width=This is a rare opportunity indeed. On offer is absolute riverfront living on one of inner Brisbane’s most sought after riverfront localities, with stunning views sweeping almost 180 degrees through North up two broad reaches of the river and incorporating a wide sweep of the city and New Farm Park.
The best of both worlds are on offer;  private riverside relaxation at home or the somewhat faster paced inner city excitement and buzz that's just a stone’s throw away in trendy Oxford Street or across the water in New Farm or indeed in the city centre itself.  A City Cat terminal is conveniently located a short stroll away though a quiet riverside park.  width=
  width=The property caters admirably for maritime pursuits with its own deepwater pontoon and decking on site.  Breezy outdoor dining facilities and the pool connect seamlesssly with the river.  These offer an exclusive sanctuary from which to absorb the ever-changing sights, lights and delights that only a combination of the river and the city are able to offer.

Relative close proximity to the mouth of the river and Moreton Bay itself gives this broad expanse of the of the river some of the clearest river waters in Brisbane.  The constant play of light and wind on the water and the passing cavalcade of rivercraft  only serve to stimulate the senses further.

A spacious air-conditioned residence over three levels is in place in the impressive location and approved plans exist to build should that be a preference. The home is concealed behind a tall ‘secret garden’ walled entrance and provides vehicular access via automatic roller-doors and pedestrian access via a garden gate.  A landscaped front courtyard separates the two car garaging from the home beyond.

The home itself can be accessed in either of two ways. The main entrance accesses the more formal upper level a second entrance below opens into the family living level.  The river views from both levels are supreme.

The lower level is a cool open plan area that includes a kitchen equipped with Smeg cooking facilities, cream cabinetry and a wide breakfast bar.  This opens to the living and dining areas.   Closer to the river still, a family lounge distinguished by polished floorboards and bifold doors accesses a wide breezy balcony.  It’s from this balcony that the true magic of this incomparable position starts to unfold.

On this level also and sharing the northerly balcony and views is a bedroom with ensuite and a private exit to the garden.  A further two bedrooms are situated on this level.  Downstairs a study with sliding glass doors opens to the pool, deck, the garden, pontoon and the wide angle river views.   width=

A polished timber staircase with timber and wire balustrades leads stylishly to the very upper level which incompasses a large, open-plan area with glorious high ceilings, most suited to a formal lounge or huge studio.  Bifold doors open to a second balcony offering the same extensive river views.

The master bedroom, which has it's own bathroom, shares this balcony. It's prime position perfect for the serene pleasure of soaking up the unique sights of the river and city lights. There are two further bedrooms on this floor. One of these rooms has delightful French doors opening out onto the front courtyard. Another spacious main bathroom completes the practicalities.  A very large, easy access laundry is hidden away off the courtyard.

This rarely offered property is ready for living and enjoying now and has the added benefit of suitability to work from home at this fabulous location.  A further alternative for now or for the future might be to fully capitalise on this, one of South-East Queensland's premier riverfront localities.  width=
