Contemporary Living with Exceptional Outdoor Appeal in Coveted Riverside Pocket

Space to gather, entertain and grow defines this impressive two-storey Chelmer residence, thoughtfully designed for contemporary family life while complementing the suburb's traditional character. An architect-led internal refurbishment in 2021 has further enhanced the five-bedroom home, introducing crisp interiors that sit beautifully against extensive glazing and leafy 405sqm surrounds.
Everyday living unfolds across a substantial open-plan interior, where a north-eastern aspect, high ceilings and abundant natural light create an inviting atmosphere. Distinct living and dining settings sit comfortably alongside one another, while timber floors bring warmth and open outlooks keep the rear garden firmly in view.
Wide sliding doors retract to the covered deck, perfect for gatherings, long lunches and relaxed afternoons. Beyond, the fully fenced backyard provides genuine room for family life. A broad, level lawn gives children and pets plenty of space to play, framed by established, low-maintenance gardens with automatic irrigation and a wonderfully private outlook.
At the heart of the ground floor, the modern open kitchen is equally suited to everyday meals and entertaining. A substantial breakfast bar is accompanied by extensive cabinetry, abundant storage and preparation space, gas cooking and a suite of integrated appliances.
Upstairs, all five bedrooms are privately separated from the main living areas. The main bedroom enjoys the home's north-eastern aspect and includes a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. Three additional bedrooms feature built-in wardrobes, with two extending onto a private balcony. A family bathroom incorporates a separate bath and shower, complemented by a separate toilet. Further appointments include new carpet upstairs, ducted air-conditioning with additional split-system units, ceiling fans, a ground-floor powder room and separate laundry. Solar panels, Crimsafe, sensor lighting, dedicated storage and a double garage add further practicality.
Chelmer's coveted riverside lifestyle is close at hand, with leafy parklands, playgrounds and scenic riverwalks offering plenty of opportunity to get outdoors. Honour Avenue's cafés, restaurants and everyday conveniences are nearby, while Chelmer station provides an easy connection to the CBD. Indooroopilly Shopping Centre and UQ St Lucia are also within easy reach, alongside a superb selection of highly regarded private and state schools throughout Brisbane's inner west.
Combining five-bedroom versatility, impressive entertaining spaces and a substantial private backyard, this is an exceptional family offering in one of Brisbane's most desirable riverside suburbs. Enquire today.
