15 Margaret Street

Situated in the heart of Camp Hill, a three-bedroom cottage on a sprawling 607sqm allotment has been expertly reimagined by Twohill and James Architecture to embrace both function and form, integrating the essence of Queensland living with a fresh perspective on spatial fluidity. The residence represents a seamless interplay of internal and external spaces, curated to enhance every aspect of daily life while honouring the home's original character. Beautifully restored, the home opens into a thoughtful sequence of interconnected living and garden areas. The thoughtfully redesigned kitchen features cleverly integrated storage solutions with custom-crafted cabinetry in American Walnut. A premium freestanding Ilve stove oven sits at the centre, paired with high-quality Miele and Fisher & Paykel appliances. Adjacent to a built-in bench seat, the kitchen forms an intimate gathering point that extends seamlessly into the garden through the opening window. While the existing floorplan offers three bedrooms, the home provides a straightforward option to add a fourth without sacrificing any living areas. The main living space, bathed in natural light and graced with high ceilings and timber flooring, captures the enduring charm of the original cottage. A fireplace framed in Pilbara Red marble serves as a sophisticated focal point. Full height sliding doors lead directly from the living and dining areas onto the outdoor terrace. Accents of red terracotta throughout the home provide a refined contrast. A highlight of the outdoor area is the terrace, featuring an exposed trellis that encourages climbing plants to soften the architecture. Thoughtfully designed to embrace Queensland's climate, the outdoor living area includes an alfresco dining space, an expansive deck, fire pit and meticulously maintained vegetable gardens. Completing this outdoor oasis is an 8x4.5m saltwater pool. Privately positioned on the lower level, the master bedroom exudes tranquillity with its minimalist design. Large glass doors open directly to a private garden courtyard. The suite boasts a spacious walk-in wardrobe with bespoke cabinetry and a thoughtfully designed floating vanity wall. The ensuite features a freestanding clawfoot bathtub set against small-format white tiles with accents of Pilbara Red marble. Two additional bedrooms enhance the home's versatility, with one featuring a built-in desk ideal for a home office, while the other offers built-in robes. Both rooms are serviced by a well-appointed main bathroom with soft green floor tiles. A sunroom serves as a multipurpose retreat. The lower level features a versatile studio with an open-plan layout, burnished concrete floors, and exposed timber ceiling beams. Accessible via a private entry, this space opens fully through floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors. Additional features include a security system, secure two-car garage, ample storage, and a dedicated laundry. Prestigiously positioned within one of Camp Hill's sought after, family friendly pockets, close to public transport, local shops and a range of dining and cafe options. Twohill and James Architecture have curated an immersive living experience that celebrates the seamless interplay between architecture, light, and landscape.
