiguration.

A newly completed three-car garage, designed by Vokes & Peters, provides beautifully considered accommodation for the car enthusiast, complemented by solar panels and secure off-street access.

Cherished by one family for almost six decades, this remarkable property now awaits a new generation to write its next chapter. Steps from Oriel Park, transport and childcare, and prestigiously positioned moments from the Racecourse Road precinct, Ascot State School, premier private colleges and the CBD, this is a lifestyle opportunity without equal.
