8 Bulcock Avenue, Mount Nebo QLD 4520

Architect designed and built in 2000, and then masterfully renovated by the current owners, this mountain retreat perches high over the eastern escarpment of Mt Nebo, boasting expansive views across National Park, over Samford Valley and to Moreton Bay beyond; on clear days you'll relish in the views of the sand dunes on North Stradbroke Island! Tucked away on a quiet rain-forest lane way, within a unique community of those that share the love of the natural environment, this private residence offers an astute buyer the perfect weekend get-away, or a full time abode, for those chasing the peace and quiet of a mountain lifestyle, whilst remaining connected to city conveniences.

Stunning in its architecture, this contemporary residence combines modern materials and clever design to create a striking yet very comfortable family home. Raked ceilings and an expansive use of glass, sliding doors and louvre windows allow cross ventilation, creating a light and airy feel with passive solar efficiency. Polished Blackbutt hardwood timber floors and stunning slate accents blend beautifully for an earthy, organic vibe whilst offering a high-end, quality finish.

The home blends seamlessly into its natural surrounds, with the well-finished interior complemented by large decks, wrapped in glass balustrade, allowing the line between inside and out to be blurred and the views appreciated from every vantage point. Perfect for those that love to entertain, the open plan kitchen features large island bench, clever storage solutions built into the bones of the home to not compromise on floor space and quality stainless steel appliances including electric oven, gas cook top and dishwasher. The open plan design sees the kitchen, living & dining areas lead to the large North East facing, covered outdoor entertainment deck; perfectly positioned to capture those mountain views and prevailing breezes. The home is kept warm and dry by the large and super-efficient 'Quadra-Fire' slow combustion wood burner; perfect for cosy winters at home whilst still maximising the views!

There are three generous bedrooms including the private Master Retreat, occupying the entire third floor of the home and featuring a huge walk in robe, well-appointed ensuite and private verandah with even better views, given the additional height! The other two light filled bedrooms, located on the main level, offer large built in mirrored robes, ceiling fans and fabulous views! One of these bedrooms features an uber cool loft, custom designed and masterfully crafted in Tasmanian Oak, creating the ultimate kids' room, maximising on every square inch of the space. With the flexibility to be shared, offered by ample space for a queen bed top and bottom, custom bookshelf, creative workspace and personalised, colour changing LED strip lights this room will be the envy of all of your kids friends!

There is storage aplenty including multiple linen and utility cupboards, large robes in all bedrooms, under stair storage, as well as two-car remote garage and laundry on the lower level. Boasting loads of potential and the ability to add value, the current owners have drafted, certified engineered plans to build in and extend the lower level (subject to council approval), creating an additional two bedrooms, living space, deck, bathroom and large laundry.

Adding to the property's appeal, the land has been made usable, extensive earth works have created a flat, fully fenced yard featuring established, tropical low-maintenance gardens, chicken coop and run, ponds with thriving eco-systems and native frog habitats, as well as a custom built platform and draw bridge, shaded by an idyllic gum-tree, for afternoons filled with imaginative play outside. The second street frontage, and concrete driveway, accessed from the rear of the property, on McSweeney Crescent, is not only rare for the area but helps to make weekend gardening or tidy up projects a breeze!

The current owners have enjoyed raising their children amid the sights and sounds of the natural bush setting; sit back, relax and marvel at the vibrant array of birdlife including friendly King Parrots, wake up early for breakfast with the Pademelon's and watch the ever-evolving country landscape. Mt Nebo is home to a close-knit community of friendly neighbours and a relaxed Village vibe. In one direction, it is an easy 25-minute drive to the charm of Samford Village, including the well-regarded Steiner School and in the other, the endless shopping and amenities of The Gap. Brisbane CBD & the Airport is just a 45-minute drive allowing locals to experience the joys of living simply in nature, whilst remaining connected to the busy outside world.
