Step into this high-set gem located on one of St Lucia’s best streets, and instantly find what you have always been looking for!
The Knowlman McDonald home was built for the current family, who have loved it since new. The well thought out design lends to the fantastic North, East, and South views available and emphasizes privacy and family function.
Located on the high side of Seventh Avenue, you can walk around the corner to Ironside School, or to the other end of the street, the University of Queensland. St Peters and BBC schools are also within walking distance. Buses and ferries are easily accessible, and the shops and golf are on your doorstep.
On the top level of this family home, there are three separate decks to enjoy your time outdoors or entertaining guests. Summer or winter, day or night, you are wrapped in the views of the city lights beyond the trees, or the southern mountain ranges.
There are also two lounge and dining areas on the top floor. One is arranged for formal settings, and the other for more casual family gatherings. The kitchen forms the heart and common link and between the two, allowing the space and views to make it your favorite room in the house. The north-facing master bedroom, joined with ensuite and walk-in wardrobe complete the upstairs package.
Moving to the lower level, we have the more practical setup, with three bedrooms with built-ins and a study for the family, which can double as a perfect spot for a home office. A third lounge/rumpus room is where the kids can crash out, and leave the mess unrevealed to the guests. Further, a bathroom located for the lower bedrooms means kids and parents will never fight about usage again.
Beyond the rumpus, the fourth, large deck is just one more place you can go, to seek out some peace and quiet.
Street access is a breeze. With one garage located in the front, and 2 more in the lower rear of the house means a workshop for all, and storage for your extended family.
The access to the over-sized, rear yard also allows for a pool if the buyer desires, and the yard has been set up for a dog to roam, so bring Fido and Lassie along. If gardening is your thing, come and tour the back yard first. You will come up with so many ideas that inside will become secondary.
This complete package is wrapped up in air conditioning, although hardly needed with the breezes that flow through this brick house.
You would have no idea this is all just 5km from the CBD.
Don’t miss out, because our owners are downsizing, and the kids have moved out, so it’s time for you to put your roots down here.
