This timeless family home high gracing 1 hectare of private easy care grounds in a quiet, picturesque setting surrounded by natural bushland in this beautiful and affluent semi-rural community just 15km from the Brisbane CBD is the very final word in stately near city living.
Offering the best of both country and city lifestyles, the lovingly maintained property complete with floodlit tennis court, in-ground pool, spa and wine cellar is a spacious and tranquil oasis so close to everything.
Make your way up the meandering driveway past a treescape of eucalypts and established front gardens to the impressive family residence with its wrap-around verandahs, bay windows and feature gable in an elevated north-facing position at the top of the allotment.
The front entrance with its distinctive stained glass windows opens into the welcoming foyer of the elegant home with its soaring 3m high ceilings, polished timber floorboards, wall sconces and decorative wall paneling.
In the sun-filled north-east wing is the open plan kitchen and main living room opening onto the large entertainer's deck for optimal indoor/outdoor living.
