36 Highview Terrace, Daisy Hill QLD 4127

A rare architectural treasure, this 4-level Donald Spencer-designed residence is a 90's engineering masterpiece with sound-proofed construction, light-drenched interiors, verdant green exteriors, and sweeping views of the skyline, mountain ranges and glorious sunsets.

Blending New England charm - steep rooflines and dormer windows - with classic Queensland character, the home delivers more than 550m² of under-roof, light-filled glory. It also offers incredible versatility with 4+ bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms over four levels on what was a groundbreaking form of sloped construction.

Positioned on a substantial 3,073m² block in Daisy Hill's most coveted enclave, the property also presents exciting potential for a 1 into 2 lot subdivision, or even 1-3 (*both subject to Council approval) for extended family or additional income via an additional constructed home. Tucked into a leafy, private pocket and unfolding with breathtaking impact from every angle, this unique, elevated 'pole' home feels like a hidden sanctuary, yet backs onto prestigious John Paul College, and is moments from the M1, parks, shops and transport.

From the curved driveway to the self-contained studio, landscaped gardens, lush lawns, sparkling pool, and treetop views, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to secure one of Daisy Hill's most remarkable homes. The original owner's brief to the visionary architect was that she "wanted the best of everything", and the current owner has tended lovingly to the home for 30 years, adding her own carefully curated touches. This is your chance to carry on a legacy of architectural excellence and timeless craftsmanship.

Interiors: Spacious, Sun-Filled Interiors with Soaring Cathedral Ceilings

Step inside and discover a home of incredible scale and sophistication that will grandly reveal its luxury-designed treasures behind an unassuming, but beautiful facade. Featuring polished Tasmanian Oak floors, soaring cathedral ceilings, and floor-to-ceiling clerestory windows, this home effortlessly combines elegance with originality. On the functional side, a ducted Vacu-Maid system will make vacuuming a breeze, plus an internal laundry chute from the top and second level bathrooms connect directly to the laundry. No more carrying the kids' laundry down the stairs!

1. Main Level

Living areas on this level include a home office at the front of the home which could become another living area with its light-filled, leafy views. Passing a cosy bench seat, the warm welcome bursts forth with an inviting lounge area, and a formal dining room and a kitchen which features an island bench with gas cooktop, double ovens, a pantry, deep farmhouse sinks, a dishwasher, and lots of stunning Tasmanian Oak cabinetry. A sunken lounge with bay windows and a fireplace will offer an inviting sanctuary in the colder months, and all of these living areas have breathtaking views.

The master suite offers a bedroom with raked ceilings, a serene private balcony, a separate powder room, full-length wardrobe space and a luxurious ensuite with a bubbling corner spa, a 'his and hers' shower, and a unique self-draining planter box for your favourite tropical greenery.

This level is also an entertainer's dream with a timber deck that spans the entire length of the home. It offers breathtaking sunset views, as well as the chance to spot a wallaby in the back yard, a koala in one of the trees or ducks in the small dam at the back of the property.

2. Kids' Quarters

Heading up the divine curved staircase, are where the house and the treetops meet in a mezzanine design. Here, there is another sublime retreat, complete with mountain-top vistas. Known as the 'junior wing', this level has 3 sizeable bedrooms, all with raked ceilings, ceiling fans, built-ins, and enough room for a study nook. It also has a big bathroom with a shower/bath, and a separate powder room.

3. Gym Level

Down the stairs from the main level is what is known as the 'gym' level, which is an expansive space with enough room for a dedicated home gym/yoga zone, and currently houses a 4-person infrared sauna. There is also a storage room here as well as a massive laundry that's bigger than an average bedroom! Alternative functionality could easily be applied here too, with the addition of an ensuite, another bedroom, or another living area (perhaps a dedicated kids' TV room or a home theatre?)

4. Studio Level

Down to the 4th level, you'll find a self-contained studio with 5+ metre ceilings and a private entrance. It boasts a dining room, living room, a bedroom with a bespoke diamond-shaped window, and an ensuite bathroom. This space has access to the secure 2-car garage which has storage and high ceilings ideal for your RV. This level would make an ideal teenager or elderly parent's retreat. There is also a separate storage room which would make the ideal wine cellar!

Exteriors: Acreage-Style Oasis with Legendary Entertaining Spaces

Accessed from the studio level and down a series of stairs is where the fun well and truly begins! This outdoor entertaining area spans 2 levels, and boasts a sparkling pool, a sprawling pool deck, and views to the lush outdoor grounds. Surrounded by an abundance of native trees that form a private oasis, entertaining will never be the same again (the owners have held parties and music concerts here that have been deemed 'legendary'). There is an expanse of grassy lawn for the kids and their furry friend to frolic on, and room for a kids' playscape, cricket pitch, some raised gardens bed, a chook pen … the list is endless. JPC is literally a short walk away from the backyard (so the kids can sleep in a little longer) and a semi permanent aquatic habitat for birds and wildlife will provide endless hours of tadpole-searching fun. This is acreage living at its best!

Recent upgrades in the last three years include a new hot water system, new pool pump and new guttering and roof check. There is also an Exterra termite monitoring system that has been in place for 30 years with proven reliability, and the roof is corrugated Colorbond.
