55 Coolibah Street, Bardon, Qld 4065

Hidden behind tall, lush hedges and sheltered by a majestic fig tree lies a secret: 'Warwick' c.1925; an expansive, historic Queenslander that swaps typical suburban life for the timeless architecture and sweeping proportions of a bygone era. Stepping through the gate, the world outside simply fades away, leaving behind an instant sense of peace and absolute privacy.

Originally built in the historic country town of its namesake and thoughtfully relocated to this generous north-facing Bardon block in the early 1990s, 'Warwick'is a grand Queenslander, meticulously restored, renovated, and extended. This is a residence designed to grow gracefully with your family through every chapter of life. From little ones exploring the gardens, to teenagers' gatherings, young adults needing space, and even the opportunity for multi-generational living, this home will meet you at every age and stage of life.

A wide staircase welcomes you up to the expansive wrap-around veranda, setting a tone of stately elegance. The front door is a true work of art, framed by stunning stained glass where the name "Warwick" is beautifully etched above the threshold. Once inside, you are met with an exceptionally wide entrance hall boasting dramatic dark floorboards and soaring 12ft ceilings that command your attention.

To your left lies the expansive master bedroom, a private oasis bathed in natural light through large windows that frame lush garden views. A generous walk-in robe offers abundant floor-to-ceiling storage, while the ensuite is nothing short of breathtaking. A freestanding bath sits dreamily within a bay window surrounded by white shutters beneath a statement chandelier. It is all complemented by Carrara marble hexagonal floor tiles, a marble-topped vanity with dual Villeroy & Boch sinks, gleaming chrome tapware, and a very large walk-in shower.

Across the hall, the formal lounge room captures all-day northern light through floor to ceiling sash windows that open directly onto the wrap-around veranda. This space flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, which also opens to the veranda. The two formal rooms are separated only by beautiful timber archways and fretwork that celebrate the home's timeless character.

The journey continues into the heart of the home: a magnificent kitchen designed by Wyer & Craw. It features stunning arched windows, above a beautiful farmhouse sink, framing views to Mt Coot-tha and providing the perfect vantage point to keep watch over the kids playing in the pool and yard. At the centre of the kitchen is a massive Carrara marble island bench.

Comfortably seating six, it is the perfect spot for the family to enjoy breakfast on the go, casual meals together or coffee breaks with friends. The kitchen features high-end stainless steel Miele appliances, including two ovens (conventional and steam), induction cook top and dishwasher. Adjoining is a butler's pantry with abundant storage and bench space and back-stairs for quick access to the pool.

The kitchen flows effortlessly outward to the veranda, the formal dining room, and inward to the big, bright upstairs family room, complete with a cozy wood-burning fireplace and a continuation of the beautiful wide floorboards underfoot.

Further down the hall, a hidden home office is tucked away behind custom pocket doors featuring stained glass detail meticulously matched to the home's original stained glass. Two spacious children's bedrooms, complete with built-in robes, ceiling fans and lovely garden views, share a beautifully appointed family bathroom, once again showcasing traditional Carrara marble tiling and beautiful chrome tapware. The entire upper level enjoys ducted air-conditioning.

Following the internal stairs down to the ground level, you enter a central mudroom, perfectly positioned between the double garage and the huge undercover poolside recreation area. The mudroom acts as a very functional catch-all space for the family's sporting equipment, school bags, shoes etc. Adjoining this is a spacious, fully fitted laundry and an additional bathroom for guests and kids when using the pool and BBQ area.

A door from the mudroom swings open to reveal an exceptionally large ground-level family room. This expansive room is characterized by lofty 10ft ceilings, ornate cornices, stunning dark timber herringbone floors, and French doors on three sides that dissolve the boundary between indoors and out. Showcasing a wide statement wood-burning fireplace and ceiling-integrated sound system, it is the ultimate venue for teenagers to gather, family movie nights or quiet winter evenings. Tucked away on this level are an additional three big, airconditioned bedrooms, including a second master suite, decorated with gorgeous wallpaper, a stylish ensuite and a custom fitted walk-in robe. A further two generous sized bedrooms are in their own wing, sharing a family bathroom with bath and separate toilet.

Step outside into the sprawling grounds, and the lifestyle offerings reach new heights. An impressive north-facing travertine-tiled pool house overlooks a sparkling 13m x 6.5m sparkling swimming pool. The pool house features a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with a Miele oven, dishwasher, and Vintec wine fridge; ideal for hosting long lunches, big parties, or casual weekend barbecues. Beyond the fully fenced swimming pool, a dream cubby house rests beneath the trees for the younger children, while the expansive flat lawn is perfect for home cricket matches, birthday parties, and pets. The entire 1309m2 of landscaped grounds is all maintained by a 6-zoned irrigation system.

Positioned just 6 kilometres from the Brisbane CBD and mere moments from premier schools including St Joseph's Bardon, Bardon and Ashgrove State Schools, Marist Brothers Ashgrove, and Stuartholme College, as well as a short walk to City Express buses, Goodlife gym, local parks, and walking trails, 'Warwick' offers the rare magic of a secluded country estate in the heart of the inner city.

Whether you are hosting grand celebrations that spill out onto the lawns, gathering loved ones for intimate formal dinners, or simply curling up by the fire on a quiet evening, this is a gracious residence designed to elevate your everyday. It is a home built not just for living, but for creating cherished family memories and milestones, all while offering the ultimate convenience of inner-city life, paired with the space, warmth, and enduring grace your family and friends will treasure for years to come.
