Positioned in one of Queensland's most prestigious streets, this meticulous Paddington Queenslander has been masterfully transformed by DAH architects, to a luxurious contemporary residence of distinction.
Perched high on a ridge with a generous 579sqm allotment, every room captures the 270 degree panorama including Mt Cootha and tranquil green views. The corner position offers complete privacy and luxury, designed to appeal to the most discerning purchaser.
This landmark beauty, dating back to the early 1900's retains the charming and distinct features of it's iconic exterior, which belies the crisp internal contemporary transformation, where every part of the home has been completely rebuilt from scratch, retaining only the original floorboards, doors and windows.
Presenting as a brand new home, never lived in, the rejuvenation by Douglas Construction and Development, provides the peace of mind of being covered by builder's warranty.
The home features extensive use of concrete, timber and glass throughout with a generous use of natural materials including raw exposed bricks at the entry level, paying respect to the original genre of the home.
Upon entering the lower level, the striking use of 3m high ceilings and generous voids, provide a dramatic visual impact, enhanced by art gallery walls, open plan living and a magnificent chefs kitchen which connects to the outdoor pavilion and swimming pool.
Particular attention to detail has been paid to the kitchen, which includes a handpicked four-metre-long marble island bench, high-end Miele appliances and substantial concealed butler's pantry.
The glass encased staircase, highlighted with the extensive use of overhead skylights, provides constant shafts of sunlight bringing light to the home, while floor to ceiling customis made doors, bring in the outside views as well as cooling breezes.
The upper level is dedicated to the bedroom wing and also a seperate living area and original sun room wrapping around the front of the house, an ideal playroom for children.
All four bedrooms, which have built in storage and ducted air-conditioning, are on the upper level of the home.
The master retreat has a large walk-in wardrobe and a bay window from which you can sit and enjoy the panoramic views, as well as a balcony and luxurious ensuite with a standalone bathtub, double sinks and large glass-screened double-headed shower.
A second large bedroom on this level also has an ensuite while the remaining two queen-sized bedrooms are serviced by a large family bathroom which has a separate bath and shower.
There's also a study with built-in desk and storage on the upper level in addition to the large living room with white plantation shutters which would be suitable for use as a teenager's retreat.
