82 Coolibah Street, Bardon, Qld 4065

Perfect for a growing family, this five-bedroom dual living executive family residence in Bardon ticks all the boxes for a near city Brisbane lifestyle.

Discover the essence of true dual living with a self-contained one-bedroom residence on the ground level completely separate to the upper level four-bedroom family home.

Built in 1990 and more recently renovated, the home has three spacious bedrooms with built-ins on the upper level, plus the master suite. Timber stairs off the central hallway lead down to the garage and second residence. 

Overlooking the living areas and pool, the modern kitchen is a cook's dream with its generous bench spaces, abundant storage and spacious butlers pantry. Crisp white cabinetry, Caesarstone benchtops and tiled splashbacks are complemented by high end appliances including a Fischer & Paykel gas stove, Miele oven and stainless dishwasher. The kitchen features dual sinks, a skylight over the bench, and sensor operated bench lighting under the overhead cupboards. Two breakfast bars, indoor and outdoor, link the kitchen to the dining space within and the pool outside where alfresco dining allows inhabitants to enjoy our beautiful Queensland weather.

Off the kitchen is a home office with picture windows overlooking the pool, creating a peaceful work environment, and enhancing work-life balance at home.

In the heart of the home are the lounge, dining and library areas with full room-length bi-fold doors with plantation shutters opening out onto an expansive timber deck and pool beyond.

The enormous L shaped verandah has space for large outdoor dining table and chairs at one end beyond the pool as well as other lounges and easy chairs. The deck spills out onto a back garden with a lovely grassed sitting area. Steps at the rear of the grassed area lead to a lower garden and back access to the second residence downstairs. Very private with mature plants, the garden is reminiscent of rainforest.

The large carpeted master suite is a sublime sanctuary with a full wall of built- in robes, plantation shutters, its own private balcony overlooking the rear garden, and privacy screened windows out towards the pool. The adjoining ensuite has a large walk-in shower, modern vanity and WC in the corner.

A stylish recently renovated main bathroom off this hallway features a walk-in glass shower, monochrome colour scheme with white wall tiles and benchtop and dark tiled floors. Luxuriate in the deep bath positioned beside a privacy screened window. Timber cabinetry adds warmth, a modern toilet bowl sits with subtlety to the side, and a ducted extraction fan above the shower ensures moisture does not linger.

The upper residence has timber and carpeted floors throughout, ducted airconditioning, ceiling fans and downlights. Solidly built rendered brick with a steel frame, the property is fully fenced for extra peace of mind.

Downstairs, a generous garage fits two cars comfortably with extra space for storage. Freshly painted floors and lovely brick wall features create another entertaining area if the cars are moved out. The covered driveway offers space for an additional two cars to park. At the back of the garage area is a modern laundry and wine cellar which could also double as a workshop and extra storage area.

The lower level residence is ideal for independent living for young adults or as a teenagers retreat, and great for keeping ageing grandparents close but still in their own space. The separate space also would work well for a home business or clinic. Freshly painted, it features a spacious bedroom with built-ins overlooking the rear garden, and a lovely living/lounge area with access through sliding glass doors to a peaceful sitting area in the back garden. The kitchen and separate dining area overlook the side garden, and there is a very large bathroom. There is reverse cycle airconditioning and ceiling fans. This apartment style second home within the house would also be great for visiting friends and relatives to stay. 

Ideally located close to the community hubs of Bowman Park and Bardon Bowls Club, there is also a fitness centre nearby, plus public transport, shops at Bardon or Ashgrove, restaurants and great schools. We do not expect a home of this calibre to last long in market so do not delay your inspection. We look forward to meeting you at our next open home and to answering any questions you may have in the meantime.
