Secure a slice of history with the rare opportunity to purchase this fully restored Colonial Georgian Mansion.
Perched on 4818m2 of prime landscaped grounds, Booval House is the oldest two storey residence in Ipswich.

Built in the 1850′s for banker George Faircloth during an era when size was paramount, this magnificent home has been fully restored and is presented impeccably and fitted to the highest standard.
The present owner’s care and attention to detail is evident throughout. Every aspect of this home makes a statement.

Booval House proudly boasts Heritage Awards:
2000 Ipswich City Council Awards for Excellence, Ron Brown Memorial for Heritage Conservation and 2002 National Trust of Queensland John Herbert Gold Award for Excellence in Heritage Conservation.

The residence is surrounded by mature gardens and sprawling lawns and the owners share the enjoyment of this unique residence by opening “Booval House” for functions like weddings, music evenings and corporate gatherings. Picturesque views to distance mountains give the upstairs terrace an unsurpassed ambience for celebrations.

The adjoining wing has two large bedrooms on the upper level and a function room on the lower level.
Many wedding functions have taken place at Booval House and the stunning grounds have provided the backdrop for numerous wedding photos.

Booval House features grand formal living areas which include a drawing room, dining room, library, music room, five bedrooms (three with ensuite), cellar and six fireplaces and huge modern kitchen.

The landscaped grounds include two greenhouses, a summer-house, orchid house, 1850′s underground water tank and nine above-ground tanks, eight under cover vehicle spaces, workroom in garage wing and circular driveway with fountain, plus 2 street frontage with 3 entrances.

Whether the sixth owner will want to keep Booval House as a truly outstanding family residence or invest wisely in a commercial venture such as a “bed and breakfast” facility, function centre or professional offices, its value as a heritage showpiece needs to be preserved.
