Auction
The tree has been here a while. So have the palms, the gardens and that unmistakable feeling of a home that has had time to settle beautifully into its place.
There is no missing the street appeal here. Dark brick sits beneath a deep grey roof, established greenery softens the edges and retaining walls give structure to a frontage that feels private, permanent and properly at home in Carindale. Beyond it all, a generous porch waits at the entrance.
Inside, things become even more interesting.
Rather than placing four bedrooms in a predictable row, the floorplan gives the main suite its own territory near the entrance. Complete with built-in storage, air-conditioning and an ensuite with an impressively generous shower, it is comfortably removed from the remaining accommodation.
Move further in and the house opens up.
Cathedral ceilings rise above the main living zone, changing the scale of the interior almost instantly. There is volume overhead, room around you and, importantly, more than one place to put your feet up. Separate lounge and living areas give family life some breathing room, while tiled floors, plantation shutters, ceiling fans and split-system air-conditioning keep everything practical and comfortable.
At the centre of it all is the kitchen. Exactly where it should be.
Living and dining unfold around it, keeping the cook in the conversation and the household connected, while both living zones open to the covered patio beyond. It is an easy floorplan to understand because it simply makes sense.
To the other side of the home, a wide hallway creates another layer of separation before arriving at three built-in bedrooms, the family bathroom and a particularly generous laundry. A separate bathtub and shower make the bathroom family-ready, while air-conditioning to every bedroom means comfort has not been reserved for the main living areas.
A backyard that asks very little and gives plenty back
Outside is less about landscaping for show and more about having space you will actually use.
The covered patio is tucked privately away, sheltered from the elements and connected directly to the home's living spaces. Morning coffee can happen here. So can long lunches, a barbecue with friends or dinner outside while the kids disappear into the yard.
And there is proper yard to disappear into.
Fully fenced and largely grassed, the backyard leaves plenty of room for children and pets without handing you an ambitious gardening schedule every weekend. Two separate sheds take care of the practical side of things, providing valuable extra storage for tools, bikes, garden gear and all the bits and pieces that are better kept out of the garage. It is tidy, private and wonderfully uncomplicated.
Then Carindale takes over.
Westfield Carindale puts major shopping, dining, cinemas and everyday essentials within easy reach, while Minnippi Parklands and the area's network of parks and recreation spaces bring plenty of green into the equation. The property sits within the Belmont State School Prep to Year 6 and Whites Hill State College Years 7 to 12 state school catchments, with Belmont State School approximately 720 metres away.
Creek Road, Old Cleveland Road and nearby Gateway Motorway connections also make the wider city remarkably accessible, whether the destination is Brisbane CBD, the airport, bayside or somewhere further afield.
