Affording stunning city views from both spacious levels of this sophisticated home, experience the stylish, naturally light-filled interiors and sumptuous high-end finishes delivered at this premium address. This 18-month-old residence built by award winning builders Heisig Constructions, features two luxurious master suites, a gallery-inspired hall that opens to brilliantly integrated family living and outdoor entertaining destinations, all set upon a lush 663m2 allotment.
The location is highly desirable, with a selection of seven parks and the Brisbane Corso only a short walk away. Quiet and elevated, this exclusive street is home to beautiful Queenslanders on large blocks of land and newer abodes in keeping with the classical character style of this prestige neighbourhood.
Decidedly Hamptons in design and décor, the continuation of stylistic inclusions and colourways used throughout this residence is indeed elegant and well considered. Coastal blackbutt engineered timber floors, off-white cabinetry and light marble stone surfaces, plantation shutters and soft grey tiles and walls create a cool, beachy feel.
Contemporary white picket fencing frames the front of the home and directs to the formal entry, the deep blue exteriors contrasting spectacularly.
North facing living areas take full advantage of this most perfect aspect. Glass has been used in abundance, with wide door openings and an enormous, fixed pane allowing a restful outlook over the garden by day and a panorama of twinkling city lights by night. What a vantage point to watch the New Year’s and Riverfire events in the company of family and friends.
High 2700mm ceilings throughout the entire lower level, and taller than standard height windows and doors, add to the voluminosity of all rooms and living areas. Seamless transitions between rooms and amenities enable a wheelchair-friendly accessibility without appearing obvious.
The generous open living layout is a gathering place for all the family, with roomy lounge seating, study nook and a light and airy kitchen with glass splashback and built-in feature timber dining table.
Matt finished, smooth marble stone benchtops, upmarket Garsden and Clarke cabinetry, butler’s pantry and select European appliances will inspire the gourmet cooks in the household. With a Neff multi-function wall oven, Bosch 5 burner induction cooktop and Miele dishwasher, efficiency and consistency are effortlessly achieved. Designer touches include a contemporary white sink and satin stainless-steel tapware and trims.
Relaxed outdoor entertaining spaces are spread across the full width of the rear of the home, with covered lounging and table dining areas and a sun-drenched open terrace. The fully fenced surroundings and level lawns provide safe, soft playing surfaces for children. With plenty of room for an inground pool to be installed in the future, a very large 3m x 3m steel garden shed in the corner of the yard has already been plumbed and wired in preparation for housing filtration equipment.
With five bedrooms in total, this residence seeks to accommodate everyone comfortably, from young children to teenagers, and is perfectly suited to guests and ageing parents that may reside with you.
At ground level, a private king-sized master suite opens via French doors to the front garden, granting a lovely outlook. There is a large walk-in robe and a stylish ensuite with floor to ceiling tiles in soft greys and an on-trend, satin white herringbone pattern feature, niche shelves and upscale rainshower tapware.
An additional bedroom on this level would also make an ideal work from home office, with its location near the entry foyer and boasting walk-in robe storage. A powder room adjacent provides convenient amenities to the downstairs living areas, and for visitor use. The navy, grey and white Hamptons designed feature floor tiles draw on the residence’s dark blue exteriors.
The timber staircase ascends through a light-filled void to the upper-level bedrooms and spacious rumpus. Both this spacious timber floored living area and the second king-sized master suite open to a tiled balcony that captures vistas of the city skyline. A wall of glass allows you to see the sights and lights from the comfort of your bed. With walk through robe leading into the private ensuite, again, the seamless design and high-quality finishes continue.
Two further built-in bedrooms are situated on this floor, with one having French doors that open to an elevated, exclusive use balcony. A family bathroom and separate toilet service this accommodation area.
This residence features an abundance of storage, from the bifold gloss cabinetry adjoining the study nook, to the full wall of sliding door linen storage and overhead cabinets in the stylish laundry.
Oversized at 7m x 7m, the semi-enclosed double carport features an extended width and length, with easy access pathways leading to the entry foyer and a gateway opening to an additional parking area for vehicle or trailer.
At the time of construction, consideration was given to future proofing the residence to allow it to adapt easily to evolving needs. By pre-installing electrical wiring for solar and alarm systems, adding plumbing within the wall cavity of the upstairs rumpus to enable an additional kitchen area, the owners have ensured that dual living could become a reality. A concrete slab that forms part of the outdoor entertaining area was extended, should the building be added onto, in time.
Whilst natural cross-ventilation circulates throughout thanks to the ideal north-south orientation, ducted and zoned air-conditioning for those very warm days is available across both levels. Crim-proof mesh screens to windows and doors enhance security.
Fairfield, at 5km from the CBD, offers highly sought-after city convenience and a relaxed, parkland lifestyle that is ideal for families, with schools, shopping and service amenities all close at hand. Walk or cycle to the Eleanor Schonell Bridge and cross the Brisbane River into the University of Queensland precinct. Major general and children’s’ hospitals are only a few minutes away from this location by car.
