Eton House History

Francis Curnow arrived in Brisbane in March 1860 at the age of twenty and went to work as a clerk at Cribb and Foote in Ipswich, before becoming a pay clerk for the Roads Department. From there he moved to the Railway Department, eventually becoming chief clerk of the railways.

This job brought him to Brisbane in 1877 and he purchased from James Gibbon an allotment near the site of Roma St railway station on which to build a house.

This is the house, known then as Hellesvere. Francis Curnow went on to become Queensland’s third commissioner for railways, retiring in 1889. Tragically he lost a twenty year-old son who drowned in a “swimming baths” in 1900, and Francis himself died in 1901. The house remained in the Curnow family until 1909.

In the 1930s Hellesvere was purchased by a Mrs Curtis who renamed the residence Eton and operated it as a boarding house.

Fast forward to 2020, the house has had a renovation and it now accommodates 8 rooms and an attic apartment as a Brisbane City share house.  It is a welcoming place with a range of students, backpackers and travelers looking to stay in Brisbane for medium to long term accommodation.
