Your Domain: A sleek, modern Brisbane home so grand, it has two residences and cinemas

Close enough to Brisbane for the convenience, but far enough to become a private sanctuary. This dream home in Chandler is perfect for stripped-back, minimalist living with a luxury twist.

Set back from the road by a long driveway and encased by one hectare of land, the expansive 1500-square-metre primary residence and its accompanying guest house feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle.

558 London Road, Chandler.

The five-bedroom and seven-bathroom primary residence stretches across a single level packed with a room for every activity you can think of – a dedicated gym, cinema room, multiple studies, butlers pantry and wet bar. A second basement level is carved into the hillside portion of the home, with space to park 16 vehicles.

Luxury homes are often lavishly opulent in their design, but you won’t find anything overt here. Sleek, sophisticated and modern is what the house prides itself on, and the peacefulness it creates is a luxury within itself.

Natural stones, timbers and a monochromatic palette keep things pared back and contemporary. A waterfall edged, natural stone island bench in the kitchen and wall-wide stone fireplace adds touches of spectacle without becoming overstated.

Like all great Queensland homes, the magic is in their outdoor living areas. The home wraps around a central pool, complete with poolside pavilion. Just in case the indoor cinema isn’t enough, the pavilion has its own electronic screen, doubling as an outdoor cinema. A fully-equipped dining area with barbecues and a woodfire oven make enjoying a balmy Brisbane night too easy.

The secondary residence or “apartment” is bigger than some city apartments. It has two bedrooms, kitchenette, laundry, double carport and a balcony.

Beyond the direct confines of the buildings is one hectare of land encompassing a cubby house for the kids, a dam and a creek. But you’ll find the adults playground in the dedicated 45-square-metre wine cellar on the basement level, with its own tasting facilities and kitchenette.

The kitchen boasts a stunning waterfall edged natural stone island bench.

The home is currently listed on Domain by Tyson Clarke at Queensland Sotheby’s International Realty, asking for offers of over $6 million.

Your Domain airs at 10am on Saturdays on Nine. Catch up on all episodes on 9Now.
