Overview

First Class Living in the Heart of Paddington

Situated in one of Paddington’s most prestigious locations, this magnificent home exemplifies luxurious inner-city living. The spacious, multi-level property has been masterfully constructed and expertly designed to ensure it capitalises on its position and magnificent city views, without sacrificing a coveted indoor/outdoor connection. The charming and timeless character street appeal has been preserved and a dedicated entry vestibule adds an air of sophistication. There is a large home office located near the entrance, perfect as a work from home space or as an art studio. A large barn door conceals another room that has been converted into a peaceful library, but would also make an ideal media room. The rear of the home opens to reveal an expansive lounge, dining and kitchen area, with soaring double-height ceilings. This is an impressive space. A gas fireplace with rough-hewn sandstone is a striking, textural feature. The room is flooded with light and captures breezes thanks to a perfect northerly aspect. Multiple sliding doors retract to create a seamless connection with the swimming pool, flat lawn, garden, travertine tiled terrace and BBQ area. It’s the perfect layout for both sophisticated parties and for enjoying a laidback Queensland lifestyle. The kitchen has a Carrara topped island bench, high-end V-Zug appliances, Zip tap and a spacious butler’s pantry. There is also a guest bedroom with ensuite on this level, plus a laundry and powder room, also boasting marble bench tops. Upstairs, a lovely sitting area opens onto a deck that enjoys sweeping views across Paddington and the entire city skyline. A bar and fridge makes it easy to drink in the views any time of the day. Another lounge is great for kids of all ages to relax, watch TV or play games. Walking into the opulent Master suite is a 6-star hotel experience – fashionistas will love the huge, walk-in robe/dressing room and there’s an abundance of space in the beautifully appointed ensuite. There are another three bedrooms on this level, all with built-ins and they share the well-appointed main bathroom. On the lower level, a climate-controlled wine cellar is large enough for wine tasting parties and you can burn off the calories in the home gym, complete with infrared sauna. There is parking for multiple vehicles and exceptional storage throughout the home. There is ducted and zone air-conditioning and numerous, high-tech features including security cameras with remote monitoring. This is a first class property, in a first class location – just 3km to the CBD. Close to shops, cafes and excellent public and independent schools. Don’t miss this opportunity to secure your forever home in the heart of lifestyle friendly Paddington.
