Clayfield

In the beautiful Kalinga precinct, admired for its tightly-held properties passed down through generations of the same families, is this timeless Queenslander. Traditional 1920's period features have been enhanced by modern renovations to create a sprawling family home in the popular Eagle Junction State School catchment with easy access to some of Brisbane's top private schools. This substantial 810sqm property is on a quiet no-through road in a little-known pocket of Clayfield, only metres from heritage-listed Kalinga Park and 8kms to the CBD. White picket fencing and mature gardens frame a gorgeous wide veranda, which makes for a beautiful and welcoming entrance. Impeccable standards in both design and style are consistent across the double-storey interior which offers the space and floorplan for a family wanting room to grow and play. A large open-plan living, dining and kitchen upper level zone extends to an enormous rear deck overlooking the resort-style 12m swimming pool, firepit and large, usable lawn. It is a flawless layout offering any number of areas for entertaining a stream of visitors on warm summer days. Chat to friends sharing a drink at the servery while you prepare meals in the well-equipped kitchen with its stone benchtops, induction cooktop, dual ovens, integrated dishwasher and walk-in pantry. Business matters can be attended to in the private study, while nearby is a master bedroom with deck access, an ensuite and walk-in wardrobe. Three of the five bedrooms are on the lower level where there's also a second living area, ideal as a teenager's retreat or kids' rumpus room, which opens out via bifold doors to the second entertaining deck.
