About this property

Inner City Sanctuary

HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT ACCOMMODATION: Tibbets on Tillot is a historical Queensland Cottage believed to have been built circa 1883. It was first owned by Edward Deighton (a clark in the Colonial Architect's office) and was part of Deighton Estate which was basically the triangle of land that sits between Old Ipswich Road (now Gladstone Road), Boggo Road (now Annerley road) and Gloucester Street. Tillot Street where your accommodation is located was named after Edward's mother (Tillot is her maiden name). Tibbets on Tillot is also named after Sarah Tibbets (a resident from 1925-1933) who demonstrated a sassiness and naughtiness often frowned upon for a woman of that time.
ACCOMMODATION FEATURES: Tibbets on Tillot is a bike friendly, dog-friendly self contained space with a large main bedroom, separate living/dining, bathroom, laundry facilities, full kitchen and patio opening to a lush tree-filled back yard. The yard is fully fenced and secure with a separate entry to the main house.
LOCAL AMENITIES: Within walking distance of Tibbets on Tillot you will find the Mater Hospital, PA Hospital, Southbank, the Gabba, Boggo Road CSIRO Precinct, Brisbane CBD, Brisbane Botanical Gardens, UQ St Lucia Campus, QUT Garden's Point Campus, Brisbane River Walks, parks and bikeways - basically we are very central.
TRANSPORT: We are also close to the bus (we have a stop at the end of the street) and train (almost at the end of our street). We are also within the zone for electric scooters and bikes.
DINING: Local dining precincts include Stanley Street, C'est Bon, Logan Road Antiques Precinct, the Gabba, Southbank, Little Stanley Street, West End, Fish Lane and more.
BREWS: Penny Coffee Co. is at the end of our street and Two Dad's up Annerley Road about 200m. Both will service you with some of the best brews in Brisbane. At the other end of Annerley Road you will find brews of a different kind in the form of the Brisbane Brewhouse where you can taste local craft beer and food for a very fair price and the Red Brick Hotel which has some of the best pub food this side of the river.
PARKING: We have free street parking (with a supplied digital permit). Should you be driving just forward your car registration number.

Your hosts live upstairs and have two little dogs (Jupiter and Lila) who will likely say hello. Please enquire with us if you have a dog you are travelling with, as we are a pet-friendly accommodation.

What a find!
We travel to Brisbane for a month every year to visit family and this was our first stay at Tibbets on Tillot. Our first impression was impressive! The apartment is very clean, bright, and well-appointed with everything we needed for our stay. We particularly enjoyed the lovely backyard and patio, perfect for meals and relaxing outside. Access to Netflix was appreciated. The location is excellent, on a quiet street with convenient access to public transit and plenty of restaurants nearby (the butter chicken and garlic-cheese naan bread at Dude’s Dhaba is highly recommended and only a five-minute walk). Letitia and Sam were very personable hosts and the communication prior to checking in was excellent. The other two hosts, their adorable little dogs Jupiter and Lila were welcome visitors and made our stay even more enjoyable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Tibbets on Tillot and were sad to leave. A great home away from home. We’ll be back!

Perfect
It was a really easy relaxed stay. Lovely host, lovely place, plenty of room, quiet, awesome outdoor space, private, nice walk into town. Only slight negative was the patchy internet connection which I needed for some work bits and pieces, but a plus if you’re wanting to disconnect and relax. Would definitely stay here again.

Leticia is a fabulous host who has mastered the art of being available but out of sight! Tastefullyrenovated the unit is spacious and well equipped. We had everything of Brissie city just a train ride away with the added bonu of being the last stop on Airtrain route to GC. Dutton Park is conveniently located to many cafes and bike trails, inaddition to a short alk over pedestrian bridge to UQ park run. We were grateful for the host and will be back!
