Presenting this exclusive opportunity to secure Brisbane's finest piece of available riverfront real estate; 1619m2 in the prestigious Hawthorne "Avenues".
Positioned within one of the city's premier boulevards, the magnificent hilltop estate boasts more than 20 metres of absolute water frontage, with views stretching across the Brisbane River to New Farm Park and the city skyline.
Set securely behind wrought iron gates and manicured hedging, the expansive landscaped grounds promise the height of privacy and tranquillity. The residence itself features almost 500m2 of indoor-outdoor living and entertaining space over three levels; all designed to make the most of a breathtaking waterfront aspect.
Retaining much of its original art deco character, the elegant cavity brick residence underwent a full architectural renovation in 2002, creating luxurious modern appeal. Defined by its soaring ornate ceilings, rich polished hardwood floors, fireplaces and leadlight glass, the home now features a beautiful granite and 2Pac kitchen with high-end appliances, opulent floor-to-ceiling tiled bathrooms and even a private health retreat with spa, sauna and gym area.
Outside, a choice of alfresco pavilions overlook the stunning fully tiled infinity edge swimming pool positioned right on the riverfront. From here, soak up uninterrupted views across to the Powerhouse, city skyscrapers and Story Bridge. Watch the ferries glide by and people stroll along the Riverwalk all the way to Teneriffe's iconic Woolstore buildings. This is truly "position perfect" for both casual everyday living and sophisticated large-scale entertaining.
And, whilst the majestic home was built to stand the test of time, both in its classic elegence and superior quality, there is no question of the potential to transform this exceptional landholding into one of Brisbane's landmark addresses.
Located just 4km from the Brisbane CBD, this unique property sits a short walk from bus or ferry transport, riverside parkland, great local cafes, fine restaurants, a gourmet grocer and deluxe cinema complex. Moments from elite schools including Lourdes Hill College, Anglican Church Grammar and Saints Peters & Pauls Primary, it is minutes from Oxford Street Bulimba's vibrant shopping, dining and entertainment precinct. Residents will also enjoy swift access to world-class cultural offerings at Southbank and the forthcoming Queen's Wharf development, as well as arterial roads connecting with the Airport, Gold and Sunshine Coast.
