Overview

Elevated Timber Pole Home, Ocean Views + Infinity Pool on 1,160m2

This architecturally crafted timber masterpiece is an exceptional piece of real estate. A one of a kind home of this calibre could not be recreated for anything close to its achievable purchase price, offering remarkable value for its next owner. Beautifully maintained and currently owner occupied, it is completely move in ready and perfectly timed for Christmas drinks on the deck while the skyline shimmers in the distance. Spanning three impressive levels, this captivating property showcases thoughtful design and outstanding craftsmanship at every turn. Rumour has it the rooftop delivers a view that is nothing short of spectacular. Once you take ownership, where you choose to sit and sip is entirely up to you, but a little birdie insists the rooftop may be the finest seat in the house. Alas, and of course, we cannot encourage this…if you prefer to unwind indoors, you will have no shortage of inviting spaces to choose from. Multiple indoor and outdoor living zones allow you to relax wherever the mood leads, from the prosecco bar with its northern outlook, to spacious decks on both levels, and a tranquil garden setting at the front. Homes at elevation with flat, usable land are incredibly hard to come by. Here, you have exactly that: a secure, level lawn perfect for children or pets to play safely. The lower level adds further versatility with its own tool room and bathroom, making it ideal for hobbies, storage or a workshop for all the toys. Privately positioned at the end of a long driveway, even the ascent feels like the day is melting away and that home is just ahead. Set high in Smithfield with commanding, never to be built out views extending to the Great Barrier Reef, this unique residence has been lovingly cared for by its current owners. Crafted from beautiful timber and enhanced with modern comforts, the home is a genuine work of art that must be seen to be fully appreciated. The flat front yard remains one of its most outstanding assets, a feature very rarely found in elevated homes. Property Highlights: • Unique multi level design offering exceptional separation and space • Infinity style swimming pool with glass fencing • Three spacious bedrooms, all with split system air conditioning • Never to be interrupted ocean views from every level • Top floor retreat with private living area, deck and ensuite • Beautifully maintained timber floors • Well appointed kitchen with breakfast bar, and of course, views! views! views! • Flat, usable land with new retaining wall and aluminium fencing • 6.6 kW solar system plus 6.5 kW battery • Multiple indoor and outdoor entertaining zones • Internal laundry plus a third bathroom on the lower level • Undercover car accomodation with plenty of room for utes and toys to park, plus there is off street parking options • Surrounded by well established homes • Generous and private 1,160 sqm block • Only minutes to the Smithfield mountain bike trails • Close to JCU, Smithfield Shopping Centre, schools and public transport 31 Bena Street is a rare blend of craftsmanship, elevation and lifestyle. Attending the next inspection is an absolute must. Private inspections are welcomed and encouraged. Video walkthroughs available on request. Open every weekend until SOLD.
