IDYLLIC FAMILY LIVING If idyllic family living for you is a spacious home with a tennis court, swimming pool and an outlook to bushland all within an easy walk of cafes, schools and express buses to the city this is your ideal family home. Architect designed and northeast facing on 2.5 acres, the home is a beautiful setting for an outdoorsy childhood and a haven for teenagers and young adults with its separation of spaces and indoor/outdoor entertaining areas. This property provides quintessential Queensland family living in a superb location.Within easy walking distance of Kenmore Shopping Village on one side and Kenmore Plaza on the other. Both offer a wide variety of shops, supermarkets, eateries and services to cater for most family needs. Several schools and childcare centers, ranging from early childhood through to high school are also in close proximity, providing choice and easy accessibility to education for children of all ages.The bus services in the area are excellent, whether it be for commuting to the city for work or entertainment, travelling to university or schools outside the immediate area or visiting many of Brisbanes other attractions.This home was designed with family living in mind. It cleverly accommodates a familys different stages and changing needs as children grow into teenagers and young adults. Indoor living areas are on one level with easy access to outdoor living areas while half levels go up and down to the bedroom wings. Areas to come together as a family are separate from areas to study and sleep. The design makes the most of breezes and the views of Mt Coot-tha bushland. The textural combination of rendered brick walls, feature timber ceilings, warm polished timber floors, and tiles that are cool underfoot, harmonises with the natural bush setting. Strategic positioning of skylights and extensive use of glass on the northeast elevation brings in sunlight. The result is a sense of spaciousness and being embraced by the great outdoors. The home and garden are designed as a place to celebrate family milestones and special occasions with large gatherings or intimate groups. String up fairy lights in the native trees and have a live band on the pool deck for a spectacular party where guests can view the band, the infinity pool and the tennis court against the backdrop of Mt Coot-tha. Or invite a smaller group to have dinner in front of the fireplace in the formal living and dining space with views across the garden and trees. The heart of the home is the northeast facing space incorporating the kitchen, family sunroom and covered verandah that looks out to bushland. The recently renovated kitchen features a butlers pantry and a free-standing stone bench large enough for the whole family to help prepare and enjoy meals together. The central position of the open kitchen links it to the family sunroom and verandah, as well as the formal living and dining space, making it a natural place for friends and family to gather. The family sunroom is encircled by glass to bring in the sunlight and trees. The large verandah is the setting for endless get-togethers. The perfect northeast aspect makes this open plan space the place to be all year round. Its cool and shaded in the summer and warm and sunny in the winter.Just a few steps from the verandah is a level green lawn where you can have a game of boules on a balmy evening before dipping into the pool. Take the boardwalk from the pool to the tennis court, go past the tree house and youll see not one but two viewing decks to watch the action on the court. The floodlit championship tennis court has a perfect north-south orientation in a private bush setting. At night, both viewing decks are ideal for gazing towards Mt Coot-tha and drinking in the stars. During the day, kookaburras and rosellas perch in the poinciana trees that grace the garden, which is filled with agapanthus, grevilleas, bromeliads and birds of paradise. The bore water, irrigation system and established native plants make it an easy care garden. When its time to head indoors, the bedroom wings are quiet and separate. The parents retreat is northeast facing with views across the bushland, pool and court. Step out onto the balcony to take in the fresh air and private forest. The bedrooms polished timber floors gleam in the light. The spacious walk in robe is filled with light from a northeast window. The ensuite features a huge spa bath while a southeast window brings in the trees.Next to the parents retreat is a room with polished timber floors, built in robes and large windows. Currently it is another private space within the parents retreat. It would also make an ideal nursery or childrens bedroom.Downstairs is a large laundry and another bedroom wing. The laundry has built in cupboards and plenty of bench space. Two generous bedrooms have built in robes, a built in desk and windows to the northeast. The first bedroom has a balcony while the second bedroom is slightly larger. These two bedrooms share a three-way bathroom.The self-contained guest quarters at the end of this wing would equally suit a teenager or young adult who wants their own space. The quarters include a king size bedroom, walk in robe, ensuite, kitchenette and a balcony. Down another set of stairs to ground level is another bedroom, a bathroom and a pool room that looks through glass to the swimming pool, garden and trees. Through the door is an enormous home gym with built in robes and glass doors to a covered patio which steps straight out to the pool and garden. This gym could potentially be a media room. A door in the gym opens to a wine cellar that is built into the earth and naturally cooled with its brick walls and floor.Step from the pool room to outside, follow a short path and you come upon an enchanting room with built in robes and glass walls to the north, east and south. This artists studio could also be a yoga room, music room or a second home office. The first home office is located near the kitchen with a view of cars coming down the driveway and either parking in the two-storey garage or in the extra parking bays. Beyond the floodlit championship tennis court is an acre of bushland accessed by the driveway that continues along the northern boundary of the property.
