Step into a world of vibrant colour and timeless elegance with this Mediterranean-inspired waterfront home, situated in the exclusive Tennyson enclave. Flood-free and with tributary access to Brisbane River via a private pontoon, this elevated property enjoys a stunning backdrop of glistening water and lush bushland. This is a unique residence, offering the perfect setting to embrace nature’s beauty. Larger than life, this iconic residence references Greek styling and lifestyle, and the lapis lazuli exterior is beautifully framed by manicured, terraced gardens. 

Meticulously crafted and built to an exceptionally high standard, this 341sqm home is nestled on a prime 607sqm lot, and has been cherished by a single family for 26 years. Two-level steel-frame construction and strategically positioned at the street's highest point, the two-level loggia design offers an exceptional opportunity to immerse yourself in waterfront and bushland. Seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor spaces, the loggie have been designed to allow the enjoyment of uninterrupted vistas while relaxing in a sheltered, open-air environment. The expansive outdoor spaces are the true highlight of this property, with lush gardens full of tropical plants, flowering vines, and Mediterranean touches. It’s an entertainer’s dream, ideal for hosting gatherings or simply enjoying the serenity of the waterfront views.

The versatility of this property is unmatched, with each level designed to function as a potentially independent living environment. This unique design provides remarkable adaptability for diverse lifestyle and potential dual-occupancy requirements. With spacious, well-designed living areas communicating with thoughtfully created outdoor spaces, and multiple bedrooms, this home would also be a comfortable family home. 

Entering the home, the cool and welcoming interiors have been crafted with stunning marble tiles and thoughtfully chosen colours. At street level, the bright foyer leads to the expansive communal spaces, drawing the eye out to the loggia and beyond to the sparkling Oxley creek. This level has been cleverly designed to allow enjoyment of this outlook from all of the spaces, including the bedroom suite. Equipped with a walk-in wardrobe and stylish ensuite, this arrangement evokes the feel of a perpetual holiday retreat.

Also on this level is a fully equipped kitchen, finished to echo the European stylings of the exterior. Custom Italian light fittings and cabinet handles create a playful and fresh look, complemented by the subtly detailed Corian benchtops. Functionality, storage and style have been achieved in the design of this kitchen and a seamless connection to the communal living spaces. This creates an intuitive and fluid entertaining environment, inviting you to enjoy the spectacular surroundings. The red striped awnings of the loggia are a statement of sophistication and a striking contrast to the cobalt blue exterior.  

Upstairs, the layout has been similarly designed around the outlook. Each of the two bedrooms has been equipped with a walk-in wardrobe, and are serviced by the large bathroom with spa and shower. On this level, the kitchen has been economically designed while still providing the functionality demanded by modern living. The extra elevation is evident, with breathtaking views across the tops of the trees and beyond from both inside and the upper loggia.
