Just 15km from Brisbane’s CBD in prestigious inner Pullenvale sits Springfields, a timeless country-style estate offering a peaceful retreat from the hectic pace of city living. 

The approximately 2.5 acre (1ha) property features lush green grounds, rolling lawns and floodlit tennis court with adjoining pavilion, as well as a mini-orchard, raised veggie garden and custom chook house.

Originally two separate Queenslanders; one dating back to 1890 and the other 1910, the character homes were relocated to 80 Huntingdale Street Pullenvale in the late 90’s. 

In 2019, the two-level home was meticulously renovated and restored by renowned Ivan Gastaldon Architects and CGH Constructions, creating of an elegant, family residence that seamlessly blends the grace of the past with the functionality of the present.

Speaking to LUXURY LIST WEEKEND, Director Ivan Gastaldon said, "This Queenslander is surrounded by leafy open space. The reworking and restoration of the existing home enabled the provision of contemporary living whilst staying true to its traditional features."

"We consolidated the living areas to the rear of the home to provide connectivity with pool zones to suit the practical needs of a young family. Moulded timber detailing was added to fuse timeless traditional architecture with the modern way of life."

“Springfields is the best renovated home I’ve seen in over 20 years of selling luxury properties,” Rachael Spinks told LUXURY LIST WEEKEND.

“An exceptional level of thought and detail has gone into the renovation and the quality of the build and materials used is next level.”

A long winding drive adorned with jacarandas, and an impressive fig-tree as its stunning centrepiece, heralds your arrival at the classically beautiful Queenslander residence with wide, wrap-around verandas. 

Interiors are rich with character detail including wide central hallway with original wide hoop pine timber floors and soaring pressed metal ceilings.

A centrally located library/reading room acts as a gateway between extremely generous formal rooms and the recently recreated casual living zone, a light-filled area with 13 foot ceilings comprising the casual dining and family rooms and the generous provincial kitchen.

There are four family bedrooms on this level, each with custom built-in robes and garden outlooks, while the private master bedroom is a peaceful retreat incorporating a walk-in robe, bay window with built-in window seat and an ensuite with under-floor heating, generous soaking tub, large frameless shower recess and large farmhouse style vanity with oversized sink for two.

The lower level enjoys an oversized recreation room, a sixth bedroom and fourth bathroom, making it ideal for hosting guests on extended stays or as a space for an adult child living at home. The well-equipped laundry with direct access to the outside clothesline is also on this level. There is also a custom-built wine cellar (with French Winemaster cellar conditioning) and a home gym/pilates studio. A private, north-facing home office with separate entrance, for those who would like the flexibility to work from home, is tucked away next to the car accommodation with additional storage and workshop.

Outside, the private, free-form pool, surrounded by French-cut Travertine paving, adjoins a large rear deck with built-in Beefeater BBQ, ceiling fans and built-in speakers, as well as an impressive outdoor wood fireplace wrapped in stone for entertaining in winter.
