One of Brisbane's finest boutique 'rural-residential' estates is the idyllic setting for this exceptional family residence. Deriving inspiration from classical European architecture, the Master Builder-Designer has created a generous and elegant home with extraordinary entertaining and recreational facilities.
Uninhibited by neighbours and the hustle and bustle of suburbia, the mountain top location affords breathtaking, panoramic views over Brisbane, the D'Aguilar Ranges and beyond, to the islands of Moreton Bay and North Stradbroke Island. A sense of anticipation builds as you drive along the gently winding driveway to reach the automated security gate, behind which reveals an elevated, terraced and sun-filled citrus orchard. Beyond, a circular cobble-stoned drive ensconced by manicured gardens await, and that sense of anticipation is replaced by a feeling you have arrived on the threshold of a very special place.
The gracious welcome continues with an impressive foyer and entry hall leading directly to the spacious light-filled heart of the home. Open plan in design, the expanse comprises an impressive provincial style kitchen, and generously appointed lounge and dining room. Showcasing 14-foot ceilings, a wood burning fireplace, oversized windows and French doors, this is where family and friends come together to share meals, conversation and quality time. Whether it is casual family dining or more elaborate entertaining with extended family and friends, these combined living areas offer the size and scope to host any social event.
The provincial style kitchen is strategically positioned between the indoor and outdoor entertaining areas. A large pantry, ample storage and comprehensive list of integrated appliances, the kitchen is well equipped to support entertaining on any scale. If the kitchen is the heart of a home, then the central oak island bench must be the heartbeat. Substantial in size, it not only provides generous bench space for cooking and serving, but it easily accommodates busy breakfasts, casual coffee catch-ups or afternoon homework.
The living areas open to an expansive entertaining terrace and the most spectacular views across the grounds and beyond. Flooded with early sunlight, lazy Sunday mornings here with the family are so comfortable they risk stretching out far beyond brunch. From the terrace there is direct access to resort style facilities including the tiled 16.7m x 4m swimming pool and championship North-South tennis court with lighting. The gorgeous gazebo, positioned adjacent to the tennis court, provides yet another delightful option for entertaining on a more intimate scale.
The main house also boasts a fully equipped media room, 2 studies, 4 generous bedrooms, 3 beautiful bathrooms, 2 outdoor showers, laundry/mudroom facilities, 3 car garage and abundant storage options.
The family oriented layout sees the master suite located in a private wing. It has a northerly aspect over the D'Aguilar Ranges and enjoys 'His & Her' walk in robes and an elegant ensuite. An additional 3 bedrooms are generously sized. One bedroom is located off the master wing and has access to a nearby separate bathroom. The remaining 2 bedrooms are positioned on the southern wing and share a central two-way bathroom with double vanity.
Without doubt, one of the most versatile features of this property is the fully self-contained, two-storey guest cottage. Located across the cobbled drive from the main house, it serves as a generously sized granny-flat, au-pair suite or separate accommodation for adult children living at home; a welcoming convenience for any guest. The ground floor of the guest cottage comprises kitchen, laundry, carport, workshop, porch, and north-facing deck, while upstairs includes a bathroom and 2 large bedrooms, with an additional study/nursery or third bedroom.
This is more than just a spectacular property ? it is a lifestyle. It is part of a gated rural residential estate which offers a range of unique and exclusive facilities, backing onto thousands of acres of hiking and riding trails through the D'Aguilar National Park to Lake Manchester, Mt Crosby and Mt Glorious. In this part of the world, native Australian flora and fauna is often heard, and then seen, to be believed.
The residence reflects the sophistication and elegance of European architecture, while offering a highly functional floor plan for contemporary family living and entertaining. Here, children can roam, explore, and live large without the restrictions of suburbia. Absolute peace and privacy is enjoyed in abundance in this prestigious enclave. Just 20km from the Brisbane CBD, 30 minutes from Brisbane Airport and within easy range of Brisbane's finest public and private schools, this property affords the freedom of the ultimate rural-residential lifestyle without compromising on city and urban convenience, and presents an opportunity to participate in the thriving Brookfield and Upper Brookfield communities.
Don't miss this opportunity to secure a property of distinction, unparalleled privacy, and an enviable lifestyle.
