Elegant living in Ashgrove
A stunning tiled portico entrance creates a stately and unique welcome to this grand Queenslander property and is a taste of the elegant, yet relaxed living within.
The 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom landmark home is being offered for sale for just the second time in its almost one hundred year history.
The property occupies a highly prized, flat and elevated 810m2 block of land in a sought after location.
It is brimming with character and timeless appeal and it also enjoys an easy connection with the established and lavish gardens.
The ground floor offers a stylish entry, with high ceilings and a lovely sitting area, which has bi-fold doors opening to the lush back garden and expansive lawn.
This is a beautiful light filled space and ideal as a casual entertaining area. There are three spacious bedrooms on this level, including the Master.
The bedrooms all have ample built-in storage and French doors opening to external terraces. Plantation shutters filter the light and are a practical and stylish feature. The Master has its own ensuite, while the other bedrooms share the main bathroom, which has a stunning freestanding bath and separate shower. The laundry is also conveniently on this level.
The upper level is gloriously open plan, with the kitchen and living area taking pride of place.
The kitchen is stunning, with stone benchtops, an extra wide Ilve oven with gas hotplates and loads of storage. Bi-fold doors open to the deep, rear entertainer's deck. This is a wonderful space, where you can dine and relax in a private and peaceful setting, while admiring the lush outlook.
There is a separate study and also a large bedroom on this level, which has a beautiful chandelier, walk-in storage and accesses a stylish bathroom.
A sophisticated dining area is a lovely setting for more formal gatherings and it leads to a covered front verandah, offering great airflow through this level and another picturesque spot to relax. Thanks to the elevation the home enjoys a fabulous outlook.
The property also has beautiful, fenced grounds, with a large, well-tended veggie patch and a quaint cottage nestled under an established Poinciana tree, which is currently used as an artist's studio. This cottage is fully lined and would also make an ideal granny flat or teenage retreat.
An additional storage shed is perfect for garden equipment.
The home has ducted air-conditioning throughout and double car accommodation with an additional secure storage area.
Ashgrove is just over 4km to the CBD and is a leafy suburb popular with families.
Parks and bikeways are close by, as are Ashgrove State School, Marist Brothers College and Mt St Michael's.
The property is also conveniently close to the thriving and vibrant Ashgrove shopping precinct, cafes and bus transport.
This property has been a much-loved family home and for obvious reasons - it offers stylish, yet easy living on a large block of land in a fantastic, elevated location.
