There are homes that impress… and then there are those that stay with you long after you leave. Privately positioned and architecturally designed to embrace its elevated escarpment setting, 2/1E James Street is a home defined by scale, breathtaking views and quiet sophistication, where every element has been carefully considered and every space feels intentionally connected to its surroundings. Set well back from the street and surrounded by beautifully established gardens, the sense of arrival is immediate. A tree-lined concrete driveway guides you in, framed by deciduous pear trees and manicured grounds, before the home reveals itself, offering glimpses of the escarpment beyond and setting the tone for what lies ahead. Step inside and you are welcomed by a breathtaking double-height foyer, where natural light pours through expansive glazing and a striking floating staircase anchors the space. It is a refined introduction that draws your eye outward, offering an immediate connection to the landscape and a preview of the outlook that unfolds throughout the home. Designed to follow the natural contours of the land, the home unfolds across multiple levels while still offering the ease of main-level living. At its heart, the main living area is both expansive and inviting, with soaring ceilings, beautiful blackbutt flooring and a seamless connection between kitchen, dining and living. A stunning tiled feature wall anchors the space, complemented by floating illuminated cabinetry and an ethanol mood-flame fireplace, creating a warm and sophisticated focal point for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is a true centrepiece - a sleek galley design is enhanced by soft-close joinery, a butler's pantry and a striking blackbutt island benchtop paired with a quartzite rear bench. Premium Neff appliances, including double ovens, an induction cooktop and dishwasher, are seamlessly integrated, as well as a Vintec drinks fridge, all positioned to take in the outlook while you cook, gather and entertain. Flowing effortlessly from this central space, the home opens out to an expansive north-east facing deck where the views take centre stage. Stretching across the escarpment and beyond, the outlook captures rolling landscape, shifting light and distant horizons that transform throughout the day. Designed for both entertaining and quiet moments, the space is complemented by a built-in outdoor bench with sink and integrated fridge, while a raised decking platform houses a private sauna, pre-wired and engineered for a future drop-in spa, creating your own retreat immersed in nature. Accommodation is privately arranged to offer both connection and separation. The master suite is positioned as a peaceful retreat, complete with a walk-in robe featuring a dedicated dressing station, along with a beautifully appointed ensuite. Upstairs, the additional bedrooms are serviced by a central bathroom and a retreat space, ideal for family living with breathtaking views. The lower level offers a fully self-contained guest area with its own living space plus another fantastic area for your own private gym room plus kitchenette and bathroom, perfect for extended family, visitors or flexible living arrangements. Did we mention the wine cellar? A great space to slow things down, whether it's storing a growing collection or simply enjoying a quiet moment with a good bottle. The potential on this level is limitless. Across the home, multiple living areas provide flexibility for every stage of life, while high ceilings, expansive glazing and carefully selected finishes ensure the connection to the landscape is never lost. Subtle inclusions throughout the home, including heated towel rails and quality security screens, add an extra layer of comfort. Outside, the property continues to impress. The grounds have been meticulously landscaped to create a series of usable and inviting outdoor spaces, from the striking pin oak at the front of the home to a thriving collection of fruiting plants as well as a dedicated fire pit area with a built-in pizza oven creates the perfect setting for relaxed evenings under the stars. A double lock-up garage with epoxy fleck flooring, storage and internal access connects seamlessly to the main level, while a substantial approx. 14m x 7m shed with workshop, 15-amp power and three-phase supply provides exceptional versatility plus loads of room to bring the caravan or boat. Additional lockable storage under the home ensures there is space for everything, as well as a 10.45kW solar system, along with approx. 40,000L of plumbed rainwater and an automated watering system servicing the garden. Positioned at the far eastern end of James Street, this tightly held pocket offers privacy just minutes from Range Shopping Centre, Picnic Point and quality Eastside schools, all within easy reach of the Toowoomba CBD. The property forms part of a simple, self-managed two-lot community titles scheme with shared driveway access, and benefits from NBN fibre to the premises. This is more than a home, it is a place to retreat, to entertain, and to experience a level of living that is rarely offered and even more rarely replicated. Once you arrive, it is something you will not want to leave… and a view you will never tire of. Prepare to fall in love! General rates: approx. $2,107.68 gross per half year
