“This home truly captures the essence of modern living—Paul Owen's design makes it feel both sophisticated and incredibly easy to maintain,” Andrew Cumming told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.

“The blend of thoughtful architecture and low-maintenance features means you can enjoy all the perks of city living without the usual hassle,” he explained. 

“As always with Paul's work, it's the meticulous attention to detail that truly stands out—from the incredible blend of materials to the perfectly proportioned living spaces, which feel both generous and intimate in all the right ways.”

Inside, the home merges its innovative aesthetics with functional spaces to create an ideal sanctuary for contemporary city living.

High-quality finishes include brick, tile, brass, marble and timber, while a carefully considered layout encourages connection to all spaces.

Speaking to LUXURY LIST WEEKEND, Paul Owen said the Princess Street house is designed for cleverly compact inner city living.

"This home is designed to achieve multiple modes of living: private and intimate as well as spacious and welcoming … by combining an open, modernist floorplan with comfortable nook spaces," Paul told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.

"The living areas at ground level sit in a courtyard-garden environment, borrowing views and light from the Queensland character neighbourhood. The material palette of brick and painted concrete gives the house an inner city warehouse character … offset by lush arbour-planting to create a garden atmosphere."

The sunken lounge room, with custom-designed built-in seating, flows seamlessly to the courtyard, epitomizing this focus on effortless indoor-outdoor living.

Steps away, the sleek kitchen boasts wall-to-wall cabinetry, premium appliances, brass tapware, and Carrara marble benchtops. It features two sinks, one with a Zip tap, a double integrated fridge and separate fridge drawer, while a bespoke dining table adds a touch of elegance to the space.

The private patio offers an ideal space for entertaining, featuring a wrought iron fireplace and an integrated BBQ. A heated magnesium plunge pool provides a luxurious retreat within the home surrounded by gardens. 

Speaking to LUXURY LIST WEEKEND, landscape designer Stephen Clegg said, "Our client sought a bespoke, dry-tolerant garden addressing architectural integrity and the integration of internal and external living. The design responds by rewarding the owner with an easily maintained celebration of contrasting forms, dressed in shades and textures of green. It complements a desire for graceousness and simplicity of lifestyle."

Upstairs, the residence hosts three spacious bedrooms with built-in storage and two study desks. The stylish master suite features a powder room and the innovative exterior casement windows are not only aesthetically pleasing but functional, designed to angle perfectly to shield the interiors from the sun. 

The galley-style bathroom is designed with a separate shower, vanity, and second powder room and a loft study set under a skylight provides a peaceful workspace, perfect for productivity.

A double garage with a huge connection to the kitchen allows you to admire the car you drive, adding a unique touch to the home. Other details include custom windows and fixed louvres designed to optimize natural light and airflow and large format doors slide away to access the contemporary arbour. There is also a Tesla Powerwall solution for energy efficiency, solar panels, ducted air conditioning throughout, secure entry to the foyer, two-car accommodation, and a storage shed.

Nestled in the historic and dynamic Petrie Terrace, this property is moments from The Barracks, Palace Cinemas, Suncorp Stadium and Roma Street Parkland and close to Paddington's restaurants, bars, and coffee shops.
