Built in the bold Santa-Fe style, this grand residence creates a personable, vibrant splash in the rolling hills of Pullenvale. Traditionally constructed in adobe mud brick and with all the colour, personality and zest expected of the style, this property is distinctive, funky and effortlessly cool. Meticulously reproduced, customary features are prevalent however, modern touches have certainly not been forgotten with air-conditioning, cable television and internet. In this way, the old has been cleverly blended with the new to create a residence that is exciting, bold and a wonderfully accessible family home.

The somewhat formidable entrance really sets the tone with its high rammed-earth walls painted in yellow ochre, massive timber doors and bell tower. The main courtyard is the soul of the complex with the house wrapped around it on three sides and incorporates a tranquil water feature and covered seating area.

Inside, the home is dominated by a central living and dining area that can be opened onto the courtyard and rear deck. The adjoining kitchen is stylish with walk-in pantry and hard wearing stainless steel bench tops. Other features include recycled timber beams and bread oven door from the Arnott’s Biscuit Factory, massive dormer windows in the main bedroom from the Commonwealth Bank Building and turpentine timber logs from Stradbroke Island in the pergola over the pool. The home has five bedrooms; a guest suite with ensuite, three children’s bedrooms, family bathroom and main bedroom with ensuite, walk-in robe and courtyard access.

This property offers an outstanding lifestyle with the 4 hectare grounds able to accommodate the pool, media room, flood lit tennis court, citrus orchard, spring-fed dam, rustic barn, fenced paddock (with two donkeys), chicken coop and direct creek access with the Pullen Pullen Creek running through the grounds. Then there is the separate self contained guest cottage with private access, kitchenette, bathroom and large garage/studio/storage facility.

Situated in prestigious Pullenvale, the property is surrounded by nothing more than lush natural bushland with just the occasional glimpse of another executive acreage property through the trees. And yet it remains just a short drive to schools, shops and only 15km to the CBD. With its secluded country setting, abundant leisure amenities and that distinctive residence with its bold Santa-Fe styling, this property is vibrant, exciting and just so enticing.
