Commanding an elevated corner position in one of Coorparoo's most tightly held residential enclaves, this remarkable three-level residence is a home of rare scale and substance.

Coming to market for the first time in over 30 years and set across more than 800m² of prime blue-chip land, 26 White Avenue is framed by established gardens and brings together the enduring character of its Queenslander origins with a truly exceptional contemporary expansion.

Soaring ceilings, hardwood timber floors, walls of glass and extraordinary proportions create a residence that feels open to its heart. Big, beautiful and filled with natural light, the central living, dining and kitchen domain showcases soaring original decorative ceilings, meticulously retained as a striking reminder of the home's heritage.

Overlooking the living spaces, pool and gardens, the kitchen is designed on an equally impressive scale. A generous central island anchors an abundance of cabinetry and preparation space, while spectacular illuminated granite with natural quartz veining introduces texture, warmth and individuality. A wall of glass opens the entire space to outdoor entertaining, creating an effortless connection between home, pool and garden.

Outside, an approximately 60,000-litre concrete swimming pool takes centre stage, surrounded by lawn and thoughtfully established landscaping. Hardy Australian natives mingle with jasmine, orchids, ferns and flowering plantings, while cascading greenery softens the raised garden beds. Lush, established and remarkably low maintenance, the gardens give the home privacy and a beautiful sense of calm.

Around the lower level, the mood changes again. A charming cottage garden filled with scented and flowering plantings, native species and productive raised vegetable gardens creates an unexpectedly intimate retreat, while an extra-wide covered alfresco terrace provides another superb space to gather and entertain.

Occupying the entire upper level, the primary suite is a private haven of grand proportions. Plush, high-quality new carpeting and soft sheers frame an extraordinary northern outlook across the treetops to the full Brisbane city skyline. There is space for a substantial sitting area, a private viewing deck overlooking the pool and gardens, a dedicated walk-in robe ready to be tailored into a dream dressing room, and a generous ensuite. A true retreat in every sense.

Across the main level, rich timber flooring, high ceilings and ornate detailing continue. A custom-fitted library with floor-to-ceiling timber cabinetry creates a beautiful home office, reading room or quiet retreat, while additional bedrooms and well-appointed bathrooms provide flexibility for family and guests. An enclosed western veranda with lockable plantation shutters creates yet another all-season living space - private, breezy and protected from the afternoon sun.

Downstairs delivers an entirely different dimension to the home. A huge secondary living and games area is complemented by a dedicated, fully air-conditioned split-level cinema, complete with projector, screen and fitted leather seating. Two further bedrooms are positioned on this level, including a generous suite with its own ensuite and walk-in robe area, creating exceptional separation for teenagers, extended family or guests.

An enormous laundry with wraparound benching, extensive cabinetry and an oversized soaking tub reinforces just how comprehensively this home has been designed. Polished cork flooring, abundant storage and provision for a secondary kitchenette add even greater versatility to a level that could evolve effortlessly with the needs of its next family.

And then there is the garage. A wide remote-controlled gated entrance from White Avenue leads beneath the home to an extraordinary suspended-concrete garage wrapping around the lower level, with accommodation for six-plus vehicles. Additional off-street parking and a separate two-car carport accessed from Lade Street make the scale of vehicle accommodation here genuinely remarkable. For the collector, enthusiast, large family or fitness devotee, this is space to dream - cars, bikes, a serious home gym, workshop or storage - and an offering rarely, if ever, encountered on this scale so close to the city.

Throughout, thoughtful details reveal themselves slowly. Yet for all its scale, there is a softness here. Green outlooks appear from almost every level. Established gardens wrap around the home. Wide verandas, terraces and living spaces provide places to retreat throughout the day, with genuine breakout zones for every age and stage of family life.

Grand and honest, private without feeling removed, and substantial in a way modern homes rarely are, 26 White Avenue is an exceptional Coorparoo residence - a home created with vision, built with permanence and ready to evolve beautifully with your family.
