Pullenvale, one of Brisbanes most peaceful and picturesque rural-residential neighbourhoods, is the idyllic setting for this generous family home. Occupying an elevated 2500m2 parcel of ridge-top land, the property boasts a north-east aspect to the front and breath-taking mountain and treetop views to the rear.
Set back and screened by the established gardens, the home enjoys privacy from the street and neighbours. A timber walk way guides guests past the manicured front lawn and lush gardens to the welcoming pavilion style entrance. A commanding timber door swings open to reveal the light-filled foyer which is characterised by two rustic timber columns.
From the moment of entry, it is evident that this home has been designed to take full advantage of its incredible elevation and spectacular views. The open-plan kitchen, lounge and dining rooms are the centre piece of the home and share the uninterrupted views over the tree-tops, to the mountains beyond. A huge bank of glass doors slides open to reveal an expansive entertaining deck which runs almost the width of the home.
The deck is undoubtably the hero of this home. Suspended high above the valley, it commands a breathtaking 270 degree view, out as far as the NSW border, taking in Cunninghams Gap, Moggill and the twinkling night lights of Bellbowrie. It is the perfect vantage point to enjoy the sounds of the birds, the fragrance of the gardens, watch the wallabies and deer and experience some truly spectacular sunsets.
Back inside, the home offers an extremely livable floor plan across a single level with a choice of living spaces and separate wings for parents and kids.
To the right of the foyer is the family wing. Timber bi-fold doors allow this wing to be closed off to the main living area when required. It accommodates a large media/family room, (which opens to the garden and a private patio), three generous sized bedrooms (each with built-in-robes, ceiling fans and oversized windows with garden views) and a large family bathroom with separate toilet. The bathroom offers a double vanity with Caesar Stone benchtop, stone splash back and feature tiles and chrome tapware.
The central position of the modern kitchen allows easy access and a direct line of sight to the living and dining rooms and the entertaining deck. It is very well appointed with sleek cabinetry, Caesar Stone benchtops, soft-close drawers and a comprehensive range of European appliances including Miele oven, dishwasher and rangehood and an Ilve gas cooktop. There is abundant storage including huge walk-in pantry. The island bench provides plenty of seating for breakfast and casual meals.
The large laundry is discreetly positioned behind the kitchen with direct access to the outdoor clothesline and the two-car garage. A powder room is also available for the convenience of guests.
Ensuring peace and privacy, the parents retreat located in a separate wing, reflects the style of a chic eco-resort. It comprises His and Her walk-in-robes, a luxurious ensuite and a very spacious master bedroom. The ensuite features a double vanity showcasing Caesar Stone benchtop, tumbled marble accent tiles and a luxurious bath that is elevated to enjoy the stunning views while soaking. The master bedroom opens directly to the back deck and takes in the same magnificent mountain and tree-top views.
One of the most versatile features of the property is the separate music studio located downstairs, with custom fitted surround sound system and sound proofing. It could be used as a recording studio, art studio, media room or teenagers retreat. A powder room and huge storage room are also located on this level.
The extensive grounds have been thoughtfully designed with a blend of mature native trees, fruit trees, large areas of lawn and lovingly manicured gardens. The 8 zoned irrigation system takes care of the maintenance.
This special property will afford its new owners the sense of peace and privacy that one would expect of a country estate and the feeling of being on top of the world, all without having to compromise on proximity to excellent schools, shopping districts, services and transport. This home has been beautifully maintained and the gardens meticulously manicured. There is nothing to do except move in and enjoy the beautiful breezes, birds and the breathtaking views.
