Carina QLD 4152

A functional design sees two separate interior living spaces open directly onto an expansive alfresco entertaining pavilion overlooking the glass-framed saltwater swimming pool and child/pet-friendly rear lawns.

Meanwhile, a large separate garden studio with high vaulted ceilings offers the bonus of a private retreat for teenagers, guests, or work-from-home professionals. Already plumbed and powered, outstanding scope exists to transform the impressive space into fully self-contained granny-flat-style accommodation with its own bathroom and kitchen.

Back inside the main home, oversized windows and glass doors fill the open-plan kitchen, lounge, and dining areas with natural light. Adjoining this, a huge breakaway living/rumpus room has been purpose-fitted with full block-out blinds to serve as a home theatre if desired.

The striking renovated kitchen features Cosmic Black Granite benchtops, large island breakfast bar, abundant storage and premium appliances including double drawer dishwasher and 900mm European Ilve oven/gas cooktop. A café-style servery window and bar create the perfect indoor-outdoor entertaining experience for any occasion, from casual family barbeques to large-scale parties.

Four carpeted bedrooms each enjoy a bright north-facing aspect, including the master with private ensuite. A showstopping second bathroom boasts floor-to-ceiling tiling, a luxurious full glass rainwater shower, double stone-top vanity and spa bath.

Additional home highlights include reverse cycle air-conditioning; ceiling fans and security/insect screens. Fronted by lush palm trees, the fully fenced property also features a double remote carport, extra space to securely accommodate a jet-ski, boat, or camper; raised herb/veggie gardens, a water tank and storage shed. The fully resurfaced swimming pool comes with a new chlorinator, while a large granite-topped outdoor dining table is included in the sale.

Situated at the high end of the street, this neighbourly address is just metres from express CBD bus stops, bikeways, local cafes, restaurants, and a gourmet IGA supermarket. Walk in 5 minutes to the Carina Leagues and Lawn Bowls Clubs as well as the Clem Jones Fitness/Wellness Centre, which has recently undergone a multi-million-dollar redevelopment including state-of-the-art gym and 50 metre lap pool. Just moments from quality local childcare, state and private schools (including Carina State School, St Martins Primary and San Sisto College), the area also offers excellent chartered bus connections with Brisbane's other premier schools. Westfield Carindale's major retail and cinemas are just a 2-minute drive or 12-minute-walk away; with swift access to the new Minnippi public golf course and Gateway Motorway connecting to the CBD, Airport, and Coast.

This brilliant family home in a quiet yet central pocket of high-growth Carina is an absolute must-view.
