A palatial masterpiece boasting a commanding riverfront position in a prized Brisbane pocket has captivated the market, quickly becoming one of the most-viewed properties on realestate.com.au.
The remarkable three-storey home at 132 Virginia Avenue in Hawthorne boasts five bedrooms, six bathrooms, a mammoth 1118sqm block, and 27m of absolute private river frontage.
Capturing an uninterrupted panorama of the Brisbane River, the jaw-dropping home was brought to life by visionary developers Ben and Kirstie Moore, who acquired the original property in 2015.
Mr Moore revealed to The Australian newspaper that 90% of the house was stripped down to the bare bones to improve and “add value” through upgraded features and an improved floor plan.
The remarkable redesign included expanding the living zones and reconfiguring the ground level into an “entertainer’s dream” of open plan living and dining that spill to the outdoors.
Mr Moore referred to the home as “party central.”
“It’s perfect for someone who has large gatherings and entertains to the next level,” selling agent Kyle Pitman of The Agency added.
And there is an abundance of opportunity to do just that, with sun-soaked alfresco spaces that overlook a sprawling manicured lawn perfect for croquet, a heated swimming pool and a 16-seat built-in fire pit.
Or if you prefer to take the party to the water, that’s possible too, with the property enjoying its own private 12m pontoon for boats of up to 60 feet.
For budding chefs, the home comes with not one but two kitchens, including a marble appointed caterer’s kitchen with a Teppanyaki hotplate and Zesti pizza oven.
Elsewhere inside, there’s a gymnasium and home office, commercial grade eight person lift, and four car remote lock-up garage.
Mr Pitman revealed that strong interest in the once-in-a-lifetime property has come predominantly from local Brisbane buyers, but with further inquiry from New South Wales and Victoria.
The home will undergo a private sale by tender, which closes on April 28 at 1pm.
