Nestled within the picturesque rural-residential enclave of Pullenvale, this gracious Victorian-style family residence is poised atop 4.23ha (approx. 10.4 acres) of lush green grounds.
Entrance is via a long, private drive bordered by mature trees which enhance the seclusion and tranquility of the intimate valley setting. The sense of anticipation is rewarded upon arrival with a breathtakingly beautiful dam dotted with lily pads and birdlife.
The sprawling residence makes a defining statement poised above the picturesque dam and the gently rolling green grounds where Wallabies and native birdlife abound. The home is characterised by a striking stone portico front entrance and banks of red cedar French doors which open to a wide wrap-around verandah.
Whether greeting guests with pre-dinner cocktails or taking in the morning sun with a cup of tea or just enjoying an afternoon drink at the end of the day, the wrap around verandah, which connects to a very large entertaining deck, is the perfect spot to make the most of the gorgeous views and breezes.
The paneled door entrance swings open to reveal a wide foyer with soaring, 3-metre-high ceilings, creating a sense of space and grandeur. An extremely livable floorplan is offered across a single level with multiple living and entertaining areas and ample accommodation for a large family and guests.
Open plan in design, the kitchen, living and dining rooms are all exceptionally spacious and each enjoy an abundance of natural light and breeze via the large French doors which open to the verandah and the entertaining deck.
The dining room is so spacious it can easily accommodate a table for 12 or more, however the large, covered deck is so perfectly positioned to capture the breezes and views, most meals are enjoyed alfresco style.
A rustic wood-burning fireplace is the focal point of the living area and creates generous warmth to the entire space, bringing the family together for cosy winter nights in front of the fire.
A large media/recreation room supports flexibility for those occasions when the family wants to entertain separately.
The spacious, modern kitchen is centrally positioned allowing easy access to the dining, living rooms and the elevated front deck. It is well appointed and features fresh white cabinetry, reconstituted stone benchtops, stainless steel upright cooker and big pantry. A large island bench provides extra seating for breakfast and casual meals. Generous windows over the kitchen sink allow easy service to another outdoor entertaining area featuring a rustic wood fire pizza oven.
There are five bedrooms in total, including an enormous master bedroom with ensuite and walk-in-robe. Waking every morning to the view from the master bedroom is truly exhilarating. French doors frame a stunning outlook across the grounds and ducks glide in over the grand trees to rest on the glassy water of the dam, dappled in the morning sunlight.
Back inside and an exceptionally long hall connects the remaining four bedrooms and two additional bathrooms. Each bedroom is generous in size and includes built in robes, ceiling fans and boasts big windows and garden views. The family bathroom features a large shower recess and a white claw-foot bath.
Located at the opposite end of the home, the fifth bedroom with adjoining bathroom is virtually a second master and ideal for use as a guest suite or home office.
The exceptionally large laundry room is a very practical inclusion as it can function as a mud-room to store all the kids school bags, sports equipment, hats, and shoes. In fact, the space is so generous it could also be reconfigured to add an extra study or office if required.
The home is completely uninhibited by neighbours and is perfectly positioned to overlook the beautiful dam and the gorgeous grounds, which are a mixture of cleared areas and woodlands. A variety of grand, deciduous trees grace the property ensuring the view changes with each season.
Whether hosting an elegant dinner party along the verandah or a raucous kids birthday party, the home offers the space and scope to entertain on any scale. The huge flat cleared ground is ideal for friendly footy matches and the dam is great for summer water parties. There is also the capacity for adding stables and a swimming pool.
This rustic yet elegant residence is more than a home, it is a lifestyle. It affords moments of peace and privacy in a serene environment without having to compromise on proximity to excellent schools, amenities, and the CBD.
