Picture-Perfect, Private Mountain Home in the Iconic Suburb of Bardon Sitting proudly on a large 875 m2 allotment in one of Bardon's most sought-after locations, this unique, architecturally designed home stands out from the crowd. Traditional and contemporary features are seamlessly integrated in this fully-renovated Queenslander to create a luxurious blend of sophisticated Tasmanian Oak and timeless 19th-century refinement. Features include graceful plaster cornices, restored timber doors & casement windows with brass hardware, hardwood floors and high ceilings throughout. A peaceful sanctuary lies hidden beyond the home's hand-crafted entry gates. Level timber decking, which provides easy access from the street to the front door, wraps around a manicured Japanese-style garden. Unwind in this private green space overlooking a pond with gentle sounds from the waterfall feature. Elegant character features in the formal entry lounge highlight the Queenslander's original architecture. These features are tastefully retained throughout the original section with kitchen, dining, bath and powder rooms, plus three generously sized bedrooms. The home's thoughtful floor plan assures privacy between bedrooms and entertaining areas with the bedroom wing located off a separate hall beyond decorative glass and timber French doors. Large windows in the master bedroom frame a picturesque view of the rear garden designed around a grand native fig tree. A sumptuous en-suite and two further rooms with built-in storage complete the bedroom wing. This clever design provides options to be close to young children or create an expansive parent's retreat. The lounge and formal dining spaces of the original Queenslander flow seamlessly into a bright open-plan kitchen featuring Miele appliances, floor-to-ceiling cabinetry and custom joinery for displaying treasured pieces. Well-positioned at the centre of the home's entrance level, the kitchen opens out to a stunning rear living and entertaining area. Soaring 5-metre-high ceilings create a truly impressive space with just under 50 square metres for entertaining, a mezzanine floor and floor-to-ceiling frameless windows offering stunning, uninterrupted green views to the hills of Mt Coot-tha. While expansive and open, the home's established garden and borrowed green views cloister this space creating the privacy of a luxury mountain hideaway - just 7 km to Brisbane's CBD! Relax with a quiet drink after a long day to enjoy this opulent space or entertain a large number of guests year-round. An ingenious pully system on the floor-to-ceiling windows allows multiple panes to glide apart simultaneously, creating a lavish, internal deck from their generous 1.8-metre opening. Fully sealed against the elements, simply close the windows to enjoy nature's splendour year-round. Separation of living is key to this beautiful home's design. The home's upper level not only offers a mezzanine but another separate space that makes working from home a very pleasant experience. While the lower level has a further two bedrooms, a bathroom, laundry and yet another internal lounge providing an ideal teenagers' retreat or a quiet sanctuary for guests. A large, external deck on the lower level flows effortlessly out to the immaculate private garden. With generous spaces for both lounge and dining, this deck is perfect for entertaining on the lawn under the cool shade of the garden's established fig.
