This light and airy 5 bedroom Colonial home (named Claretta) offers a fantastic blend of elegant style and contemporary flair, yet maintains the feeling of a beautiful Queenslander with its golden polished timber floors, breezeways, VJs, high ceilings and French doors.
Surrounded by native trees, a central staircase leads to the wide covered verandah and stained glass front door flanked by lanterns. It's like entering your own private sanctuary. At the rear of the home is a fabulous 9.5m in-ground pool with sun deck and ample grass for the kids to play. Upstairs is the wonderful Wyer and Craw kitchen with its marble and stainless steel bench tops, mirrored glass splash back, double sink, integrated dishwasher, soft closing drawers, Neff 4-burner gas stove, two wall ovens and cupboard space to accommodate a gourmet chef's every need.
The kitchen flows onto a fully covered rear deck (10m x 4m) with Noosa-style privacy louvre screens, just a perfect area for entertaining family and friends. There's an informal dining directly off the kitchen with a beautiful built-in Wyer and Craw sideboard. Another more formal arched dining area for those special dinner parties sits adjacent to the lounge room. A well designed 4-person study/workstation is just off the main living area.
Downstairs the living areas feature honed concrete floors and plush carpet throughout the bedrooms. There's a superb rumpus room with its own kitchenette including stone bench tops, double sinks and fridge. It opens out via bi-folds doors onto the gorgeous pool with privately tree-lined yard and under cover area for the kids play when the weather is inclement. The parent's retreat has double doors opening onto a covered patio and is complimented by the hotel-style ensuite and walk-in-robe. The remote double garage has convenient internal access and is neat as a pin with excellent built-in storage.

It's convenient to all the facilities of the Wilston Village with its award-winning restaurants and cafes, fashion outlets and giftware shops. Also handy to both Windsor and Wilston train stations and bus to the CBD. The Home Zone Centre is a stone's throw away and just a few minute's drive to Newmarket Reading for groceries and other convenience stores. The Royal Brisbane Hospital and bikeways are within walking distance, only 15 minutes to the airport and 3.5km to the CBD.
Regretfully the owners have made the decision to move. This is the one you have waited for, so be quick as it will be sold!
