26 Francis Street, Corinda

Brilliant architectural design and innovative engineering work together in harmony to create this stunning new home nestled in a quiet bushland cul-de-sac, just 10kms from the Brisbane CBD. Set high on a slope and elevated out to almost touch the tips of the native trees, this is a green-friendly sanctuary that makes the most of its unique bush setting, while at the same time offering space, comfort and an immensely satisfying and rewarding lifestyle. Designed to flow seamlessly across three levels, the intriguing floor plan and extensive use of timber give this house a warm and welcoming personality, while the glass balustrades allow for unimpeded views from key vantage points. To the rear of the property, the Brisbane River can be glimpsed through the trees, while wallabies and other wildlife come to feed and play. Relax in perfect solitude on the deck or the balcony, and it's easy to forget that Corinda Citytrain station is only a short walk away, and that all amenities are close at hand, including St Aidan's Anglican Girls' School.
