Light is energy, and in this exquisite as-new architect-designed home in Deakin, it's a profoundly positive force that imbues the internal spaces with a luminescence that amplifies daily living. Carved out from the street over a gently ascending block, this builders' own home takes you on a journey. It starts at the flawless front door – a timber-battened beauty with seamless continuity that sits flush with the home's architecture.
Off the formal entry is a sitting room where a cathedral ceiling, huge picture window and an additional sliding door leads to a small sunny courtyard that rings with the gentle sounds of an elegant water feature. A few short steps demarcate the second level with a truly exquisite powder room and designer bathroom service three bedrooms, all of which have entrances cleverly laid out off their own landings and not directly opening to the wide hallway.
Another rise takes you to the primary living spaces and the home's true showstopper; a moody kitchen and butler's pantry where dark cabinetry and a Caesarstone Rugged Concrete waterfall island adds depth and richness to an otherwise vividly bright space. Northern light plays across the raked ceiling and pours into the adjacent dining and family areas through a bank of full-height windows and glass doors. Beyond is the masterfully designed outdoor kitchen and alfresco space giving you the gift of four-seasons entertaining as strategic skylights and travertine pavers capture winter warmth.
Perfectly cocooned at the rear of the home, the grand master has a custom walk-in wardrobe and an astonishing ensuite with exposed beams, soaking tub, oversized shower and rainfall shower. Embrace all that this exceptional Deakin location has to offer. A two-minute stroll gets you to a supermarket, clothing boutique, gym, medical services and popular eateries. It's also an easy walk to Canberra Girls Grammar junior and senior campuses. The Parliamentary Triangle, Canberra CBD and Canberra Hospital are mere minutes by car.
