Grand Riverside Residence on 1,022sqm in Chelmer’s Distinguished Laurel Avenue

Few streets in Chelmer carry the distinction of Laurel Avenue, and this substantial residence makes an equally memorable impression. Created by Thomas & Alexander Designs and built by Griffin & Knowlman in 1997, the home draws on classic architectural influences through shuttered windows, gabled rooflines, elegant detailing and a commanding façade, with approximately 500sqm of living and entertaining space unfolding across two beautifully considered levels.
The entry makes an immediate impression, with marble flooring, a sweeping staircase and soaring void introducing interiors of remarkable character. Formal living and dining rooms sit to the front, distinguished by detailed cornices, wallpaper and elegant windows. Deeper within the home, herringbone timber flooring brings warmth to the expansive informal living and dining areas, where a fireplace creates a natural focal point.
At the centre, the Gaggenau-appointed kitchen is substantial and highly practical, with extensive cabinetry, abundant preparation space, a central island, breakfast bar and adjoining pantry. Its position keeps cooking closely connected to family life and entertaining, while the floorplan extends effortlessly to a substantial, private alfresco overlooking the rear garden and swimming pool.
Across 1,022sqm, the grounds provide an exceptional setting for family life. Established planting frames an expansive lawn, while the saltwater swimming pool occupies its own private corner, preserving valuable, grassed space for children and pets. Mature greenery surrounds the garden and entertaining areas, creating a beautiful sense of seclusion.
Upstairs, the sweeping staircase leads to a beautifully composed upper level, where a separate living room and balcony provide an additional retreat. The master suite enjoys a private setting with a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, accompanied by three further bedrooms of impressive proportions. One has its own walk-in wardrobe and ensuite, while a third bathroom serves the remaining bedrooms.
Considered detailing continues throughout, with plantation shutters and quality window dressings complementing the home's traditional character. A dedicated office/library, extensive storage, upgraded ducted air-conditioning, three-car garaging, gas hot-water system and water tank further enhance its impressive family credentials.
Laurel Avenue has long been regarded as one of Chelmer's most picturesque streets, its mature tree canopy integral to the suburb's character. Chelmer station, the Brisbane River and riverwalks, Indooroopilly Shopping Centre, Graceville Memorial Park and Indooroopilly Golf Club are all within easy reach, alongside Graceville State School, St Peters Lutheran College and Brigidine College.
For families seeking architectural character, significant land and exceptional versatility in one of Brisbane's most established riverside suburbs, 42 Laurel Avenue presents a distinguished opportunity. Enquire today.
