'As we close the front gate and step into our own private sanctuary, that frantic and busy world out there just fades away', described the owners, when asked why they loved living here. There is a profound, almost physiological impact when walking through each stage of this property. Room by dramatic room, the house offers colour, style and contemporary fittings, whilst retaining the history and tradition of early Brisbane architecture, with natural timber floors, VJ walls, sash windows and French doors. Eventually you reach the upper deck at the rear of the house, and before you is a wonderful and expansive view across Red Hill, Paddington and the mountains beyond. With a second, lower level deck, many options for outdoor living are offered, whether it be an intimate dinner with someone special, or a large gathering with friends that spills over 2 decks, this home will embrace you. And finally, you reach the garden and you have to remind yourself that you are just 3 klms from Brisbane City. This beautiful, tranquil oasis really has to be seen, or better still, experienced. Wrapped in lush tropical foliage, with a beautiful fine leaf lawn, centre stage in this garden is taken by a Teppanyaki Grill that has a unique circular seating area, built with selected stones inside gabion cages. Just another part of an amazing experience at this home. To summarise this property: - Circa 1920 Colonial home - 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms - Multi-level entertaining decks - Beautifully designed gardens - 2 car secure parking - Brisbane City a few minutes drive A home that will grab you by the heartstrings and take you on a magical journey, don't miss it!
