Make it all about lifestyle and entertaining with this easy-care, riverfront residence located just minutes from the city that boasts modern, contemporary looks, plenty of room for all the family and a host of design features for living and entertaining in relaxed style.
Certainly the whole lower level acts as one impressive space thanks to its minimalist floor plan, integrated custom cabinetry and sleek finishes in timber, stainless steel and crisp white. While its open plan design allows for river views from the moment of entry, areas for living, dining and even music are delineated by subtle architectural tweaks – an in-built stone-topped bar for example, separates the dining area from the music room while also cleverly providing room for integrated wine fridges. The living room meanwhile, occupies its own waterfront nook with just a wall of louvers separating it from the river.
The kitchen is very much a focal point here with two massive banks of floor to ceiling cabinetry and a sprawling island bench ensuring plentiful storage so as to maintain the clean lines of the thoroughly modern installation. Fixtures have also been chosen with care, with the enviable Miele suite boasting a 900mm induction cooktop and an in-wall espresso machine. Given the home’s position and focus on lifestyle, much of this lower level is dedicated to entertaining with a secondary alfresco kitchen creating a transitionary space between indoors and out thanks to bi-folding doors which give a seamless flow between the living area and the private, covered dining deck. With an in-built pizza oven, barbecue, fridge and sink it is the perfect space for relaxed riverfront meals year-round. This focus on entertaining continues beyond the deck with the terraced 582m2 block making space for a grassed area for children to play, area for relaxation, a pool and even a waterfront veggie patch leading down to the private pontoon. There is also a study, a fifth, guest bedroom, a bathroom and powder room.
Upstairs the parent’s retreat occupies the whole riverfront span and gives space for both a walk-in and built-in robe, a large and light-filled study and an indulgent ensuite complete with water views from the spa. Two of the three children’s rooms enjoy balcony access and all interact well with the family bathroom and large communal rumpus with study nook.
Recently refurbished, the home now enjoys all the modern conveniences including a ducted vacuum system, airconditioning, intercom and surround sound in the downstairs lounge. Storage has also been well-addressed throughout.
Just a short stroll down Boundary Road, all the vibrancy and off beat charm of one of Brisbane’s most well loved neighbourhoods delivers plentiful restaurants, shops and nightlife. The CBD can also be reached in under five minutes making this property an excellent option for the busy executive wishing to move in and simply enjoy the superb riverfront lifestyle Brisbane has to offer.
