'Suthermere' - A Once-in-a-Generation Ascot Estate
There are homes of distinction, and then there are properties that become part of Brisbane's architectural legacy. 'Suthermere' is unquestionably one of them. Revealing itself beyond magnificent Paul Bangay-inspired gardens across an extraordinary 2,024sqm corner estate, this irreplaceable Federation residence is an Ascot landmark where history, incomparable luxury and landscape intertwine, and every arrival is an experience.
Originally built in the early 1900s, meticulously restored and commercially engineered with an unwavering commitment to craftsmanship, the home honours its heritage while embracing a contemporary vision for Queensland living. Every detail has been considered with extraordinary precision, from the hand-laid red brick facade with traditional tuckpointing to the original fittings refinished in satin nickel, meticulously replicated windows, custom-milled timber profiles and exquisite joinery by Jon Wyer of Wyer + Craw. Soaring 4-metre ceilings frame hand-finished timber, pressed metal detailing, imported European lighting, Baccarat chandeliers and an exquisite palette of marble, limestone and Italian Travertine, creating interiors of breathtaking scale and timeless elegance.
Yet for all its grandeur, 'Suthermere' is a home designed to be lived in. Garden vistas grace every room, verandahs and terraces dissolve into beautifully landscaped lawns, and thoughtfully planned wings allow the residence to adapt effortlessly as families grow and guests come together. Formal sitting and dining rooms evoke a bygone era with rare step-through windows, hand-printed French wallpaper and an elegant entertaining bar, while the chef's kitchen, appointed with Gaggenau appliances, flows to an expansive family room beneath a striking ceiling inspired by the Louvre's iconic glass pyramid.
Life here is defined by unforgettable moments. Host celebrations of every scale across the terraces and gardens, enjoy performances in your private concert hall and library, complete with a professionally designed stage, full acoustic treatment, theatrical lighting and smoke effects, or gather with family around one of two outdoor kitchens, including a Tiffany marble entertainer's pavilion with an Angelo Po BBQ and Teppanyaki plate. Wellness is equally considered, with a dedicated fitness retreat, heated ionised swimming pool, magnesium spa and outdoor shower creating your own private resort.
A children's lounge and study accompany the six-bedroom configuration, or five bedrooms plus an office. Occupying a private wing, the inspiring primary suite is a sanctuary of luxury, featuring an exclusive balcony, dual walk-in robes and a spectacular ensuite. A fully self-contained guest suite with its own ensuite, kitchenette and private entry offers complete independence for extended family, guests or live-in accommodation.
Rarely does a residence possess such history, presence and liveability. Resting in an exclusive Ascot Avenue just 250m from Racecourse Road, a leisurely stroll from the Riverwalk, and on the doorstep of prestigious schools, this is a legacy estate without equal.
