Rainforest Retreat meets Inner City Chic on 921sqm
Rarely do expansive 921sqm offerings of blue chip property present themselves, but when they do savvy buyers know that hesitation only leads to frustration.
Located in a highly sought after blue chip St Lucia address, this unique property will be sold on or before the day.
This 'Jewel in the Forest' can be found perched upon an elevated and gently sloping 921m2 parcel. Nestled amongst soaring trees abundant with birdlife, this home has been exquisitely renovated to exacting standards by an award winning designer and landscaper.
Whether approaching down the sandstone steps to the granite paved entry, or standing under the majestic Hoop Pine and Poinciana amidst the dry watercourse at the back, it is easy to forget that this idyllic setting is just a stone's throw from the University of Queensland, Citycat and bus services, not to mention an abundance of restaurants and cafes and all that the inner west has to offer!
Originally built in 1955, the home presents as 'new' after an immaculate 2011 renovation showcasing creative design with stylish interiors.
Offering two bedrooms, both featuring bay windows and one with private deck, together with a light filled study or third bedroom opening through French doors to the granite paved terrace and pergola, the layout is both seamless and comfortable.
No expense has been spared with this considered refurbishment.
The designer kitchen, featuring Caesar Stone and stainless steel benches, high end fittings and added luxuries such as instant boiling/filtered water, induction cook top and outdoor grill and wok is truly a delight.
The contemporary bathroom is the perfect transfusion of tranquility and contemporary charm, with its massive rain shower head, massaging pebble floor, heated towel rails and a floor to ceiling glass wall that allows you to enjoy the rainforest views whilst retaining privacy.
The uncluttered open plan living space flows onto the generous entertainment deck boasting a peaceful green outlook, effectively doubling the space. Draw down the striped carnival awnings and this area becomes an outdoor room, perfect for al fresco dining and relaxation on those balmy summer evenings.
The extensive landscaping has only been upstaged by an extraordinary gazebo platform, reverentially dubbed 'The Cathedral'. You'll understand why when you visit!
