359 Brisbane Corso Yeronga
With views across the Brisbane River to the treetops of St Lucia, a contemporary Yeronga home offers the perfect blend of multi-generational living and luxury waterfront lifestyle.
Leanne and Bryan Pullar bought 359 Brisbane Corso in 2004, fulfilling their long-held dream of residing on the Brisbane River.
“My husband and I met when we were 16 and we always wanted to buy a place on the river that faced north,” Mrs Pullar explained.
“Everything we did was towards that and then we came across this place at Yeronga and it had the perfect aspect.”

Set on a 916sq m block, the home spans three levels and includes four bedrooms, a study, rumpus room and sub-terranean wine cellar along with a self-contained granny flat, boat pontoon, and swimming pool overlooking the river.

Over the years, the Pullars have lovingly upgraded and added to the home, completing a series of renovations to accommodate their family.

“When we moved in our children were 10, 14 and 16, and in the years since they’ve lived in nearly every room,” Mrs Pullar said.
“Then, at one stage my mother needed to live in Brisbane, so we built a self-contained unit.
“It’s lockable, has its own kitchen and deck, and there’s another bedroom adjacent to it on the same level so other family members could stay there when they came to visit.”

The home’s evolution has seen it effortlessly cater to all stages of family life – from a busy household with three teens to adult children visiting with their young families.
“It’s an ideal home for a multi-generational family,” Mrs Pullar said.
“It works because there are a lot of areas where you can have privacy but there are also amazing spaces where you can come together.”

A key feature of the property is an expansive covered deck with barbecue, dining, and lounge area on the central level.
“We spend most of our time on that deck looking out onto the river, and because it’s so big, we see so much water,” Mrs Pullar said.
“We’ve seen white dolphins, pelicans and it’s so beautiful in the morning with the sun coming up.
“Sometimes, it’s like a mirror reflecting the sky including the most beautiful pink sunsets, other times when it’s windy, it’s more broody.”

The vast back deck adds to the home’s entertaining credentials, with the home hosting countless family events over the years, including major milestone birthdays and even a wedding.
“It’s been a great house for entertaining,” Mrs Pullar said.
“The whole house is designed for ease of living, entertaining and a big family, right down to stations in the kitchen so you can all prepare meals together while talking.”

Meanwhile, she noted the property’s location and the welcoming neighbourhood were also major drawcards.
“You can walk to South Bank or the University of Queensland, so it’s pretty magical,” she said.
“We’ve also taken our boat to South Bank for dinner or to Moreton Island and Tangalooma.”
After two decades living in her dream riverfront home, Mrs Pullar said the time had come to downsize.
“We’ll be sad to go as it’s a beautiful house, but it needs a family to fill it,” she said.
“Everyone loves this home as you walk in and it instantly feels like you’re on holiday.”
