As far as family homes go, this one is the kind to make buyers go weak at the knees.

And that’s not just because it has been carefully constructed and laid out for perfectly practical family needs. It’s also very beautiful, with stunning architecture and interiors that have been designed to make everyone feel at home in an instant.

Agent Judi O’Dea says while address of the home, located in the highly sought-after avenues of Ashgrove, is a clear selling point, the home itself has been renovated in a spectacular fashion: “What they’ve done is capture the true essence of family living in a contemporary setting,” she says.

Set over a split level floor plan, the house is luxurious yet warm and consists of four bedrooms, three of which have ensuites, a contemporary kitchen with connected lounge, dining and outdoor deck, leading out to a large pool and expansive backyard. The house is set on an elevated 966 square metre block with beautiful views across Ashgrove.

Retaining the home’s original cottage facade, the house is a beautiful integration of the old with the new. Located within walking distance of excellent schools, shops and parks, it’s also close to well-serviced public transport.

Agent: Robbie Neller, Ray White Peregian Beach, 0473 577 828

Spectacular is the only way to describe the views from this tri-level house at Peregian Beach.

With 360-degree views of the hinterland and white water views across to the ocean, the pictures it creates from inside the house is nothing short of breath-taking, agent Robbie Neller says.

“It’s truly beautiful – those panoramic views are very special,” he says. “And the other thing is, the actual house is huge – the size of it has not been compromised.”

It’s no over-exaggeration. Architect designed, the floor plan is clever as well as expansive, incorporating five bedrooms, separate study, three bathrooms plus powder room, entertainer’s kitchen, massive rumpus room with built-in bar, open plan lounge, dining room, huge deck and stunning infinity-edge pool with hinterland views.

This is all set on an elevated 729 square metre block only 200 metres from the beach and a short drive from Peregian’s amenities.

Agent: Christine Rudolph, Ray White New Farm, 0400 943 984

As if the prospect of living in New Farm’s “Refinery” building wasn’t enough, this beautifully appointed riverfront apartment takes entertaining to the next level.

Agent Christine Rudolph says the building is admired for its timeless heritage-listed charm but because of that, many of the apartments have restrictions on balconies. But not this one.

“What has been quite captivating is that this apartment has an enormous riverfront entertainer’s terrace, plus a beautiful grassed courtyard at the front, plus a second terrace out the back,” she says.

“It’s got a variety of indoor outdoor entertaining spaces and the perfect north-easterly aspect … we’ve had a tremendous response so far with about 100 groups through in three weeks.”

It’s no wonder why. Beautifully styled, the apartment feels elegant yet contemporary, showcasing modern features like the oversized glass windows to maximise views and light, impressive “industrial” spaces, state-of-the-art lighting and customised cabinetry.

Yet the history of the building is cleverly integrated throughout, with original 19th century timber beams and exposed brickwork lending a lovely warmth.

The apartment is sizeable – 220 square metres – and features high ceilings, spacious living areas and oversized bedrooms.

The river views are panoramic and stretch down the curve of the Brisbane River and across to Hawthorne.

Agent: Tori Verco, Belle Property Wilston, 0431 916 609

This charming Queenslander positioned on a huge north-facing 810 square metre block at Windsor is in fairly raw condition but offers a myriad of possibilities for the astute purchaser.

Set on two lots, it’s being sold alongside the house next door, 23 Hamley Street; buyers have the option to purchase one or both properties but together they make up over 1600 square metres of land.

Agent Tori Verco says the home has exciting potential: “Either create your dream family home in the perfect location, or subdivide the block and build townhouses or a family home at the back – your options are endless,” she says.

The house itself has three bedrooms, the master with a beautiful bay window, a north-facing verandah and original period features such as VJ walls, stained glass windows and high ceilings with intricate fretwork. Renovation plans for a large four-bedroom house are available.

This sought-after inner-city location has easy access to the airport link tunnel connecting the northern arterial and the East-West Arterial to the Inner City Bypass (ICB) and Clem Jones 7 (CLEM7).
