Located in the Brisbane suburb of Bardon, this stylish family home was designed by interior designer Polina Radchenko. The new build features several large bedrooms, a rumpus, separate study, living, dining, kitchen and pool and an interior that is defined by a classic colour palette where light tones contrast with dark, moody timbers. Brushed brass accents work to really elevate the spaces.

“The striking kitchen space features dark joinery, quality appliances and brass fittings. Lowline windows replace a splashback, providing interest and natural light,” says Polina Radchenko. A stone island bench adds a luxe feel to the space and alongside the kitchen, a concealed butler’s pantry keeps all the kitchen essentials out of view.

“The spacious open living wraps around the kitchen with floor to ceiling curtains and brass light fittings. A bar niche provides a clever servery for the wine connoisseur or simple entertaining, while huge glass doors allow the living to spill out onto a timber deck, overlooking the swimming pool,” says Polina.

A chic internal staircase allows for a full view to the upstairs level which houses three large bedrooms (each with built-ins) plus a study, additional lounge and balcony. The main bathroom boasts a freestanding bath, modern rain shower with floor to ceiling glass and a set of round porcelain hand basins. “The bathroom is completed with stunning brass fittings,” says Polina.

A fabulous adult’s retreat, the master suite boasts lots of luxe features too – a barn-style sliding door conceals a large walk-in robe filled with an abundance of hanging space alongside custom blonde timber joinery and concealed lighting. “The ensuite is as luxurious as the main bathroom, and has a freestanding bath, brass rain shower and matching porcelain twin hand basins,” says Polina.

As for the outside of the home, it’s painted in a soothing shade of blue and features traditional timber fretwork combined with batten gables and timber palings – it’s quite a contrast to the interior of the home. “I’m proud to say that the property was sold at the end of 2021 for a street record price.”
