Overview

'RUARDEAN' - Esteemed Riverfront Acreage Estate

Widely regarded as the spectacular premier estate within a prestigious waterfront enclave. 'Ruardean' is an extraordinary private acreage homestead on the banks of the Brisbane River. Positioned at the end of an exclusive cul de sac, this 1.01ha estate sits unopposed to flood-risk atop the elevated position on the block. With the offering gently sweeping down to the water encompassing more than 118m of direct river frontage. Steeped in a history dating back to circa 1889, with associations to an esteemed barrister and district court judge, it is now time for a new custodian to enjoy this elegant Federation-era Queenslander and surrounding landscaped grounds. Significant investment has gone into rejuvenating and restoring the original main house, transforming it into a sprawling, classic Queenslander of exceptional quality and livability. Showcasing all the appealing features of a bygone era, from lofty ceilings and stunningly restored solid timber doors to sash windows and functional fireplaces, across a single-level floorplan where all rooms feature a view and/or access to the soft English garden-inspired outdoors. At least five bedrooms, as well as a study, wrap around a central country-style kitchen and dining space which flows out onto a saltwater swimming pool and entertaining deck. A separate living room, previously the ballroom, leads into an exquisite primary suite complete with sun deck which suits a daybed, potential adjacent walk-in wardrobe, ensuite with clawfoot tub, and French doors to the pool. A secondary large residence, adjacent to the main house, may be utilised for business purposes or as accommodation for extended family, friends or an au pair. 'Fig Tree Cottage' is a completely separate cottage which includes an expansive living/dining area, generously-sized bedroom, and a kitchenette/laundry. Both residences are serviced by a three-bay carport, while a powered eight-car garage nestled underneath the main house to the rear, could also be used as a gymnasium, workshop or entertaining area. The space consists of 64m2 of lockup area and 64m2 of high bay open ended area suitable for large caravans/motorhomes or boats. There is space next to 'Fig Tree Cottage' for another double carport.
