Overview

Luxurious family home... with a touch of San Francisco

Featuring a façade that is reminiscent of San Francisco's iconic Victorian terraces, this architecturally designed and master-built contemporary home promises a luxurious and versatile family lifestyle. Boasting an elevated street position within the peaceful exclusive Norman Park enclave of Poets Corner, the residence enjoys sweeping northern vistas, cooling breezes and easy walking distance to train, bus or ferry transport, local cafes, parkland and elite schools. From the charm of its unique terraced frontage, to the timeless Hamptons-inspired sophistication of the high interior ceilings, Tasmanian oak hardwood floors and French doors and windows, the residence presents an ambience that is both warm and inviting. Affording families ample opportunity to enjoy both large-scale entertaining and much-needed private time, the functional home features no less than four separate living zones; as well as the option to recreate/re-utilise several more! Expansive open-plan kitchen/lounge/dining and the covered alfresco area are accompanied by a formal sitting area, separate media/rumpus or home office (easily large enough to serve as a 5th bedroom); plus a fabulous semi-self-contained poolside entertaining cabana (Think guest quarters, teenagers retreat, "mancave or "she-shed!) Four built-in bedrooms, (three of which are absolutely enormous) have all been positioned together on the upper level. The glorious master features walls of windows, a Juliet balcony and huge walk-in dressing room/ensuite. Why not transform the huge lower level storeroom into a temperature-controlled wine cellar? And, utilise the vast extra space adjacent the 2-car garage (currently a home gym) as a dedicated spot for the table-tennis or pool table, trade workshop or simply secure storage for the jet-skis, bikes and fishing gear! And as for that all-important Queensland outdoor lifestyle, this home offers the perfect, private low-maintenance rear yard. Sit back and relax by the family-sized saltwater swimming pool while the kiddies splash in the wading pool. So many options and so much to love, including: - Designer kitchen with Caesarstone benchtops, 2 Pac cabinetry and Miele appliances - Three stylish bathrooms with Italian porcelain tiling - Ducted air-conditioning; ceiling fans - Exceptional storage throughout - Outdoor integrated speakers - Ducted vacuum - Remote integrated garage for 2 large vehicles plus additional off-street park - Remote driveway gates - Fully fenced property with video intercom and back-to-base alarm system - Recently painted inside and out; established low maintenance gardens; rainwater tank This prestigious address sits just a short walk from train, river ferry or bus transport and 5km to the CBD by road. Also located moments from the locally-renowned "Dovetail on Overend" cafe and a choice of elite schools, including Anglican Church Grammar School, Lourdes Hill College and Norman Park State School (300 metres away), the diverse shopping and lifestyle precincts of Hawthorne, Oxford Street Bulimba and Coorparoo Square are all accessible in minutes. This distinctive, no-expense-spared design in a premier location is truly irresistible. Inspection is a must! This property will go to auction on 16th November unless sold prior.
