Only seven kilometres from Brisbane’s CBD, this four-bedroom home designed by the renowned Profile Architecture boasts impeccable attention-to-detail.

Thoroughly modern, the tri-level residence boasts high end finishes throughout including spotted gum hardwood floors, Gareth Ashton fittings, elements of polished concrete and banks of full-height glass.

Director of Profile Architecture, Michael Fiumara told WILLIAMS MEDIA, "Rawson Street Residence incorporates a contemporary edge whilst maintaining the character and integrity of the original home. The architecture has been planned to incorporate passive cooling and ventilation which takes advantage of its site context and aspect."

"The material palette of concrete, blockwork, spotted gum timber and plywood form a robust extension to the Queenslander vernacular. The exposed structure and simplistic detailing enhance the bold architectural form and expression." Michael continued.

The character facade of the original home belies what exists behind, current owners, Tom and Nina told WILLIAMS MEDIA, "We enjoy people's reaction of complete surprise when they enter. The large void and clever design gives a feeling of space and light usually found in much bigger homes."

The property’s middle level contains a spacious open-plan living and dining area which seamlessly connects to a covered rear deck. Steps away is the state-of-the-art kitchen equipped with 60-millimetre Caesarstone benchtops and high end European appliances including a Pitt under-mount cooktop and 900mm Bosch oven.

"The gas hobbs of the cooktop set into the Caesarstone benchtop make for a single wipe clean after cooking." Tom continued.

Entertainment options continue downstairs, with a covered rear patio featuring a heated in-ground swimming pool and an outdoor kitchen including a Smeg barbecue. This level, referred to by Tom as 'man-land' has a wet bar complete with beer tap, and high-definition projector.  

A powder room and laundry are also contained on the ground level. "With my family interstate and Nina's overseas we have often had people visiting. The clever design and separation of the bedrooms and multiple living and entertaining spaces has meant having guests to stay is easy" Tom explained.

The third level contains a lavish ensuited master bedroom with a private deck and custom walk-in robe. Two additional bedrooms fitted with built-in robes are serviced by a well-appointed main bathroom, while a fourth bedroom and another full bathroom are located on the middle level.

Additionally, the home boasts a secure dual garage, a dedicated workshop/gym, plenty of storage, fully ducted air-conditioning and a multi-panel Bosch security system.

The property enjoys absolute tranquillity whilst retaining proximity to shops and dining options. Tom and Nina described the neighbourhood as, "A really family friendly neighbourhood, reminiscent of the past where kids drift in and out of different houses and play in the streets." 

Minutes from the Eagle Junction train station, the home is within the Eagle Junction State School and Kedron State High School catchment areas while Clayfield College, Saint Margaret’s Anglican Girls School and Mount Alvernia College are also nearby
