Villa Athena is an architectural triumph, designed and built in 2024 by award-winning Cotter Builders. Recognised by Master Builders Queensland in 2025 as Best Individual Home and Best Residential Kitchen, this Mediterranean-inspired residence is the ultimate blend of luxury, functionality, and lifestyle. Set on a sprawling 1,844sqm block with dual street access in the sought-after suburb of Racecourse, this home is as practical for family living as it is breathtaking in design.
Beyond its striking arched entry and gabled façade, Villa Athena reveals soaring 4m ceilings, custom finishes, and spaces designed for effortless living. The master suite is a private retreat, complete with a walk-in wardrobe, motorised blinds, and a spa-inspired ensuite with a freestanding tub and double vanity. Two additional bedrooms, each with their own walk-in wardrobe and built-in desk, are complemented by a dedicated children's retreat or second living space. At the heart of the home is the award-winning kitchen - featuring a 900mm pyrolytic oven, induction cooktop, integrated dishwasher, walk-in pantry with coffee station, and a curved stone island bench that brings a touch of elegance to everyday living.
Adding versatility and value, the property includes a fully self-contained three-bedroom granny flat - ideal for extended family, guests, or rental income. A high clearance shed with loft storage provides ample space for hobbies, toys, or business needs, while bore water and garden taps keep the landscaped grounds lush and green. With side access and a wider-than-standard double garage, practicality is assured across this expansive allotment.
