Enjoying a remarkable combination of distinctive architecture, generous proportions and sweeping city views, this contemporary residence has been designed with modern family life at its heart. Perched on the crest of the Farrell Street ridgeline, the home captures sweeping views across Brisbane's city skyline and surrounding bushland.
Built in 2010, this contemporary residence brings together architectural scale, natural light and a highly considered approach to family living. With a strong yet understated presence, the design incorporates clean architectural lines paired back with a palette of bluestone, polished concrete, timber and crisp white finishes.
Across two generous levels, soaring ceilings and a dramatic double-height void create an immediate sense of volume, while expansive glazing and louvres draw natural light and breezes throughout. The main living spaces are positioned across the lower level, where a generous lounge, dedicated dining zone and separate sitting room provide both connection and separation. At the centre, a streamlined Corian kitchen with butler's pantry and substantial island bench is designed for everyday family life and easy entertaining.
A strong connection to the outdoors defines the rear of the home. Floor-to-ceiling glass opens the interiors to a covered outdoor room with built-in barbecue and cabinetry, level lawn, swimming pool and pool house, creating a private setting that works naturally across the seasons. Upstairs, the accommodation provides generous bedrooms, a study and additional rumpus or breakout space providing flexibility for the growing family.
The master suite takes full advantage of the home's elevated position, opening to a private balcony with an impressive outlook across the city skyline. An oversized ensuite and walk-in robe complete the retreat, while the home's multiple living spaces, excellent storage and thoughtful separation reinforce its practical family credentials.
Positioned on a generous 607m² allotment, the home sits within a quiet, one-way street surrounded by established greenery and bushland. Beyond the architecture, this family-focused setting has become one of Ashgrove's most sought-after pockets, valued for its peaceful surrounds, proximity to leading schools, parkland and the everyday conveniences of Ashgrove.
