Some homes are built to impress, while others are thoughtfully designed to be lived in and enjoyed. At 20 Grande Parade, Douglas, you have the rare privilege of experiencing both. Designed by renowned local architect Roger Maccallum in collaboration with its original owners, and brought to life by well respected respected local builder Bernard Lancini, this exceptional residence is the result of a carefully considered vision. A vision that delivered not only an architecturally striking home, but one of outstanding comfort, practicality and functionality, with the finished residence earning a prestigious award following its completion.

Occupying an extraordinary 740sqm absolute riverfront allotment at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac, the home enjoys a position that is almost impossible to replicate. With just one adjoining neighbour and beautiful parkland and nature reserve wrapping around the rear and entire side boundary, the sense of privacy and connection to nature is remarkable. Towering gums, established native trees and tranquil river views form a constantly changing backdrop, visible from numerous rooms throughout the home. It is an environment that feels wonderfully removed from the everyday, yet sits right in the heart of highly sought after Douglas.

Spanning approximately 362sqm under roof, the residence has been intelligently designed around family living, with generous separate living spaces, an elegant chef inspired kitchen and seamless connections to two covered outdoor entertaining areas overlooking the sparkling concrete swimming pool and natural surrounds. Upstairs, four beautifully proportioned bedrooms provide a private family retreat, including a luxurious master suite with its own balcony overlooking the parklands and river. Throughout both levels, 2.7m ceilings, zoned ducted air-conditioning and an exceptional level of attention to detail ensure the home is as comfortable and functional as it is beautiful.

Lovingly maintained by its original owners and presenting in immaculate, almost as-new condition, this outstanding home is now being offered to the market for the very first time. With the current owners entering their next chapter and looking to downsize, the opportunity has arrived for another family to enjoy everything they have so thoughtfully created. For buyers who appreciate architectural quality, exceptional functionality and a truly irreplaceable riverfront position, 20 Grande Parade is a home that simply must be experienced.
