Discover this award-winning residence, boasting breathtaking city and treetop views from all common areas of the home as well as the pool, BBQ and firepit areas. Take in stunning sunsets or watch magnificent lightning displays over Rockhampton all while feeling protected from the elements by extensive outdoor cover. Situated at the end of a cul-de-sac in the sought-after Hillside Estate, this property is perfectly positioned for security and seclusion on over a half acre allotment with two driveway access. Spanning over 400m² under roof, this impressive two-level home combines a functional layout with contemporary design, making it ideal for large families, formal functions or home based business.
From the formal front covered patio step through the bespoke glass double doors to a welcoming entry space with smart lighting and partition wall separating the sprawling downstairs level from the main foyer. Ascend the timber staircase with its soaring double-height ceiling and impressive glass fixtures to reach the commanding landing space that introduces you to the bright and peaceful upper level. This floor features the primary indoor kitchen, dining and lounge space with superb views, natural light and breezes from the large sliding glass stacker doors and Crimsafe security screens that separate the full-length covered alfresco area with outdoor floor tiles and retractable sunshade blinds. The centrally-located kitchen is a chef's dream equipped with a near new 900mm wide ILVE integrated oven, gas 5-burner cooktop, dishwasher, floor-to-ceiling 2-PAC cabinetry, butlers' hatch and island bench. Adjoining the kitchen there is also a separate spacious walk-in pantry with plenty of shelving for storage and overflow. The lounge area features full-height louvres with electric blockout blinds. This level also houses the home's smart hub, and features ducted air-conditioning, integrated glass shelving perfectly utilised as a small bar, and full height library with smart mood lighting and sound system. From the library, walk through to the private office with a large centre desk, dedicated security monitor, built-in custom cabinetry and its own access to the top floor balcony.
The secluded corner master suite features plantation shutters and smart led mood lighting, a luxurious open en-suite showcasing floor-to-ceiling Italian tiles with a double shower and central bath, in addition to a generous walk-in robe with vanity station. At the far end of this level the combined laundry room and bathroom is functionally separated and continues to showcase the same elegant floor-to-ceiling Italian tiles and 2-PAC cabinetry seen throughout the rest of the home. A secure tiled balcony with a folding clothesline also directly services this practical space via the large glass sliding door. Situated between this washroom and master suite, off the main hallway, you will find another bedroom with built-in mirrored robe, perfect for use as a nursery or small child's room.
Downstairs you will find two generous bedrooms, also with plantation shutters, each with walk-in robes and split-system air-conditioning. This area is serviced by a bathroom with separate toilet and twin vanities. A spacious open-plan family area directly off the two bedrooms lends itself to many options. The second living space boasts smart mood lighting and sound system, and is framed by sliding glass stacker doors and Crimsafe security screens, that lead out to the spectacular entertaining area.
This is where the home truly shines, creating endless opportunities for entertaining and relaxing. The expansive varnished timber veranda leads out to an outdoor tiled kitchen space boasting a built-in stainless steel BBQ, pizza oven, wine fridge and Zip HydroTap. The entire area is well protected with the addition of insulated roofing and outdoor louvres. From here a true paradise awaits separated by glass pool fencing. The saltwater pool is a private oasis cocooned by solid wraparound walls with solar ambient lighting directing your attention to the treetop view in front, that also captures the twinkling lights of the city at night. The eco-deck poolside lounge area with integrated lighting and shower completes this extraordinary space. The other side of the BBQ area leads out to a versatile firepit space with full privacy on all sides and smart festoon lighting that creates a truly magical experience. A massive newly installed custom Trueline carport (9.3m X 8.5m) with smart mood downlights integrated into the insulated roofing panels allows for large social gatherings to extend beyond the main entertaining areas when required. It enables further parking for up to 3 vehicles when accessed by the second driveway. The front driveway leads to a two-car garage with a smart tilt door controller and internal access to the main home. A second secure roller door allows entry to a private indoor/outdoor gym area with a third secure roller door allowing for plenty of cross-breezes and ventilation. Both the garage and gym offer easy clean seamless epoxy flooring.
Further highlights of this property include a second driveway that meanders past a recreational parkland to access a secure two-bay shed (with a mezzanine floor and workshop shelving) at the rear of the property; a grove of fruit trees featuring producing avocado, citrus and peach varieties; fruiting mango and mulberry tree; herb and vegetable garden; solar panels; 2-phase power; and electric gates at both the front and rear entrances. The home is fully fenced, with established low-maintenance gardens, an automatic sprinkler system, Hoselink retractable hose reels and garden solar lighting, pool cover, fire pit with multiple accessories and cover, and a near new Greenworks electric garden tool bundle to make lawn and garden care hassle free. Additional enhancements include integrated bluetooth speakers on both levels (indoor & outdoor), smart security system, floodlights, ducted vacuum system, and ceiling fans throughout.
Only a short walk to the new Capricorn Square retail centre (under development on Nagle Drive) and CQ University, 10 minutes drive to Stockland Shopping Precinct, 5 minutes drive to mountain biking tracks and walking trails in the foothills of Mt Archer and 30 minutes drive to the seaside town of Yeppoon. With so many incredible features, this enviable property must be seen to be truly appreciated. We invite you to reach out today to arrange your private viewing!
