There's a particular kind of quiet confidence to a house that's been built without cutting a single corner, and 9 Garde Street has it in spades. Behind a striking James Hardie linea façade - all clean lines and Queenslander proportion - sits a home that reveals itself slowly, each room offering another reason to linger.
Upstairs, the family and kitchen zone opens generously toward the back deck, where double-glazed bifold doors fold away to blur the line between inside and out. The kitchen itself is the kind you'd actually want to cook in - a 2.4-metre island in honed stone, AEG appliances backed by a decade of warranty, and cabinetry finished with the sort of detail (soft-close everything, dedicated spice drawers, a hidden waste bin) that only shows itself once you live with it. From here, the outlook stretches over the suburb to soft glimpses of the city beyond, best enjoyed from the tiled deck as the light drops in the evening.
The bedrooms have been treated with equal care. The master suite is a retreat in its own right - a fitted dressing room with glass-fronted joinery and a tri-colour touchless mirror, leading through to a private ensuite. The second bedroom follows suit with its own ensuite and walk-in robe, while the remaining four bedrooms are generously proportioned, each with built-in or walk-in storage finished to the same standard. Ceilings run a full 2640mm through both levels, and the spotted gum staircase connecting them is a quiet piece of craftsmanship in its own right.
Downstairs, the home shifts register - with a separate living zone to give a growing family real room to spread out, without ever losing the sense of connection that makes a house feel like home. Bathrooms throughout carry the same considered hand: stone benchtops, black and rose gold tapware, and in-wall cistern toilets that keep things clean, quiet and unfussy.
Outside, the entertaining continues in earnest. A full outdoor kitchen - stainless steel, generously drawered, with a servery window that opens straight to the alfresco - sits ready for long weekend lunches, while freshly turfed lawns and considered landscaping give the front of the home real street presence. There's even a plumbed and wired allowance for a future pool, for whenever that becomes the next chapter.
Comfort has been engineered in, not added as an afterthought - ducted air conditioning across ten zones, whole-home insulation, and double glazing throughout mean the temperature outside rarely finds its way in. For those who like their homes a little smarter, the fingerprint entry, app-controlled lighting, and integrated four-zone Yamaha sound system are the kind of additions that quietly change how a house lives day to day.
This is a home for a family that wants for nothing - built with intention, and ready to be lived in exactly as it is.
