Combining all the epic beauty of Hamptons-style architecture with a premier address along one of Brisbane’s most famed streets, this graceful family home delivers absolute riverfront living at its absolute finest. A sweeping 2637m2 of manicured grounds with a wide 20m frontage forms the basis to the estate which boasts a jetty and pool, as well as an expansive two level home that is perfectly oriented to maximise the expansive river views. The generous block size also allows for the possibility of subdividing a street front block off from the main property providing options for the future (STCA).

Commanding, bespoke and so elegantly appointed, the highly specified design by Trebilcock and Associates Architects, offers a beautifully detailed representation of the classic look with a high level of fittings and finishes, plentiful marble, recycled timber floors, an abundance of glass and soaring ceilings throughout. Aside from the obvious aesthetical advantages, the design also encourages plentiful light and a natural cross ventilation as well as ensuring full benefit from the surrounding panorama. This of course, focuses primarily on the pool and river beyond, with verdant scenes of mature specimen trees, rolling green lawns and immaculate gardens all playing a supporting role.

The capacious kitchen makes a similarly picture-perfect style statement, combining marble bench tops with banks of soft closing cabinetry and a butler’s pantry for good measure. Surrounded by casual living, the whole space then flows out to the covered terrace, allowing for easy and effortlessly stylish everyday living. Upstairs, four double bedrooms display generous proportion with their built-in wardrobes and gabled ceilings. They share the main bathroom that utilises a family-friendly three-room configuration with two separate vanity units. Situated at the end of the hall, a fifth, main bedroom is a true parent’s retreat in every sense with an expansive ensuite (complete with riverside bath), a walk-in wardrobe and far-reaching views from both the large bedroom and private balcony. There is also an office and third full bathroom on the main floor while outside, a four car garage provides ample parking and storage with bore water on hand to support the well-maintained gardens.

Houses of this magnitude rarely come onto the market for the simple reason that they make such wonderful homes in which to raise a family. This residence is a perfect example of that, offering not only five bedrooms and multiple living areas, but a pool, jetty and private grounds. Add in the proximity to good schools and Indooroopilly Shoppingtown and this grand home really does deliver a distinctive residence that is so befitting of its premier address.
