Previously serving as the fire station's facilities hub, the residence's ground level encompasses a spacious open-plan living and dining area with dual-height ceilings. Accented by integrated bench seating and commanding picturesque garden views, this airy central space is anchored by an impeccable gourmet kitchen displaying a large island bench, a butler's pantry and ample cupboard storage. A suite of premium Miele, V-Zug and Smeg appliances promises hassle-free meal preparation.

Ensuring superb indoor-outdoor connection, timber bi-fold doors open out to a sprawling fully-fenced grassed rear yard fringed by established gardens. Entertainers will love the home's pizza oven, while families will appreciate the vast amounts of space offered for children and pets. Additionally, a flourishing orchard boasts mandarin, orange, lime, kumquat, finger lime, bay tree, kaffir lime and olive tree varieties, as well as four different types of lemon trees. This is a private oasis waiting to be enjoyed.

Finishing the ground level is a generous lounge or retreat area, plus a studio/office and an ensuited fifth/guest bedroom.

Upstairs, another lounge area links to a covered balcony. Featuring an entertainment ready bench, this sensational outdoor space looks out across tree-lined Mountjoy Terrace to Moreton Bay and its islands beyond.

Also opening out to the balcony via French doors, a sizeable master bedroom has a walk-in robe. An attached ensuite showcases heritage-style refinement with terrazzo feature tiling and a marble-topped vanity. Three additional bedrooms are accompanied by a well-appointed main bathroom, which has a shower over a clawfoot bath.

Complete with a storage-packed shed/workshop and off-street parking for multiple vehicles, the residence also includes an internal laundry and air-conditioning. Enhancing the home's character, original equipment panels from the fire station and an antique fireman's pole remain.
