IF you’ve ever been stuck in traffic on busy Wynnum Road, there’s a good chance you’ve found yourself peering into this historic house and wondering what’s inside.

Well now you can see for yourself — and we bet you wouldn’t have guessed that it has arguably one of the best man caves in Brisbane.

Built over 130 years ago, the eclectic Queenslander at 75 Wynnum Rd, Norman Park, is now for sale for the first time in 16 years.

The five-bedroom, five-bathroom house spans three levels and sits on a rare 952 sqm of landscaped gardens just 3km from the CBD.

The lower level is completely dedicated to an oversized rumpus room, complete with kitchenette, bedroom with ensuite and study area, which is the perfect retreat for the man of the house.

It also offers direct access through panel doors to the back gardens, inground pool and Balinese style thatched gazebo.

Owner Kevin Robinson runs a professional photography business and has collected pieces from his travels over the years — notably old petrol station signs, an Ampol oil lamp and even a jukebox — which are proudly on display downstairs.

“He’s just got a bit of a passion for it,” marketing agent Mathew Abboud of Ray White said.

“It takes him back to another era.”

So, do they come with the house?

“Unlikely but everything’s up for discussion,” Mr Abboud said.

The middle level of the house features three bedrooms, a large gourmet kitchen with butler’s pantry and spacious outdoor living areas.

Upstairs, there is another self-contained area that has been purpose built with a private staircase, ensuite, walk-in robe and living area.

A large balcony overlooking the gardens captures views of the city and river.

Mr Abboud said the level of attention to detail throughout the house was extraordinary and difficult to replicate, down to the to the brass ball catches at the bottom of the doors.

He said he had been surprised by the interest he had received within days of listing the home — which will be open for inspection for the first time on Saturday — particularly from car enthusiasts.

Perhaps that was because there was enough space underneath the house to accommodate six vehicles.
