A Family Home Designed for Lifestyle and Space

69 Kuran St, Chermside is a stunning five-bedroom property, nicknamed Gwendolyn. This home was made with large families in mind, with multiple living zones, a six-car garage, five bathrooms, and a city-facing outlook across to Mount Coot-tha. It surely was a home built for both comfort and prestige.

Turning over a new leaf, this stunning property was originally built by a young family who later decided to relocate to Burpengary. From there, this breathtaking home was quickly snapped by a lucky buyer, at an amazing suburb record price.

Styling That Showcased Its Full Potential

While the architecture alone was impressive, presentation was the key to unlocking buyer imagination- and that is what exactly our sister brand, EVOCH Property Styling did. Empty spaces can feel cold and overwhelming, but with the right property styling, every room was transformed into a warm, liveable environment.

The team’s approach focused on:

• Highlighting the open-plan flow to emphasise family living. 
• Using soft, contemporary palettes to complement the home’s modern finishes. 
• Defining each zone, from bedrooms to living spaces, so buyers could visualise themselves using every part of the home. 

This attention to detail meant that the property wasn’t just seen, it was felt. Buyers could imagine their families relaxing, entertaining, and thriving in the space.

Buyer Demand Surged in Just 7 Days

When agent Drew Davies of Place Ascot launched the listing in September, demand was immediate. Over 100 buyers inspected the home within just one week, creating a wave of competition that pushed offers sky-high.

Rather than going to auction, the vendors accepted an unconditional offer of $3.32 million, shattering Chermside’s previous record by $650,000. In a suburb with a median house price of just over $1.1 million, this result was nothing short of extraordinary.

Why Styling Matters in Brisbane’s Property Market

The Brisbane market is evolving. Buyers are now looking further afield, seeking space, value, and lifestyle. 

Professional property styling in Brisbane bridges the gap between architectural design and buyer psychology. By creating an emotional connection, staging encourages buyers to act quickly and decisively, often resulting in stronger offers, faster turnarounds, and, as in this case, record-breaking sales.

A Record Result That Highlights the Power of Presentation

For the buyers, a family with three children who had been searching for 18 months,  this was the first home that “ticked all the boxes.” That spark of recognition is exactly what professional staging aims to create: a space where buyers can instantly picture their lives unfolding.

For the sellers, it meant more than just a quick sale: it delivered a premium result that outperformed the suburb’s history by hundreds of thousands of dollars.

This Chermside success story is proof that while every property has potential, it’s the way a home is presented that determines how far above expectations it can truly go.
