12 Tuthill Place, Calwell 2905

“I bought this house without him seeing it.” That’s how the story starts. After touring countless homes during the uncertainty of 2020, she knew exactly what she was waiting for. Her husband was overseas for work, so she went to the auction alone. FaceTiming him mid-bid, a friend quietly pulled her aside and whispered, “Stop bidding… you’re bidding against yourself.” It was Valentine’s Day. She bought the house anyway. Because the moment she walked through the front door, the mesmerising view across the Calwell Valley spoke for itself. ________________________________________ Mornings on the Deck. Winters with Snow on the Brindabellas. Every morning – even in winter – they sit on the deck. Coffee in hand. Sun warming the north-facing space. Sometimes snow dusting the hills in the distance. “We’re probably the only ones out there as much as we are,” she laughs. “Breakfast, lunch… even in winter.” The elevated position captures uninterrupted views across Calwell Valley toward Telstra Tower, and the large entertaining deck has genuinely functioned as a second living room. Margaritas have been made. Neighbours wander over. Sundays often include baked goods from next door. “The view, the garden, the deck – that’s what sold it to me.” ________________________________________ Living That Works for Real Families Upstairs, redwood timber floors bring warmth and elegance to the living spaces, flowing into a stunning kitchen defined by a bold blue splashback and quality AEG appliances. An island bench with integrated sink keeps connection at the centre of daily life. Four bedrooms offer flexibility, including a king-sized main suite with walk-in robe and ensuite with valley views. Downstairs, a separate-access rumpus, generous under-house storage and internal garage entry create space for teens, hobbies or future potential. The double garage includes rear roller and side driveway access, and NBN fibre to the node supports modern living. Since purchasing, the owners have invested in comfort and efficiency with double-glazed upper windows and doors, zoned Mitsubishi Electric reverse-cycle heating and cooling, retained gas ducted infrastructure and an upgraded three-phase switchboard. The upper level has been refreshed with repainting and newly polished flooring, while the bathroom, toilet and laundry have been cohesively renovated. ________________________________________ The Garden That Feels Like a Fairy Tale Winding paths. Tiered levels. Hidden pockets. “It’s magical to me,” she says. “There are little paths everywhere.” The backyard is layered and alive – roses, bottlebrush, dahlias, gladioli, native plantings, fruit trees (lemon, lime, apple, nectarine, plum), and a productive veggie patch growing tomatoes, zucchinis, cucumbers and eggplant. Colorbond fencing wraps the perimeter in Monument, providing privacy without sacrificing openness. There’s a sprinkler system servicing the front garden and veggie beds. ________________________________________ Beyond the property itself, it’s the community that has mattered. “All the neighbours are really good,” she says. “We all look out for each other.” Located within walking distance to Calwell Primary School, St Francis of Assisi Primary School and Calwell Shopping Centre, and a short drive to Tuggeranong Town Centre and Lake Tuggeranong, the position combines elevation with convenience.
