Nestled near the base of Mt Coot-tha and occupying a vast block of land in a quiet cul-de-sac, this extraordinary, architect designed residence offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a private bushland setting, in a convenient urban location.
The property is positioned on the southwest corner of an expansive 3800m2 block and is perfectly oriented towards the northerly aspect and tranquil leafy views. The result is a home that feels exceptionally tranquil and private – from inside no neighbouring dwellings are visible, only uninterrupted views of the natural landscape.
Designed by award winning architect Paul Uhlmann, the clean, linear design takes inspiration from mid-century modern architecture. It feels unpretentious, yet effortlessly sophisticated and timeless.
The open plan kitchen, dining and lounge room is a beautiful space encased in glass – perfectly showcasing the leafy surroundings. The internal living areas flow seamlessly to a large covered terrace, lush flat lawn and swimming pool. It’s a design that is both strikingly contemporary and functional; the layout is ideal for young children and allows effortless, indoor/outdoor family living that will be appreciated by all ages.
The entertainer’s kitchen features a combination of stone and stainless-steel benchtops, quality appliances including a 5-burner gas cooktop and V-Zug oven, integrated drinks fridges and an ice machine.
A circular study acts as a buffer between the main living areas and the casual rumpus/media room, creating a clever separation of living and entertaining spaces. There is also a powder room on this level.
Accommodation is on the upper level and the Master suite is privately positioned at one end. This generously sized bedroom has a private balcony and extensive glazing creates the serene sensation of sleeping in the treetops.
There is a large walk-in wardrobe and a luxurious ensuite, including an open-air shower surrounded by lush vegetation.
The other three bedrooms each have built-in cupboards and they share the main bathroom. There is also a separate powder room and a family-sized laundry on this level, which is conveniently connected to the oversized double lock-up garage.
There is ducted air-conditioning throughout, yet the orientation and window placement means there’s often a cooling breeze. It has solar and a security system with remote access. There is a secure parking for two cars plus an abundance of storage space and room for more vehicles to park off street.
The home enjoys a superb location within 6km of the CBD, and yet close to the beautiful Botanic Gardens and Mt Coot-tha’s popular picnic grounds and forest trails. Prestigious Stuartholme School and Brisbane Boys College are within easy reach and it is in the catchment for Rainworth State School. The café precinct of Rosalie Village is conveniently close, as are the shopping hubs of Toowong Village and Paddington Central. This is a highly sought after lifestyle location and an exceptionally rare opportunity. Do not delay an inspection.
