‘Wandin’ is a remarkable home with a long architectural history. Built around 1916, this Queenslander’s original owner chose the premium options available during its construction, including distinct designs of pressed metal to accentuate the high ceilings, ebony door handles commissioned and imported from England, lead light windows and doors, VJ’s, and a wide wraparound verandah.
Only 18 months ago, the current owners lovingly completed an extensive renovation of the entire residence, taking into consideration some of the original decorative features while tastefully transforming ‘Wandin’ to a modern, technologically smart home of grand proportions.
