21 Chermside Street, Deakin

A quiet sense of arrival sets the tone for this spectacular contemporary family residence, with northerly orientation where design is both subtly artful and inviting. From the first step inside, warm Blackbutt timber floors extend beneath you - silken in tone, softly grained, and providing an organic and serene grounding that flows throughout the home. Just off the entry, the king-sized parents' suite serves as a private retreat. A limestone feature wall frames a secluded terrace, while a concealed slider reveals an ensuite of refined indulgence. Victoria + Albert fixtures, mirrored storage, and underfloor heating elevate daily ritual, while a sculptural freestanding bath enjoys a captivating outlook across the solar-heated lap pool. Direct pool access completes the sense of resort-style ease. At the home's centre, an elegant sunny living room impresses with a soaring void ceiling, enhancing volume and natural light. Floating, stone-topped custom joinery highlights the space, while a commercial-grade slider draws in soft northerly light and opens seamlessly to the pool deck. A concealed door allows this entire front wing to be closed off, creating an intimate sanctuary distinct from the casual family zones beyond. The family hub unfolds toward the rear in a sequence of connected, generous spaces. A bespoke kitchen - wider than standard for effortless circulation - features an elevated expansive seven-seat island designed for conversation and gathering. Premier appliances, a custom pantry, undermounted lighting, and a café-style coffee station blend functionality with flair. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a dining area comfortably accommodating a ten-seat table for long, lingering meals. Beyond, a relaxed and peaceful family living area opens poolside to a covered alfresco terrace with integrated Sonos sound, blurring the line between indoors and out. The backyard is a social destination in itself, complemented by a commercial-sized built-in pizza oven that fills the air with irresistible aromas and draws friends together. A custom floating staircase with glass balustrade rises from the front sitting room to the upper level, where a gallery-style walkway overlooks the space below. Three queen-sized bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged here, including a guest suite with direct access to a two-way luxe bathroom which leads to a rumpus area. A fifth bedroom option is provided on the ground-level by a study. Situated a short stroll from Canberra Girls Grammar, the Deakin shops and medical centre, and with easy access to other prestigious schools, Parliament House, Barton offices, and the Canberra CBD, this home offers a peaceful sanctuary within a highly connected location.
