If position, style, luxury, special features, air conditioning and private swimming pool matter for your stay in Brisbane, then this is without doubt one of the best homes available. This deceptively large home sleeps 15, or rent just one self contained level for a smaller group (conditions apply). The upper level has 4 spacious bedrooms and multiple common areas with a wrap around verandah - Queensland style. Or perhaps the lower level suits you better with sparkling pool and contempory furnishings. Need more space than just one level? Then the middle level can be taken with the upper or lower floors and you can still enjoy total privacy from each other. If it's a holiday home you are seeking, then go one better - choose to holiday in your home.
LAMBERT HOUSE has all the features of a classic Queenslander without compromising the comforts of today's living. The upper level was one of Kangaroo Point's classic homes. Relocated on the block, the home still retains all the features Queensland homes are famous for and are envied by the cooler states that don't suit this beautiful architectural style. High ceilings, tongue and groove walls, polished timber floorboards, multiple french doors opening to wide wrap around verandahs, ornate fanlights above doorways - and the intangible 'vibe'. When the home was moved to make way for units, the previous owner took the opportunity to build in under with a sleek, contempory open plan oasis. From the auto operated fountain in the foyer, to the generous tiled entertainment space opening through bifold glass doors to the pool area and Japanese inspired garden this space invites good times. Complete with remote controlled waterfall feature, tree lighting and the vergola all weather overhead blinds, you won't need, nor want to leave. Ducted air con throughout.
Extravagant in style and space. Centrally located. Stepping into the spacious house is akin to going to a designer showroom – immaculately coordinated and tasteful selection in colours of the furniture to chinaware in the kitchen cabinets. We have enjoyed our stay and wished to spend more time if not for having to rush to catch an early flight. Thank you Jen for having us to stay at your lovely house to end off our holiday with splendour.
