Taking the traditional family home into a new era, 9 Watercress Place will delight any school-aged family in need of a little extra room to grow and play. It's a flexible set up of generous proportions, with the sizeable outdoor area matched with an equally open and spacious interior that took the current owners 18 months to renovate to perfection.

Renovated by dm2 Architecture, 9 Watercress Place was originally the farm house of Watercress Farm Estate, and now features multiple living and entertaining zones that capture the best aspects of The Gap's surrounding leafy landscape.

The outdoor entertaining area is in a class of its own, selected as the finalist in the landscape Queensland residential construction award in 2016 by Boss Gardenscapes, and is positioned to take advantage of its surrounds in one of Brisbane's most family-centric neighbourhoods. Here you will find resort-like features including a sizeable swimming pool and spa, full tennis court, a magnificent covered outdoor kitchen that includes a teppanyaki grill and pizza oven and a children's playground. Fantastically, the external entertaining areas are under-cover, and with both an outdoor fireplace and ceiling fans, are perfect for year-round use.

The external space easily connects into the spacious ground level, which contains two large bedrooms with built-in-robes, the laundry, the third bathroom, a study, a secondary kitchen and separate living areas. This level is perfect to house older children, long-term guests or for individual break-out spaces when entertaining competing groups of kids (or adults!).

Upstairs the inviting open plan kitchen, dining and lounge area effortlessly integrate into an entertainer's deck via large glass sliding doors. The kitchen takes on a French bistro feel, with high quality finishes including double ovens, an induction cooktop, a walk-in Butler's pantry, Antique Black Granite Benchtops and cabinets in white 2-pac polyurethane that sit above classic subway tiles. There is also a stunning Calcutta Borgini marble island bench, which is ideal as a breakfast bar or an easy servery when entertaining. The upstairs level also contains the enviable master suite that includes an ensuite and its own private living room, and sits alongside three generous bedrooms which are serviced by the second family bathroom.

Our family home plays a hefty role in shaping who we are - which why it is so important to find a home that adapts to its growing inhabitants. Everything about 9 Watercress Place speaks to day-to-day use with a firm grasp on family living that will last for many years to come.
