Nestled at the end of a picturesque, tree-lined cul-de-sac, this grand modern Queenslander seamlessly blends timeless elegance with a modern family-focused design. Originally crafted by Garth Chapman in 1995 and thoughtfully extended in 2005, the home showcases traditional architecture, a flexible floorplan and meticulous landscaping, offering a lasting testament to quality craftsmanship.
Brimming with character and rich heritage detail, the home boasts warm hardwood floors, high ceilings, VJ walls, fretwork, French doors and timber framed sashless windows - all anchored by a striking butterfly staircase creating a grand sense of arrival. Expansive wraparound verandas capture cool breezes; the perfect vantage point to admire lush gardens and the mountain views beyond.
The heart of the home is a spacious country kitchen, accented by character features, pressed metal splashback, period fittings and modern fixtures. Designed for family functionality and effortless entertaining, the well-appointed kitchen features a large breakfast island, ample storage and bench space plus a freestanding 900mm oven with 5-burner gas cooktop. With seamless flow between indoor living areas and outdoor entertainment spaces, the kitchen is connected to multiple dining options, including a private deck - perfect for enjoying a morning coffee while embracing the tranquil surrounds.
The home's versatile floor plan offers an array of thoughtfully curated living, dining, and entertaining spaces, encouraging an easy indoor-outdoor family lifestyle. With multiple living areas, seven generously sized bedrooms, a separate study, teen retreat or media room plus 2.5 bathrooms, there is no shortage of space for everyone. Whether it's cozying up by the wood-burning fireplace on cooler evenings or enjoying sunny afternoons by the sparkling inground pool, with breathtaking sunsets as your backdrop, this home effortlessly blends comfort with relaxation.
The lush landscaping ensures absolute privacy while attracting vibrant birdlife like rainbow lorikeets and black cockatoos; a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. Adding to the property's appeal, the downstairs level features two expansive multipurpose rooms, a powder room, and a large laundry - offering further flexibility for guests or extended family.
Situated in a highly sought-after enclave of 'Samford Downs', this property enjoys a peaceful, leafy setting just minutes from Samford Village; the perfect balance of tranquility and practicality. With town water, NBN internet, and a wealth of local amenities including quality schools, shops, cafes, parks, and vibrant community events, families will find everything they need close by.
