23 Rupert Street, Windsor, Qld 4030

Built in 1889 by prominent architect G. Addison, 'Kirkston' invites you to write the next chapter of its illustrious history. Owned by a select few over the past 130 years, this tri-level mansion with a swimming pool, a stunning outlook and a separate bungalow tastefully fuses the refinement of a bygone era and modern liveability and luxury.

Ideally tucked away amongst prestigious homes in a quiet cul-de-sac, the property commands 360-degree city, mountainrange and Moreton Island views that will leave you mesmerised. A magnificent brick Victorian-era facade, a pitched roofline, sweeping wrap-around verandahs, ornate fretwork, mature gardens and a gated entry establish the elevated standard from the outset. Inside, you will find exquisite touches such as lofty ceilings, chandeliers, leadlight windows and 12 fireplaces. Expertly-crafted joinery in mahogany, oak and walnut is showcased throughout, adding to the residence's phenomenal appeal.

Crafted by the visionary behind the iconic Old Museum and the Albert Street Uniting Church, the home is a true landmark address. Thoughtfully maintained, the property boasts a spacious interconnected formal living and dining area on its middle level. Linked via the central grand foyer, a second lounge space and library/office provides another excellent setting for relaxing and spending time with loved ones.

Bathed in natural light, a large entertainers' kitchen displays premium appliances, vast amounts of cupboard storage, a butler's pantry and a breathtaking vista. There is also a generous games/billiards room and an attached deck, plus an enclosed al fresco area extending from the formal dining area. Each living and entertaining area seamlessly opens out to the property's grounds, creating superb indoor-outdoor flow.

Outside, a fully-fenced rear yard with a firepit area offers ample space for children and pets. Fringed by flourishing gardens, an open-air terrace and garden deck lead down to an over-sized heated in-ground swimming pool and a poolside patio. This spectacular outdoor area will leave families and entertainers wanting for nothing.

Finishing the middle level is a sizeable seventh/guest bedroom and a full bathroom, while a dedicated wine cellar is downstairs.

On the residence's third level, a palatial master suite benefits from its own retreat area, sitting room and balcony access. Three additional bedrooms also spill out onto the balcony and two large multi-purpose rooms/potential bedrooms have 3.1-metre-high ceilings. Servicing this level are two well-appointed bathrooms; both encompass showers and one also features a spa bath.

The home also includes an internal laundry, plentiful storage, a secure four-car garage with three phase power, off-street parking for another two vehicles, a security camera system and rainwater tanks.

Separate to the main property and situated adjacent to the residence's swimming pool, a self-contained modern bungalow can double as a home office, creative studio or guest accommodation. Here, a large living and dining area features its own full kitchen. An ensuited master bedroom showcases a walk-in robe and an integrated windowseat. Completing this versatile living option is a second bedroom with a built-in robe, in addition to a main bathroom, a European-style laundry and a dedicated study showcasing an integrated desk.
