DWELLING:
An architecturally imposing executive retreat; you’ll feel isolated yet centrally located, "Gillcrest" delivers over 400m2 of light-filled, expansive living zones over two levels; with dedicated spaces for every family member & occasion. Tuscan-inspired grandeur in design & lavish detailing is evident throughout; with the home exhibiting sophistication & luxury, in surrounds of grand-scale proportions. Bathed in natural light & highlighted by the prominent use of glass in the upper level, the spectacular outlook to the Lockyer Valley is captured from the open plan kitchen & living areas and magnificent timber deck.
GARDEN:
Serenely situated in immaculately landscaped grounds of 2,995m2 (almost 3/4 acre), you will be immediately intrigued & impressed by the meticulous attention to detail in planning this private escape. A paved driveway culminates in a circular design with central water feature; an enormous 8.7m x 3.5m garage, double carport plus an additional garage, ensures vehicular accommodation is more than adequate. Framed by privacy hedging, arbours, mature trees & walls of greenery & seasonal colour, the solar heated, salt water, inground swimming pool, with a pool-side dining area & heated outdoor spa is the perfect setting to entertain or unwind. At the rear is an incredible alfresco & courtyard area, enhanced by further hedging, complementary planting & water feature, with teasing glimpses of the gorgeous valley beyond.
LOCATION:
Tucked away from the main thoroughfare of Highfields, the residence is privately positioned back from the road, in a secluded section of Reis Road East, with established homes on either side. Although it may feel like a private retreat, it's just a few minutes to all the conveniences of Highfields. Various schooling options are available including Highfields State School & Highfields State Secondary College as well as Mary MacKillop Catholic College and several child care facilities. Several cafes, Plaza Circle & Highfields Village Shopping Centres are all within easy reach as are numerous sporting facilities including the Highfields Fitness & Recreation Centre and the Cultural Centre.
