11-15 Kidston Street, Ascot, Qld 4007

'Arden' is an exceptional property in an elevated Ascot position capturing Moreton Bay breezes and extensive unobstructed views across Ascot and towards Mount Glorious.  It remains one of Brisbane's most tightly held and prized properties given it's architectural pedigree, location and quality.  Rarely available, this elite property has only changed hands six times in it's 112 year history. It is unique within the Brisbane and South East Queensland market.

Originally designed in 1912 by AB Wilson, this Heritage listed property is a rare example of Federation brick and tile construction in Brisbane and has been extensively renovated and extended in 2022/2023.  Nothing more needs to be done.

With five-bedrooms, two studies and a library, five and a half bathrooms, this three storey residence has a long list of outstanding features.  Exclusive and private, the property will fulfil all the needs of a modern executive family given it's proximity to private schools, the city and with easy access the airport.

The home has an impressive private entry with sweeping pathways past mature gardens leading to the front veranda with original silky oak front door with leadlight windows.  Soaring 3.5m ceilings on both ground and second floors plus original silky oak staircase exudes presence and grace.  The heritage house retains all original features including skirtings, ceiling mouldings and cornices.  

In the modern extension the kitchen and double height family room acts as the perfect place for the family to gather but there are several other areas for private retreats.  All bedrooms are spacious and the master bedroom suite is outstanding offering the luxury of space, views, privacy, a substantial dressing room and vast luxuriously appointed en-suite.  

The pool house and surrounds offer an enviable lifestyle together with the gym.  Two substantial patios to the north and east allow seamless connection to level gardens and enables classic Queensland inside/outside living.  The secure six car garage is EV and battery ready and has direct internal access to the mudroom and kitchen above plus gym/pilates studio.
