20 Byron Court, Cornubia QLD 4130

Nestled into the side of Hideaway Mountain, with a north east aspect, this beautiful haven from multi award-winning architect Donald Spencer merges creative artistry and superb craftsmanship with glorious natural mountain surroundings.

Sweep off Plantain Road into a private estate. Drive up the 300m driveway, only four minutes from the Pacific Motorway and feel miles away from the hustle and bustle amongst 5,364m2 of natural beauty. Relish life in a dwelling with expansive decks, magnificent vaulted ceilings and floor to ceiling glass framing spectacular views of serene bushland. The 45-degree pitched ceilings rise to 5.8m at the heart of the central living space, allowing light to flood in from the 3-storey bank of windows at the front of the house.

This five-level home, was inspired by a German Chalet. The structure is anchored by eight, three storey tapered stone columns and central chimney with fireplaces on two levels. This architectural feat was meticulously constructed by a team of stone masons over 6 months for the owner of Wilson Constructions, Jim Wilson in the late 1980's. Other unique structural features include, solid timber beams and trusses that support 360-degree, 25mm thick glass walls. The design culminates in a 3 storey, 7.2 m wide window wall facing beautiful Venman Bushland National Park Peaks.

Further into the house, the wood features, like the kitchen cabinets and hardwood flooring are part of a simple material palette, that is consistent both inside and out. Wide Western Red Cedar framed doors create a warm ambience and all the privacy you could envision. This home really boasts the most.

The outdoors is equally memorable with a150,000 litre natural pool with waterfall and grotto, and a bridge leading to the pool house. This would make an ideal artist studio. The current owners have completed extensive renovations and upgrades of the properties high-end features.

WHAT WE LOVE ABOUT THIS RESIDENCE:
Nathan Strudwick, Principal of Elders Shailer Park said, "This might sound strange, but this home is one that needs to be felt, not just seen - it's hard to describe the way the design just makes sense, the way it captures breezes and light and makes it so easy for you to move around in the space. Come and feel it for yourself! It feels like home."
