You will appreciate that style has been artfully combined with substance, with attention to detail obvious. From the soaring 3.2m ceilings and generous spatial dimensions, high end fittings & fixtures, extensive use of American oak flooring & Carrara marble, to exceedingly generous storage, flexible living spaces and that important indoor-outdoor fusion, it's a very special home.
The upper level of the home offers expansive open plan kitchen, dining and living zones that flow seamlessly through oversized stacker doors to the rear deck, with spectacular sweeping views towards the city. It's a space made for living the Paddington lifestyle, made for entertaining, and made for wasting time just taking in the morning sunshine or evening sparkle.
The kitchen is sleek, generous, and equipped to support catering for a crowd with ease. It offers a large butler's pantry, extensive stone benchtops, 5m long Carrara marble splashback and gorgeous pendant lighting. It comes with double Bosch ovens, 900mm gas cooktop, and dishwasher. The deck also provides a built-in BBQ, bar fridge, sink and further cabinetry.
On this level, you will find one of the two master bedrooms this home has to offer, accompanied by a large walk-in wardrobe & deluxe ensuite bathroom. A second bedroom nearby could also be used as a nursery or study. Come downstairs, and there are 3 more double bedrooms, including the second master. All bedrooms have built-in robes, with the master offering a walk-in robe & luxurious ensuite bathroom, as well as a private courtyard deck. The family bathroom on this level has a designer stand-alone stone bath & plenty of space.
The middle level provides a second living room that opens to a deck overlooking the pool. A perfect space amenable as a play room for young kids, or a media room.
Downstairs is the wide double lock up garage, and flexible areas used as a gym, cinema & storage. The backyard focus is the beautiful solar-heated pool surrounded by mature plants to provide privacy, with enough lawn for children to run around.
For peace of mind, there are CCTV cameras, an alarm, and front gate security. Ducted & zoned reverse cycle air-conditioning is installed, although the elevated position ensures excellent cross ventilation & cooling breezes in summer.
The premium location of this home is easy walking distance to the Paddington boutiques & cafes, Suncorp Stadium, and only a few kms to the CBD. Kindergartens, public and private schools are easy and quick to access, and bus routes are close by.
