Architectural Brilliance in Bardon

Nestled in leafy and private Bardon cul-de-sac is this imposing, tri-level residence, which offers sophisticated living in a low maintenance environment. Designed by acclaimed architect Shaun Lockyer and dubbed the 'Lantern House' this much-admired 4-bedroom property will impress with its attention to detail, first class finishes and easy, functional layout.

The entry level is home to a large, secure double garage and storage, with direct internal access to the home.
Here you will find a bedroom, with adjoining ensuite and a large storage space.
This is ideal quarters for guests or a nanny, or could be used as a home office.
The swimming pool and surrounding decking is also privately positioned near the entry and enjoys a lush setting.

The striking staircase that forms the spine of the property is illuminated by tinted glass windows affording the home its name.
The 'floating' stairs are made from rich blackbutt timber and this flooring continues through the middle level of the home, where you will find cleverly conceived free-flowing spaces. An elegant front sitting room boasts a soaring vaulted ceiling, enhancing the feeling of space, while full height windows overlook the swimming pool and take in the lush leafy outlook.
Strategic window placement throughout the home ensures the property captures natural light and wonderful breezes and enhances the feeling of being part of the natural environment.

The kitchen is well appointed with an abundance of storage, Miele appliances and a breakfast bar that combines rich timber and practical Corian. The kitchen has easy access to the formal dining area and flows seamlessly to the expansive and sheltered outdoor courtyard, which is an ideal spot for casual dining or entertaining, against the backdrop of a terraced rear garden.
A separate sitting room makes a great homework zone or quiet TV area, while a large and well-equipped laundry is also conveniently positioned near the kitchen and has direct access to an external drying area.


There are two bedrooms on this level, both with built-in storage and sliding doors opening to a front balcony, offering fabulous cross breezes.
These bedrooms are serviced by the stylish main bathroom, which features a separate shower and bathtub.

The Master suite occupies the entire upper level of the home and is a wonderfully spacious area, with walk through clothes storage and a large and beautifully appointed ensuite, with double vanities, a bathtub, separate shower and a chute to the laundry.

The property has insulation throughout, a 27 panel, 5kw solar system and rainwater tanks for keeping the garden looking lush.

The location is outstanding - a beautiful bush setting that is private and quiet, with Brisbane Forest Park at your doorstep along with walking and bike trails. It is also close to the shops, restaurants and lifestyle precinct of Latrobe Terrace, walking distance to bus stops and falls within the Bardon State School precinct.

This is your opportunity to own a substantial home in a picturesque location, boasting a design that is both striking yet timeless.
