Nareke Manor - Landmark Riverfront Trophy Home – 3923m2

Considered one Brisbane's finest Riverfront mansions "Nareke" is a residence of impeccable quality and timeless distinction. Nestled on a massive 3923m2 flood free parcel, it comes with a pedigree few Brisbane properties can boast - a site which once hosted General Douglas MacArthur's home during the Pacific campaign.
Built in 1996, "Nareke", has only had two owners, both, who maintained it to the highest standards. The Victorian style mansion is considered one of the finest prestige properties in Brisbane with three storeys of living space totalling 1118m2 under roof, including two fully self-contained guest quarters. A mere 2.5km from the CBD, this trophy home sits secluded at the end of a cul-de-sac, nestled in its own private rainforest.
"Nareke" epitomises the essence of a truly Queensland lifestyle with multiple living areas leading out to timber decks, surrounded by ornate aluminium powder-coated cast decorative panels. On the entry level of the house are the living areas, including a formal lounge and formal dining room which houses one of three fireplaces in the home. These living areas lead out onto decks offering water views and capturing cool river breezes. Also on this level is a circular kitchen with granite counter tops, a gas Gaggenau cooktop and oven, as well as a new Miele dishwasher. This is next to a casual family room with its own deck and beautiful atrium, creating an illusion of treehouse living. Also accessed on this level, joined by a large deck, is a separate fully self-contained double story guest quarters, with living, kitchen and bathroom.
As expected in a home of such grandeur, the superb timber staircase is a statement piece on entry and leads to the upper level accommodating four of the home's seven bedrooms, a retreat and a study/library. The master bedroom on this level opens out on to a veranda and has a luxurious marble ensuite with spa bath. While the sprawling house has a gracious, Queenslander feel, it was designed and engineered to the highest standards including rendered core filled concrete blocks, galvanised steel and oversized steel beams.
It is finished in a classic style with Carrara marble tiled and carpeted floors, polished timber (some of which is recycled timber from the old Bretts wharf) ornate ceilings and cornices throughout.
The lower level of the home, adjoining the pool, includes a fully serviced guest apartment, with full kitchen, living area, 2 bedrooms, bathroom and laundry. This also accommodates disabled access with a chairlift. There is provision on this level for a temperature controlled 2000 bottle wine cellar. Like a luxury hotel, it has piped music throughout and an incredible five-storey viewing tower with a roof dome which opens up to the night sky. This also doubles as access to the roof for maintenance. All the buildings are well above flood levels and a pontoon, which can accommodate a vessel in excess of 30 metres, is anchored by a marine grade chain in case of future flood.
There are manicured gardens and a 23-metre gas-heated swimming pool which overlooks the Brisbane River. The pool has an automatic cleaner and an outdoor shower services this area.
The roof has been recently replaced, new chimney pots installed and it has been freshly painted inside and out. Within the grounds is a garden shed, boathouse, two workshops and an area suitable for use as a gym or a man cave. The property has two-street frontage and there is future development potential, as it is zoned for five levels of units.
It is within the Brisbane State High School catchment area, opposite the Queensland University which can be accessed via the Eleanor Schonell Bridge and close to the City Cat terminal.
