Completed within only the last 18 months, an impeccable reimagining and renovation of this inner-city classic have delivered a contemporary family abode with up-to-the-minute style finishes and high-quality inclusions. Situated 5km from the CBD and a short distance from Ithaca Creek State School, this immaculately presented home features designer-inspired interiors with sunken living spaces, a stand-out kitchen with an integrated cocktail cabinet and a stunning master suite with views to the Taylor Range. Only a short walk from public transport, retail and popular dining.
The home is private and secure with a security cameras, remote gates and intercom system and showcases relaxed outdoor entertaining, an infinity-edge pool and upper-floor accommodation spaces incorporating a family media area, a study and in-vogue bathrooms. Placed within the secondary catchment for Kelvin Grove State College, and with a selection of private schools located both nearby and closer to the city, families with school-aged children will be spoilt for choice.
Finished in fresh white and complemented by the warmth of timber, step through the vibrant, Aegean blue front door and into this exciting contemporary home that retains reminders of its origin. Coloured leadlight windows, traditional VJ linings and ripple-glass French doors tie in beautifully with this residence’s now modern expression of Queenslander living, offering a clever balance with its high-functioning appliances including ducted air-conditioning system, alarm system, security cameras all with full remote access from your phone.
Easy-care engineered French Oak flooring flows throughout living areas. As the floor steps down and the ceiling height stays constant, the increased volume looks and feels ultra-luxurious. Orb-like lighting clusters are suspended over the dining area and the kitchen’s capsule-shaped island, where Caesarstone’s Topus Concrete Quartz countertop surfaces and white, kit-kat tiled splashbacks beautifully contrast with the dark cabinetry.
Appliances are exclusively Bosch and feature an induction cooktop, oven and dishwasher, there is butler’s pantry storage, a hideaway pocket-door cocktail cabinet and a wine fridge recess that, together, add a measure of brilliance that will elevate your entertaining. Step outside onto timber deck spaces, with multiple levels ideal for dining, conversation and play. With a lush lawn, landscaped tropical gardens and a mountain backdrop, enjoy a splash in the pool, laze on the tiled poolside terrace with a book in hand and then retire to the deck for a sunset BBQ. Frameless glass pool fencing allows you to continue to keep an eye on the kids.
An open staircase directs to the upper level of the dwelling where there are four built-in bedrooms, including the luxuriously equipped master suite, a central media lounge or children’s rumpus, a study area and a deluxe family bathroom.
With a skylight above, exceptional insulation properties, soft carpets underfoot and a smart-automated, ducted and zoned air-conditioning system to provide optimal comfort, interiors are light, quiet, cool in summer and warm in winter. Blinds and drapes have been installed for privacy and light control.
The master bedroom is positioned at the rear of the home and features an enormous full-height window to capture the mountain vistas on offer. This suite is well-appointed, with a custom-designed walk-in-robe containing multi-height hanging spaces, open shelves, a dressing table and several banks of drawers.
Displaying a hotel-like flair, the ensuite’s highlights include a freestanding bathtub, twin, fluted edge arched basins upon a stone-toped vanity and oval LED-backlit mirrors. Stylish, elongated hexagon wall tiles, satin stainless-finish tapware and a rain shower complete the list of considered extras. The family bathroom is also situated on this level, with convenient powder room amenities located near ground floor living spaces.
Secure parking is provided for two vehicles within the remote-controlled double garage and off street for another two cars behind the sliding driveway gate. Elevated on a 405m2 allotment, the fully fenced landscape is impressively low maintenance end efficient home with its 6.6KW solar system with Fronius inverter.
