A smart, sleek and newly completed renovation has largely transformed this immaculate Queenslander, bringing a well-executed designer edge to the timeless family home which sits atop a very private block of landscaped gardens with river views, creating quite the impression. Indeed, the once traditional Queenslander now boasts an expansive entertainment deck, fabulous bathrooms, bespoke lighting and myriad tailored finishes, promoting a lifestyle that is stylish, private and effortlessly relaxed – with just a touch of the exotic.

The entry immediately sets the tone, with the customary deep veranda opening to a formal entry where a clerestory window bathes the space in natural light, while a palette of white and black triumphantly marries traditional and contemporary styling. The formal dining room continues this feel, creating moody atmosphere with sombre tones and stunning timber floors which run throughout the central living areas. A casual lounge brings space to relax, especially during summer where French doors are able to open out onto the adjacent veranda and usher in river views and cooling breezes. A secondary option is the nearby sitting nook where a stone-clad open fireplace brings comforting ambiance. While granite bench tops see the kitchen work in with the rest of the high level of finishes found throughout, the central position ensures a seamless interaction with the dining room as well as the expansive, covered deck.

Two large and bright bedrooms share the family bathroom which showcases monochromatic, timeless good looks. While a freestanding bath with iconic tap ware creates a memorable focal feature, two banks of bespoke cabinetry makes certain the winning design remains clean and uncluttered. The main bedroom is very much a master suite, with balcony access, river views, a walk-in wardrobe and a stunning ensuite where the vanity bench top has been hand crafted out of rare mango wood for unique character. The fourth bedroom is located downstairs and has direct terrace access along with its own bathroom to provide the perfect setup for guests. There is also a large multipurpose room which also opens directly out to the covered terrace and garden beyond. This makes the space ideal for use as a family rumpus or a games room. The triple car garage has ample storage for a boat or trailer along with plentiful storage, a workshop/studio and an air-conditioned storeroom – perfect for use as a cellar.

Outside, the grounds has been beautifully landscaped, with lovingly maintained tiered gardens leading down to Witton Creek far below. Formally planted, the tiers form an elegant view from the house and even have mature fruit trees and a herb patch incorporated. The rest of the landscaping is just as immaculate, with well-established trees judiciously placed to promote privacy, two water features for a tranquil focus, an irrigation system and tanks. As to position, the residence is just two minutes to all the shops, eateries and lifestyle options of Indooroopilly Shoppingtown and ten minutes to the CBD.

Situated at the end of a secluded and private enclave, this family-centric property is something of a haven, a quiet escape of peaceful river views and timelessly elegant surroundings yet still within walking distance of one of Brisbane’s major lifestyle hubs.
