BRISBANE’S most glamorous penthouse has hit the market, offering three levels of living with panoramic city views.
The five-bedroom, five-bathroom skyhome at 801/8 Kyabra St, Newstead features an extraordinary rooftop terrace comprised of outdoor dining, an open fire pit and manicured gardens all serviced by a large wet bar.
Relax in the heated infinity-edge swimming pool and spa, or enjoy drinks on the luxe deck as the sun sets over the CBD.
The views across Brisbane are simply sensational.
“We bought the property as a shell two years ago, and I did all the design work,” seller Jordana Stott said.
“It took eight months to complete so we’ve been enjoying our hard work for the past 16 months. It was technically three levels of concrete. Level seven had been finished a little bit but level eight and nine hadn’t been touched.”
The sprawling 962sq m inner-city home has a floorplan which features not only the incredible rooftop terrace, but two kitchens, four large bathrooms, a master suite, media room, sprawling open-plan living and dining room, two wet bars, a pool and spa.
“It’s our city retreat in the sky,” Ms Stott said.
“It’s actually very quiet considering it’s in the city, so you can sit outside in the garden with a glass of wine in the sun and relax. It would be a wonderful home for both a family or corporate couple wanting their own skyhome.”
Finer details such as Versace and gold cork wallpapers, and bespoke Timothy Oulton chandeliers set this landmark home apart from others.
There are also two fireplaces, double showers in every bathroom, a dressing room, three large car parks and a lift servicing each level.
“We spend most of our time on the middle level in the living area, kitchen and by the pool,” Ms Stott said.
“You can be preparing a meal and see right across the city.”
Ms Stott is looking for a new project, so her dream home is now on the market.
“It’s probably one of the first real skyhouses in Brisbane so I think that’s super exciting,” she said.
“It’s very, very special.”
The property is scheduled to go to auction on Tuesday, November 13 at Ray White New Farm’s Auction Under the Stars event commencing 6pm at X Cargo.
Managing the marketing campaign is Ray White New Farm’s Tom Lyne.
“I don’t think I’ve seen anything remotely comparable to this, and I’ve inspected a lot of penthouses,” Mr Lyne said.
“The level of finish is done to the highest of standards, but what really sets this property apart is the view from the swimming pool and rooftop terrace, as well as its ability to offer self-contained accommodation.”
Mr Lyne said listings of this quality and style were rare across Queensland.
“This is a property you’d see in Los Angeles or Sydney,” he said.
“It’s pushing the boundaries in terms of what has been on the market in Brisbane before.”
