Architecturally designed & built by M.R. Baker, 88 Rome St South has been fashioned on New York’s famous Hampton Style. Set in an exclusive river pocket with a commanding street presence, the timeless design was inspired by the indoor-outdoor flow, bringing family and friends together.
Enter the home, welcomed by the central staircase and a calming palette of greys and whites, blending effortlessly with the warm timber floors. The downstairs living flows seamlessly to the outdoor alfresco terrace and in-ground swimming pool. Open the bi-fold doors and enjoy the best of Queensland indoor-outdoor living. At the heart of the home, the stunning kitchen encourages the family lifestyle with shaker-style cabinetry, overhead glass display cabinets, a large island bench, walk-in pantry with a clever speak easy style entry, freestanding oven with gas cooktop & dishwasher; perfectly located so that the pool is always in view. The living room has a full wall of custom built-in cabinetry complimenting the Hampton’s style of the home.
The floor plan allows for meals to be shared inside or outdoors on the alfresco terrace, which features a relaxing configuration to watch kids swim and lounge by the pool, kick a ball in the backyard, or entertain by the firepit. The perfect layout to ensure the kids enjoy the outdoors. The lower level of the home is complete with a large guest bedroom, separate study with built-in cabinetry, powder room and laundry.
