Overview

Leafy Outlooks, Spacious Living and Family Leisure

This beautifully reimagined post-war house offers sweeping treetop views towards the mountain, creating a serene and natural atmosphere on a quiet, family-friendly street. The property is set behind a modest 15-metre frontage on a 615 square meter block, providing ample space and privacy.

A thoughtful renovation completed in 2018 by a local architect expanded the home, blending modern functionality with the charm of the original design. The living, dining, and kitchen areas upstairs open through bi-fold doors onto an elevated deck, where the sounds of birdsong and gentle breezes combine with integrated speakers to create a peaceful indoor-outdoor living experience. The kitchen features an island bench that encourages relaxed cooking and socializing, perfect for entertaining against the tranquil backdrop of leafy outlooks.

The calm ambiance extends to the newly constructed front porch and the lower deck, which is surrounded by palms, gum trees, and a private backyard designed for barefoot afternoons, children's play, and quiet moments under the trees.

The home offers four bedrooms and two bathrooms, providing flexibility for family living. The downstairs master retreat includes motorized blinds, direct access to the bathroom and laundry, and a dedicated study area with Victorian Ash desks that can also serve as a fifth bedroom. A lock-up carport and additional shaded parking complete the property.

Additional features include a 4-burner gas cooktop, DeLonghi oven, Bosch dishwasher, Bose speakers on the upper deck, Jamos speakers in the living room, Somfy blinds in the master bedroom with app and remote control, split system air-conditioning in every room, and a living room air-conditioning unit installed in 2024. The property also benefits from LPG gas bottles with a plumbed gas connection to the upper deck, a high energy-efficiency electric hot water system installed in 2024, top-tier LG north-facing 6.57kW solar panels still under warranty, and a SolarEdge 5kW Hybrid-Inverter also under warranty.

Located in a family-friendly neighborhood, the house is close to essential amenities and schools. Children are within 1.2 kilometers of Mt Gravatt State School, Mt Gravatt High School, and St Agnes Primary School.
