A landmark estate in Chelmer's prestigious Laurel Avenue, this architecturally designed, Hamptons-style home presents an unrivalled riverfront lifestyle. Occupying 1472sqm with a private jetty and breath-taking vistas across the Brisbane River, the property offers residents maximum flexibility with many multipurpose rooms, living zones and entertaining spaces.

Adorned with a neutral palette to suit all decors, the interiors reveal beautiful Grey Ironbark floors, Italian and Spanish tiles, wooden shutters and paned windows, which flood the home with natural light.
