Overview

Parkside Prestige Opposite Sherwood Arboretum

Bathed in natural light, the interiors are defined by soaring ceilings and expansive walls of glass that frame verdant outlooks and dissolve the boundary between indoors and out. The central living domain, anchored by a striking fireplace, unfolds effortlessly into the dining area and an impressive covered entertaining terrace. Designed for year-round enjoyment, this space is enhanced by a custom stone pizza oven and extends gracefully to manicured lawns, a shimmering pool, and the riverfront beyond. At the heart of the home, a chef's kitchen of generous proportions combines form and function with ease. A substantial stone island serves as both a gathering point and workspace, complemented by bespoke cabinetry and a suite of premium appliances, including dual ovens and a gas cooktop. Overhead, a skylight invites natural illumination, while seamless sight lines to the outdoor entertaining areas ensure a constant connection to family and guests. Accommodation comprises five beautifully appointed bedrooms, thoughtfully arranged to balance privacy and versatility. The upper-level primary suite offers a tranquil retreat, capturing elevated views across the treetops to the river, and is complete with a walk-in wardrobe and an elegant ensuite featuring a spa bath and twin vanities. Three additional bedrooms enjoy leafy aspects and built-in storage, while a self-contained lower-level retreat provides ideal flexibility for guests or teenagers, accompanied by its own bathroom and a multipurpose living, office or media space. Practicality is seamlessly integrated throughout, with a well-appointed laundry, extensive storage, ducted and split-system air conditioning, plantation shutters, a garage with workshop, and additional off-street parking. Outdoors, the grounds unfold as a private riverside sanctuary. Established trees and sculpted hedging frame sweeping lawns, while a dedicated vantage point by the water invites quiet reflection. The pool and surrounding entertaining zones evoke a resort-inspired ambience-an offering seldom found within suburban Brisbane. Perfectly positioned, the residence enjoys immediate access to the Sherwood Arboretum, with local cafés, boutiques, transport and esteemed schools all within close reach, and the Brisbane CBD just a short commute away. Opportunities of this scale and calibre are exceedingly rare. This is a residence where architectural distinction, an address, and an exceptional riverfront lifestyle converge. This family is now ready to move on from their cherished family home that has crafted an album of memorable life moments and pass it on to the next.
