Summary
Leckhampton at 59 Shafston Avenue, Kangaroo Point, Brisbane, ca. 1895
Considered to be the work of noted architect Alexander B Wilson, Leckhampton was built for Charles Snow shortly after he purchased the land in 1889. Snow was a prominent city jeweller. He died in 1913 and the house remained in the Snow family until 1924. Leckhampton was converted into flats by the 1960s. In 1984 the building was refurbished as office accommodation. As part of the redevelopment a similarly styled building was constructed next door.
