A Hamptons-style retreat in exclusive Bridgeman Downs is for sale.
Occupying 2.5 acres on aptly named Retreat Street, this extraordinary home provides a luxurious, secluded sanctuary. Designed by architect Richard Foley, the home is a combination of Queensland Colonial and Hamptons styles. The home has two expansive levels, with multiple living and dining spaces, both inside and out, to accommodate practical family life and entertaining on a range of scales. The central gourmet kitchen is the heart of the home, with adjacent open-plan living and dining areas. The home is a showroom of outstanding craftsmanship using materials such as Blackbutt timber, Comerford sandstone, and Western Australian Jarrah, and with features such as ornate skirtings and architraves, colonial-style cornices, and high ceilings. The four bedrooms are large, and the home has a theatre, office, library, and games room. The vast grounds contain a pool, tennis court, and separate guest house. While the house is secluded and quiet, it is close to shops, schools and public transport. The Brisbane CBD is within a short drive.
