35 Protea Drive

Presenting what may be Bongaree's most compelling waterfront opportunity on the market. Welcome to 35 Protea Drive, where the playbook is enviably focused on lifestyle, leisure and sophisticated liveability. Positioned along a peaceful (lock gated) canal front, with direct access to Pumicestone Passage and Moreton Bay from your own pontoon, this is a property reserved for those who value an architecturally designed home that respects its setting, a connection to the water, and a look and feel that is both private and quietly expansive. This single level residence offers a floor plan that has been carefully considered to balance openness with separation, allowing for both effortless entertaining and quiet retreat. Generous living zones unfold toward the waterfront, establishing a seamless connection between indoors and out. Set on a level 800m2 north-easterly facing lot with 487m2 under roof, the scale of the residence is generous yet not overwhelming. Here you will find indoor and outdoor living effortlessly interwoven, where glass-lined spaces draw in the outlook, while the alfresco and poolside setting provide a natural extension of the home. The main living space reveals itself gradually as you enter through the striking foyer featuring 4 meter (12ft) vaulted ceilings. Once inside, you are met with an eye catching multi-zoned living space - a first lounging zone leading through to the dining area and onto the casual living zone that takes in water views. The centrally positioned designer kitchen is surrounded by 80mm edged engineered granite benchtops that are heat, stain, scratch and impact resistant. A breakfast/wine down bar, quality appliances such as 5 burner Bosch stove, Smeg built-in Convection Microwave Oven, Omega Wall Oven and Viali Range Hood complete this stunning space. At the heart of the home lays an incredibly private central courtyard pool enclosure featuring a gentle waterfall a place that beckons a moment of pause anchored by a magnificent fully enclosed entertaining zone. This is the ideal stage for alfresco dining and gatherings, capturing cooling breezes and water views in complete privacy. Open the shutters and take in views as the day melts into night. The connection to the water is completed by a 10m pontoon ready to home your vessel, with power, water and lighting connected. Accommodation is well resolved, with four bedrooms offering flexibility for a range of living arrangements. The master suite is a retreat, privately positioned to take full advantage of the water views. A resort style ensuite bathroom featuring a large walk-through shower and a fully closeted walk-in-robe all come together to create a sanctuary of calm.
