Gracing the leafy avenues of Tennyson, 27 King Arthur Terrace stands as a Modern Colonial masterpiece, revelling in glorious, elevated views over the Brisbane River on a 1,422sqm allotment. Bayden Goddard of BGD Architects has masterfully orchestrated a home that serves as a family sanctuary while offering the refined elegance demanded by its esteemed location.
The stately exterior is a harmony of classic lines and verdant landscaping, where manicured gardens pave the way to a welcoming entrance that instantly conveys the home’s character. Stepping through the foyer sets a tone of understated luxury, the high ceilings and the play of natural light inviting a journey into the heart of this exquisite residence. The enduring allure of classic stone, vaulted and coffered ceilings and rich timber finishes bestow a sense of permanence, ensuring that the design remains as relevant tomorrow as it is today.
The enviable gourmet kitchen displays a tasteful blend of Caesarstone and oak and cherry benchtops, a double butlers sink, Perrin and Rowe tapware, an island bench for casual dining, a freestanding Ilve oven, a built-in Meile warming drawer and dishwasher, rangehood, butler’s pantry, a cold room and ample cupboard storage. A scullery corridor leads to the laundry with an adjoining study space with built in custom cabinetry. Anchoring the combined dining and formal living area with its soaring double ceiling height voids and elegant chandelier, the light filled space features a gas fireplace and custom cabinetry.
The living and dining areas flow effortlessly onto al fresco spaces, where you can indulge in the tranquil views of the Brisbane River, landscaped gardens or inground saltwater swimming pool, all offering an oasis of serenity. Off the large, grassed area downstairs, a timber walkway guides you down to the water's edge, where your private 8x3 metre pontoon installed only last year awaits.
The residence holds a perfect balance of formal and informal spaces spread across three levels including a dedicated office, a sitting room with built in custom cabinetry, a library, a rumpus room featuring a sandstone gas fireplace, a wine cellar that has been built into the sandstone cliff and a dedicated space above the garage, perfect for working from home.
In a private wing upstairs the master suite offers a personal retreat, the expansive windows revealing views of the CBD over the river and the Indooroopilly Golf Course.

The adult’s retreat is complemented by the library, complete with a built-in day bed on which to relax and watch the sun set over the Walter Taylor Bridge.
