Cintra House, Victorian villa in Bowen Hills, Queensland, Australia

Cintra House stands as a two-story masonry building with double-story verandahs, cast-iron balusters, and a corrugated metal roof at Boyd Street.

Built between 1863 and 1864, the residence belonged to Boyd Dunlop Morehead, who served as Premier of Queensland from 1888 to 1890.

The property transformed from a private residence to Our Lady of Victories Convent in 1927 and later housed the Queensland Motor Sporting Club.

The renovated interior contains two reception rooms, five bedrooms on the upper floor, and a modern kitchen located in the service wing.

The eastern elevation features a double-story faceted bay window added in 1890, while mature palm trees decorate the front lawn.
