An elevated position, far-reaching views and almost 40 years of family ownership set the scene for this distinctive Clayfield residence. Set on a north-east-facing 810m² allotment, the home pairs generous interiors with established gardens and a substantial swimming pool. Outlooks extend across the district towards the Glass House Mountains and D'Aguilar Ranges, while cooling breezes and spectacular sunsets add to the appeal of its commanding position.
Renovated and redesigned in 1989 by Robert Collin of Chris Hills Architects, the residence brings thoughtful architectural detail to its classic character. At its heart, a striking rear atrium and feature staircase connect the two levels, drawing light into the home and opening the interiors to views of the gardens. Soaring ceilings, expansive windows and multiple living zones create a sense of space, with room for family life to unfold together or independently.
The versatile floorplan offers four spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, a dedicated study and a choice of living and dining areas. Two fireplaces bring warmth and atmosphere to the living spaces, providing welcoming settings for quiet evenings and larger gatherings. Generous proportions and a strong connection to the outdoors underpin the home's enduring appeal.
Beyond the interiors, mature gardens and landscaped terraces create a private setting for relaxing and entertaining. Hand-cut sandstone walls line the driveway, complemented by free-form stone retaining walls throughout the grounds. A striking bluestone retaining wall frames the pool area, while garden sitting areas offer inviting places to retreat throughout the day. The large swimming pool provides a natural focus for summer afternoons and family gatherings.
Practical features include electric gates, back-to-base security, water tanks, automated irrigation and secure parking for three cars. Together, they complement a home whose character, architectural detail and substantial grounds have been carefully maintained over decades.
Within the Eagle Junction State School catchment and close to St Margaret's Anglican Girls School, St Rita's College and Clayfield College, the address places family convenience within easy reach. Offered after almost four decades, this is an opportunity to secure a distinctive home with panoramic outlooks, remarkable privacy and the space to shape its next chapter.
