Bertholme

Bertholme is a heritage-listed detached house at 71–73 Moray Street, New Farm, City of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia.

The house appears to have been erected sometime in the following three years, for it was standing when Stombuco sold the property in 1885 to Giovanni Pulle, an Italian merchant.

After the Cohens left Bertholme at the turn of the century, the land was subdivided, while the house became the residence of a succession of professional men.

Square in shape, but with a bay projecting slightly at the front, the house is surrounded by a convex roofed verandah.

[1] Built on the sloping riverbank, the house is lowset at the front and highset at the rear, creating a subfloor underneath.
