Morning sunshine on the verandah, children playing on the lawns, and afternoons spent swimming and entertaining - this beautiful Hendra home captures the essence of Brisbane family living. Peaceful and private on a 764sqm north-south parcel, the residence offers space to grow together, retreat, and enjoy days outdoors.
Originally part of the Brisbane Racecourse, the grounds hold a piece of local history, with the house constructed in 1930 to embrace a glorious north-east aspect. Extensively renovated and extended over the years, and recently refreshed, the home retains its enduring warmth while offering the comfort and ease of turn-key living.
Sunlight and cooling breezes flow through the indoor-outdoor design, creating a wonderfully inviting atmosphere across spaces that adapt to every season and time of day. Thoughtfully positioned air-conditioning enhances comfort, while an integrated sound system lets you set the mood for quiet evenings or celebrations with family and friends.
Upstairs, living and dining rooms unfold in a flowing arrangement, allowing conversation and connection while leaving room to settle into your own space. Extending effortlessly into the Miele kitchen and out to the front and rear verandahs, here you are invited to follow the sunshine and gather around the table as dinner cooks indoors or on the built-in BBQ. Alfresco entertaining continues below, where lush lawns, a custom-built 20-metre saltwater lap pool and a pool house with a bathroom create a private setting for weekends at home as you watch children play.
A downstairs lounge, rumpus and library provide further space for lively games and movie nights or quiet reading. Five bedrooms, or four plus a study, accompany three additional bathrooms and a three-car carport. Privately positioned upstairs, the master suite offers parents a restful escape, with a window seat, walk-in robe and ensuite completing a home designed to be enjoyed for years to come.
The family appeal continues in this walkable Hendra pocket, with cafes, restaurants, parks and Hendra State School just footsteps from your door. Shop at Racecourse Village or explore the dining and lifestyle precincts of Racecourse Road and Portside Wharf. Premier private schools are only minutes away, while nearby public transport and motorway access make travel easy, with the CBD 8km away and Brisbane Airport a 9-minute drive.
