The couple who built Brisbane’s hottest restaurant kitchens have spent two decades quietly perfecting their own home – and now it can be yours.

Brooke and Spencer Lambert, whose business Lamberts Design and Construction has delivered fit-outs for restaurants Hellenika, SK Steak & Oyster, Biànca and sAme sAme, are selling their Yeronga property after living there for 20 years.

The builders behind some of Brisbane’s are selling their luxury riverfront home.

The custom-built stainless-steel bath.

Their expertise in commercial kitchens helped create an unexpected feature in their home — a custom-built stainless-steel bath.

“We couldn’t buy the bath we wanted, so we built it,” Mrs Lambert said.

“That’s the advantage of what we do.

“We can take an idea and work out how to construct it, rather than being limited to what’s available.

The result in their home is an oversized bath, constructed from stainless steel and tiled over to achieve something they couldn’t find off the shelf.

Alongside hospitality fit-outs, their business manufactures stainless steel kitchens, benches and exhaust canopies.

Over two decades, the couple have updated the five-bedroom home while retaining its original layout, fitting renovations around their commercial projects.

“The home already worked really well, so we didn’t need to change the layout,” Mrs Lambert said.

“We’ve updated the kitchens and bathrooms over time, whenever I could borrow our trades between jobs.”

Their improvements include a second kitchen downstairs, added as their three children grew into adulthood.

Now aged 33, 29 and 27, the children have moved in and out over the years, with the lower-level giving them independence when they returned.

“The children could have their bedrooms and kitchen downstairs, with space to do their own thing, while we were upstairs,” Mrs Lambert said.

“It’s also worked beautifully when my parents visit from Victoria.

“Everyone can be together without being on top of each other.

“And in summer, when we’re out on the deck or by the pool, the kitchen is right there.

“You don’t have to keep going upstairs.”

Set on a 690sq m direct riverfront block, the home overlooks the Brisbane River and Indooroopilly Golf Course, with a suspended gallery walkway leading to a private loft-style master suite.

The home overlooks the Brisbane River and Indooroopilly Golf Course.

An infra-red sauna, saltwater swimming pool and spa sit close together, making the outdoor areas a well-used part of family life.

Beyond the gardens, a deepwater pontoon and Jet Ski landing provide direct river access.

Place Ascot agent Josh Shanley, who is marketing the property with Jakob Morrison, said the home combined bespoke features with a practical family layout.

“The suspended walkway and loft-style master suite give the home architectural interest, while the second kitchen downstairs makes it adaptable for adult children or visiting family,” Mr Shanley said.

“With the pontoon, pool and outdoor entertaining areas, buyers can also see how much of everyday life here revolves around the river.”

Realestate.com.au data reveals the median house price in Yeronga is $1.79m.
