A Life by the River, A Home for Every Chapter
Morning breezes off the river, children playing on the lawns, and evenings watching the city lights appear beyond the Woolstores. In Hawthorne’s most tightly held street, this timeless residence offers a setting to savour and space for every chapter of family life. Private and secure behind a 20-metre frontage, the 810sqm parcel brings together the freedoms of large-scale Queensland living and the pleasures of an exclusive riverside address.
Polished timber floors, VJ walls, and ceilings reaching 3 metres preserve the home’s character, while two expansive levels invite life to unfold at its own pace. There is room to gather, space to retreat, and separation that becomes ever more valuable as children become teenagers. Upstairs, stacking sliders open the living and dining areas to dual decks, drawing river breezes through the interiors and extending your gaze across the water to the city skyline. As evening settles, ethanol fireplaces bring warmth, and Sonos speakers set the mood for dinner with friends.
Entertaining moves easily between the European-appointed kitchen and outdoor BBQ kitchen, with the decks offering a beautiful vantage point for drinks, celebrations and quiet moments above the river. Afternoons belong beside the solar-heated pool, where children can swim before dinner, while a sauna and ice bath create a private ritual of relaxation and recovery. Downstairs, French doors connect the entertainment lounge to expansive, flat front lawns. Pour a drink at the wet bar, gather around the billiard table, or take the occasion outside, where space allows games and celebrations that bring everyone together. A kitchenette adds independence for teenagers and flexibility for dual living.
Five bedrooms, or four bedrooms and a media room, accompany three bathrooms and studies on both levels. Three downstairs bedrooms give children their own domain, while two upstairs include a master retreat with extensive joinery, a walk-in robe and an ensuite where a skylit shower and freestanding bath invite you to unwind. A genuine four-car garage with security bollards completes the home.
