About this property

Toohey Cottage

Toohey Cottage is our newly renovated 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom guest house located on the edge of Toohey Forest in Brisbane's inner south. With breathtaking views stretching from the city to Cunningham's Gap, this is the perfect getaway for nature enthusiasts and urban explorers alike.

Easy access to Griffith University Nathan Campus, QSAC, the city, Southbank, the Gabba, Tennyson Tennis Centre, QEII and PA hospitals.

The space
- Main bedroom with king bed, ceiling fan and wardrobe

- Second bedroom with two king single beds, ceiling fan and wardrobe

- Third bedroom with one king single bed, ceiling fan, work desk and lamp

- Beautiful new bathroom with massive shower, bath, vanity and toilet

- Gorgeous new kitchen with gas stove and dishwasher. The butlers’ pantry includes toaster, kettle, microwave, capsule coffee machine and milk frother, as well as a European laundry (dryer is on the deck)

- Comfortable dining and lounge spaces, with large air conditioner and 4K 50” smart TV where you can log into your streaming accounts using our complementary Wifi, or cast your content from your smartphone.

- Amazing deck with outdoor setting where you can enjoy a takeaway from the nearby cafes, a home cooked meal or just sip your favourite beverage and watch the sunset over the distant mountains.

- Large, unfenced yard, with a beautiful garden and a resident scrub turkey called Ernest (he won't hurt you unless you're a pot plant! Most of the time you won't see him).

- Undercover parking for one small car, with tandem parking for multiple vehicles in the driveway. External stairs lead down from the deck to the under cover parking area

- Keyless entry

- The living space is all on one level without steps inside. There are a few shallow steps to access the front door

We are in walking distance of a range of cafes and restaurants including the popular Todd & Pup, as well as a bottle shop. Note, we are on the top of a steep hill.

The surrounding area is a nature lover's paradise, with numerous walking tracks through Toohey Forest. Access to the forest is a short walk away in a nearby street (no direct access from Toohey Cottage). Keep your eyes peeled, as you may even spot a koala or echidna during your adventures.

As your hosts, we live next door and are available to assist with any issues that may arise during your stay. We kindly request that you respect our quiet neighborhood and adhere to our strict no party policy.

Whether you're visiting for work, educational purposes, or simply to explore the beauty of Brisbane, our freshly renovated house offers a comfortable and convenient base for your stay.

Guest access
Guests have access to the whole property excluding the locked storage areas under the house

Other things to note
We may need to access the garden for yard maintenance during your stay. Longer stays may require maintenance work to be carried out from time to time. Where possible we try to schedule these between bookings to avoid any inconvenience to guests. We will contact you first to make sure we don’t interrupt your privacy!
