Welcome to this striking contemporary address nestled in Fig Tree Pocket's most prestigious street.  Formerly featured on the pages of Queensland Homes magazine, little more needs to be said about the unique architectural appeal of the sprawling two-level property.

Boasting more than 520m2 of under-roof space, this home is as functional, versatile, and family-friendly as it is opulent.  With three separate living zones, five bedrooms (three enjoying ensuite access) and stunning resort-style alfresco areas flowing from virtually every point across the ground floor, prepare to be won over by the lifestyle that awaits. Rich solid timber doors provide a grand entryway into the tropically landscaped front gardens with their towering Palm tree, Balinese-inspired gazebo, and water feature.

Inside, soaring vaulted ceilings, a double height void and the mezzanine gallery above create an incredible sense of space. Meanwhile expanses of glass frame picture-perfect views over the heated infinity-edge swimming pool and spa, lush, grounds and river beyond. The vast open-plan kitchen, dining and family areas all spill out onto a central all-weather entertaining pavilion, where you will also enjoy the spoils of a poolside sundeck, woodfired pizza oven and Teppanyaki grill with bar seating. Spend precious family time playing on the lawns beneath magnificent Eucalypts, then follow your exclusive staircase down to the riverfront for a leisurely dog walk along some 2km of waterside wilderness trails. 

Back inside, a dedicated media room/home theatre and separate lounge or rumpus room offer busy households a choice of breakaway zones. Meanwhile, the upper-level hosts four bedrooms including a lavish master haven with hotel-inspired ensuite, custom walk-in dressing room and wall-to-wall windows capturing spectacular pool and river outlooks.  A further three-bedroom wing is thoughtfully separated from the parent's retreat via the gallery walkway. A second bedroom also boasts its own ensuite, while the other two are serviced by another brilliantly designed central bathroom. A fifth king-sized bedroom is privately positioned on the ground floor and enjoys access to another ensuite/two-way bathroom.  This room provides the perfect accommodation options for independent teenagers, regular house guests, or older live-in family members who prefer to avoid using stairs.  Alternatively, it would make the ideal professional home office.

Premium finishes and attention to the finest details create an essence of both luxury and warmth throughout. From the stylish plantation shutters, feature gas fireplace, and brand-new plush carpets to the dedicated wine cellar catering to connoisseurs with even the largest bottle collection, this is a place you will immediately want to call "home". The gourmet entertainer's kitchen features stone benchtops and a casual family breakfast bar, 2Pac soft-close joinery and a large butler's style walk-in pantry. European appliances include a Gaggenau pyrolytic oven, steam oven and microwave, fully integrated Miele dishwasher plus plumbed French-door fridge space.

All four superb bathrooms boast floor-to-ceiling tiled and stone-top vanities, two offering the luxury freestanding bathtubs. (including the master ensuite with its soothing water views). Additional property highlights include ducted air-conditioning, ceiling fans; security screening, ducted vacuum, laundry with direct access to a private drying court, excellent storage including walk-inn linen press and a underground water tank.
