Tucked away off the street and just steps from Parliament House and Canberra Girls Grammar, the threshold of this gracious home makes way for a residence of astonishing expanse, inspired layout and immense practicality.
Blending stunning period detail with contemporary charisma to create a convenient Deakin living experience, this family home combines the best of its original character with modern fittings and fixtures that are truly sublime.
Curated to subtly make the magical outdoors an integral part of the living spaces, the main living hub centres around a fabulous entertainer's kitchen and family room that have uninterrupted views over the pool deck.
A covered, north-facing alfresco space alongside the pool can seat 12 and has a unique cathedral-style ceiling. With its full outdoor kitchen including a gas-integrated barbecue and radiant heating, it is truly equipped for three-season entertaining.
The alfresco space adjoins a dynamic two-storey studio that has its own entrance, timber floors, a sweet and versatile loft bedroom, high-end bathroom and lovely light-filled living space overlooking beautiful gardens.
With four bedrooms in the main home, including one with an ensuite, plus the palatial master with its own ensuite that boasts a bath and a walk-in shower, this home has been crafted to provide everyone with individual pockets of privacy alongside multiple stylish areas to work, relax or entertain in.
Whether you're curled up in front of the cosy gas fire in the formal front lounge, getting a solid day's work done in the dedicated office, or hosting a family feast in the glorious dining room, home life never looked or felt so good.
