Stunning Home on an Outstanding 1240m2

Commanding a significant landholding of 1240m2 and less than 3km to the CBD is this exceptional residence, which combines contemporary elegance with timeless appeal.

From its elevated position, the architect-designed home enjoys a perfect aspect, with sweeping views of the city skyline and surrounding suburbs, while the expansive grounds include a tennis court with lighting and a fully tiled swimming pool.

A secure entry leads to a lovely private garden and lawn and here you can appreciate the scale of the home. Solidly and masterfully constructed, the home has been purpose designed and built for comfortable family living and lavish entertaining.

An impressive entry vestibule and front door opens to reveal the elegant interiors. This really is a sophisticated property, with high ceilings and attractive cornices, polished timber floors throughout and an uncompromised level of finish. The entry level is home to the main living area and French doors open this generous space to the wrap around verandahs, offering wonderful ventilation and natural light. The verandahs are a highlight of the home, providing spacious and sheltered entertaining options regardless of the season or weather, while overlooking the tennis court and with those fabulous views as a backdrop.

The open plan dining and living room is grand in scale and boasts a magnificent marble fireplace, which was salvaged from a grand Brisbane home and meticulously restored. The sleek kitchen is large and well positioned to service the dining area and verandahs. It enjoys stunning views of the city and suburbs and is also in line of sight of the swimming pool and garden. Entertaining is made easy with a range of European appliances including Gaggenau wall oven and steam/combi oven, gas hotplates, Corian benchtops and 2-pac cabinetry, while an island bench offers casual dining options.

Coming directly off the kitchen is a dedicated office space with integrated cabinetry, perfect as a home office or homework zone. There is another large multi-purpose room on this level; currently used as a study with multiple workstations, it would also make a wonderful media room, library or formal dining room. For guests there is a stylish powder room near the entertaining areas, complete with marble tiling.

The ground level of the home is ideal for guests or family members seeking more independent living. Comprising a large rumpus room, kitchenette and separate bedroom and bathroom, it provides great separation for children or the flexibility to serve as a granny flat. Ideal for entertaining, this level opens via French Doors to a covered terrace, with direct access to the tennis court and swimming pool. This level also provides access to the double lockup car accommodation and abundant storage space, while a climate-controlled cellar has room for 2,000 bottles.

On the upper level of the home you will find a lovely, quiet sitting area and four bedrooms, including the luxuriously appointed and wonderfully proportioned Master Suite. The Master is positioned to enjoy views over the treetops to the CBD, which is truly spectacular at night and it also opens to a private veranda with a perfect north-east aspect. There is a marble ensuite with free standing bath and shower plus a walk-in robe with full height storage. The other three bedrooms are all of a good size, with built in storage and they share the use of the marble tiled bathroom, again with a freestanding bath. The laundry and separate drying area has been cleverly incorporated on this level, which is a superb design for practical living.

While this property is finished with a meticulous eye for detail and is undeniably elegant and luxurious, it is first and foremost a functional and liveable home, offering a wonderfully easy lifestyle in an outstanding location. It is walking distance to the Rosalie Village shopping and dining precinct and family friendly parks, close to vibrant Latrobe Terrace and within easy reach of the Brisbane River and the CBD.

This is a rare opportunity to secure an outstanding inner-city property of superb quality and scale on a significant, elevated landholding.
