Why Auchenflower?Auchenflower is the perfect location for Suncorp Stadium (Lang Park) attendees, to watch visiting teams succumb to our local sporting heroes and have somewhere magical to return to relive the event. Handy base if the city, Wesley Hospital or University of Queensland are among your visit sites. Nearby, Paddington, Rosalie and Milton boast some of the most fabulous cafes and restaurants Brisbane has to offer. Buses leave every 10 mins or so to the city and Fortitude Valley, from 300 m away. Alternatively, Auchenflower train station is a ten minute walk. The Brisbane Botanical Gardens is only a three minute drive (2km) away, and is a stunningly beautiful location for a picnic or walk through the 56 hectares of gardens. One of the top 3 Brisbane visitor sites is just up the hill. Mount Coot-tha offers an impressive panoramic view of Brisbane and is a great spot for a bite to eat, either at the cafe or Summit Restaurant. |
Would you like to stay in a home that has been purpose built for the short term visitor looking to enjoy Brisbane in comfort, style and not so pricey?
Auchenflower Townhouses & Studios. This 1940s original Queenslander was converted into flats in 1960, complete with asbestos walls, totally unworkable floor plan, no fire separation and in need of love. We have stripped it back to its frame and purpose rebuilt for short term visitors to enjoy Brisbane in comfort, style and not so pricey? The 2 upper level townhouses and opened in November 2015. They each feature twin queen ensuited bedrooms, and both bedrooms have an adjacent sleepout with extra bed, (Queensland speak for closed in verandah used for extra bedroom). The right side has been decorated in cool greys, aquas and lime shades. The left side features the warmer reds, oranges and beige tones.
The twin studios opened March 2016. Fully self contained with private access and air conditioning, perfect for singles or couples seeking comfort in a quiet space.
Located just 3kms (1.8mls) from the CBD this is the perfect postion for guests who would like to experience suburban Brisbane living and still have ready access to the city. It is positioned close to Wesley Hospital, Lang Park (Suncorp Stadium for those under 40!) and University of Queensland.
Jenny's property was the perfect place for our small family to stay. The house had everything we could possibly need and had a great homely feel. The sleep outs were brilliant for our boys they loved having their own little space but were still close to us. I loved how there were two bathrooms one which included a bath for the kids. There was also a great outdoor area to quietly relax and watch the kids play. Auchenflower is lovely and quiet but you're also still very close to the city and shops. Jenny was fantastic with communication and was so lovely to deal with. We would definitely stay again.
