ENTRY LEVEL INNER CITY RIVERFRONT
Situated right on the Brisbane River, this charming, fully renovated Ashgrovian exudes class, relaxed style and a wonderful warmth that can only be achieved through years of being a much loved family home.

This has certainly been achieved through using masses of glass, timber and wide, open spaces as well as atmospheric lighting, elegant finishes and plentiful wall niches for displaying artwork. Colour has also been used to great effect with splashes of red giving the home character and a certain pizzazz, without detracting from the overall style. The colour has also been used to cleverly merge the old with the new so that the house now flows over two generous levels with the saltwater pool and river beyond used as focal features throughout.

Downstairs is dedicated solely to lifestyle, with an open plan layout allowing for the kitchen to interact easily with the covered alfresco entertainment terrace, the tv area, dining space and lounge. The kitchen is one of those rare few that is great to look at, as well as being...
