Harnessing the design brief to express simplicity and purposeful function, to be distinctive yet not ostentatious, and afford ultimate privacy while maintaining a significant connection to the river, this 18-month-old contemporary residence radiates an easy living style. Stepped into the hillside and unaffected by floodwaters, this gallery inspired home offers separate spaces for all the family, delivering sophisticated entertaining and recreation areas set against a breathtaking backdrop. Positioned within one of Indooroopilly’s most exclusive and secluded enclaves, this desirable locale is only minutes away from esteemed schools and golf courses.
Generous and grounding, the residence delivers open, spacious and comforting living areas that flow to the outdoors, a wine cellaring room, dedicated office, luxurious poolside master suite, games court for the kids and a gangway and pontoon to allow direct river access. A rare and covetable acquisition, this 712m2 allotment has 10 metres of absolute frontage to the Brisbane River.
Taking cues from the landscape, the residence integrates harmoniously with its surroundings. A self-maintaining rooftop garden over the garage softens against the raw concrete edges, bluestone paving, charred look exterior timbers and vertical screen elements. Secure and giving few clues from the street, the interiors will astound.
With volume enhancing high ceilings, expanses of glass offering unhindered river views and a vision drawing, eleven panel skylight stretching at length above the wide, central walkway, light naturally fills the home without any compromise in privacy. Smooth, durable Profloor engineered timber floors in Arctic Oak and extensive, custom designed, woodgrain cabinetry finishes feature consistently throughout to great effect, tying the multi-level design together.
Lounge and relax in comfort, dine in style in the banquet sized space before stepping through the stacker door opening and outside onto an enormous upper-level, glass-edged balcony with an outlook you’ll never tire of.
Streamlined and orderly, the kitchen features Bosch induction cooking, a 900mm wide, pyrolytic under bench oven for capable entertaining, double Smeg sink and houses a fully integrated, side-by-side fridge and freezer combination. The high performing, Cosentino Dekton light ivory coloured porcelain benchtop surfaces add a new dimension, with veins of soft greys and caramels. Seating five, the central island is a gathering point for families, with the kitchen also boasting a coffee nook and cocktail making area complete with wine fridge recess.
A dramatic circular staircase provides a ready descent to the downstairs living area, a rumpus, games and media room with access to the pool and casual outdoor dining terrace. With a concrete top finish the built-in kitchen allows room for a barbecue and pizza oven with additional drink fridge provision under. The main oak staircase with contemporary, white powder coated steel handrail design is located near to the entry foyer.
Bedroom accommodation areas are quietly tucked away from the living spaces offering tranquillity for study and weekend sleep-ins. Each of the bedrooms has its own walk-in wardrobe with crafted cabinetry inclusions, with the private guest room, complete with ensuite, the only bedroom on the uppermost level. Soft, pure New Zealand wool carpets draw on the colours of concrete and oak, perfectly complementing the exquisitely tiled and Caesarstone finishes within all bathrooms and the multiple powder room amenities. Stylish and consistent, brushed platinum tapware is used in all interior applications.
The master suite faces the river, where the calming vistas appear to be solely yours. Step outside to the pool at your leisure for a morning or late-night dip. Plenty of his and hers storage has been provided for in the walk-in dressing room, with multi-level hanging, shoe display and jewellery drawers.
Throughout the residence, the neat, minimalistic trend is evident. Cupboards are plentiful, though not always seen. There is a very large step in linen cupboard, brilliantly designed laundry with overhead cabinets and internal clothesline, door to the external drying court and additional storage within the double garage.
All pool equipment is stored under the pool in a secure, subterranean enclosure that sits beside the artificial grass surfaced playing court with its basketball hoop and solid block hitting wall. Currently used as a gym and perfect for storing kayaks and paddleboards, it’s just a few steps to the river’s edge and hours of fun enjoying recreational water sports.
Ducted and zoned air conditioning features throughout together with MyPlace smart controlled access security.
This exciting, near new residence will exceed your every expectation. Located just 6km’s from Brisbane’s CBD and only a few minutes to one of the finest shopping destinations in Indooroopilly Shopping Centre, this premium riverside address in the St. Peter’s precinct offers a superb family lifestyle, unparalleled convenience and prestige.
