Every so often you come across a property that literally takes your breath away. From the street, 26 Chester Street is discreet and private, while still being in the heart of Brisbane's cultural and entertainment hub. Through the muraled entrance hall this property explodes into something incredibly special. Huge open spaces, massive ceilings and grand features painstakingly pieced together by hand are the trademarks of the common areas in this home.
It is difficult to imagine the lifestyle implications of living in such an astonishing, architecturally designed masterpiece that is so centrally located, so private and so extravagant it is a once in a generation offering. However, the owners have committed to selling on or before auction day. So this amazing opportunity, and one of the most iconic addresses in Brisbane, is going to be the talk of the town.
Perched on 579m of premier inner city land, this home has been designed to utilise and maximise every inch of the block. Even with the amazing and open internal spaces this residence is 828m under roof with the zoning allowing for the end purchaser to add another level. So in terms of living space, the sky is the limit. Upon entry, floor to ceiling glass, clever design and an overwhelming sense of grandeur characterises the common areas which are at the heart of this residence.
A beautiful water feature spanning the height of the wall dominates the first impression and sets the tone for what to expect throughout the rest of the home. Pieced together by hand it creates such a tranquil setting, that it's easy to forget you are in the centre of Australia's fastest growing city.
Extravagance is the word with 26 Chester Street and from every crack to every crevice this home has it covered. The formal dining room houses a giant aquarium as the centrepiece and adds a new element to entertaining whether it's with family and friends or distinguished guests. One of the most unique and alluring features of this property is the flexibility to personalise and modify the floor plan to suit any requirements. Although, to be honest it is difficult to imagine how you can improve on something that has been designed, built and maintained to an impeccable standard.
A key feature of this property is the master suite. A self-contained section of this home which has amazing city views, a private and fully equipped kitchen and lounge room. This is truly the ultimate parental escape or private hideout. Upstairs, enjoy the fully equipped viewing and entertaining deck providing expansive views of the entire Brisbane skyline. Depending on requirements, a disused pool currently masked by a large deck can be reinstated at minimal cost, so in the middle of summer you can relax in your own private roof top pool while kicking back and enjoying unsurpassed views - a genuinely unique experience.
Let it be known and make no mistake; this masterpiece is unlike anything you have ever seen. So if a combination of grandeur, elegance and practicality is what you are looking for, then the wait is well and truly over!
