At first glance you might notice what
appears to be an ultra modern architected designed home rising from its tropical green surrounds.
Yet, a closer look will reveal that this home on over 1/2 acre of magic tropical gardens
is so much more than just another exotic modern. The architect has created yet another form
of the much loved Queenslander clad in very durable 21st century materials.
If wide covered verandahs wrapping around 3 sides of the home is one of the hallmarks
of the Queenslander, then they are here in abundance with views & lush green outlooks
guaranteed to capture the heart and soul of those who stand on them. If higher than normal
ceilings and polished hardwood floors are what you would expect to find in an historic original
Queenslander, they too await your pleasure.
These traditional features are complemented by an incredible attention to design and practical,
yet luxurious, living that is way beyond what you would expect to find in a home in this
price range. The quality of finishing is simply superb & the exciting use of hibiscus
tones throughout create a feeling of excitement wherever you turn.
The
home is exquisitely planned with a large double garage
with internal entry and electronically controlled door on the basement level along with
the quarry tiled laundry and 3rd bathroom. A laundry chute delivers the washing from upstairs.
The main entry with its fantastic leadlight feature doors is also on this level along with
a secluded paved BBQ area.
The air conditioned middle level encompasses all the open living areas, a fabulous kitchen
made of solid timber with top of the range stainless steel cooking centre and walk-in pantry,
2 bedrooms with built-in robes and main bathroom plus verandahs for hours of outdoor relaxation.
The kitchen features more of those extraordinarily beautiful Aboriginal art style leadlight
features that seem perfect in this setting as well as a feature timber ceiling with recessed
lighting perfectly positioned right where the chef needs it. There is even a slow combustion
wood fire in the living area for those special winter evenings.
Beautiful timber stairs take you to the upper level - one of those rare master bedrooms
that is large enough to be called a "parents retreat". Here you will find the
exciting use of tropical colours seems to match with the large space and the unusual ceiling
detail. The air conditioned space includes a mirror door walk-in robe as well as the most
beautiful full bathroom ensuite featuring a step-up double spa and separate shower recess.
A double set of glass sliding doors open out through the corner of the bedroom onto the
private upper level verandah. The doors have been carefully positioned so that you can sit
up in bed and look right out to see the sun rise over the ocean.
Then there is the magic of the garden with its bird attracting tropical plants, small
lawns, palms and ferns. Hidden deep in this greenery you will find a Bali style rotunda
next to a fenced and palm fringed, heated outdoor spa designed to recreate the feeling of
bathing in a mountain rock pool.
The list of fabulous and imaginative features is a mile long!! They include such things
as both interior and exterior sensor lights, hot water temperature control system and remote
control security front gate.
This is a home that must be seen and experienced in person to be fully appreciated. Our
Virtual Tour will take you through some of the extra features that are worthy of attention.
