#soldbycris #soldbymcreynolds Suburb Record – $1,550,000 This spectacular family home blends subdued Mediterranean elegance with robust entertainer, upping the ante with a few surprise elements also thrown into the mix. The outside is brought in with multiple socialising spaces flowing effortlessly into a variety of alfresco areas. Occupying on two levels, including a fully contained downstairs apartment, the home packs a mighty punch as a fully versatile family home. Take the views for example…think grand sunsets, serene waters, mountain ranges and a private viewing arena to enjoy the best of the of city’s light shows, celebrations and fireworks displays. The home’s smooth rendered form is juxtaposed by its mix of angled roof lines, and a wrap around veranda, shades the central entryway. A sequence of square architectural cut-aways frame elevated views of the street and the beautifully curated Japanese courtyard, with its feature weeping cherry. A combination of driveways provides off-street parking for up to twelve cars, perfect for hosting large celebrations. We love the convenience of the circular driveway and the bright red mailbox that hints at the vibrant accents within. Another driveway leads to a double garage. The signature vivid red door heralds entry to a large sunlit foyer. The sunken front living room is a perfect place to escape and enjoy the central gas fireplace while gazing at the serene garden views. An elevated dining stage provides the perfect backdrop for big family gathering or sophisticated dinner soirees. A sunny balcony links the dining space to the outdoors, a perfect spot to enjoy cocktail hour while watching the sunset. This is also a perfect nook for morning coffee, with eastern drift from the kitchen and the capture of first morning rays. The warmth of the timber breakfast bar provides a perfect counter to the cool natural white stone countertops. Banks of soft close cabinets and drawers provide ample storage and meet a glass splashback in vibrant ruby red. Alongside the kitchen is the more relaxed family room, opening to an expansive sheltered veranda. One imagines the family spending most of their time out here, enjoying the ever-changing light shows over the mountains, views across Lake Ginninderra, and the twinkling city lights. The master parents retreat is a haven unto itself with sitting area, double built-in-robes, ensuite and expansive water views. Two additional bedrooms and a family bathroom with bathtub, complete the upstairs wing. You can stock the well-equipped second kitchen for parties and BBQ’s, with its easy flow to outdoor entertainment spaces and garden. The downstairs apartment provides a fully functioning, independent second dwelling, with full-size kitchen, living area, two bedrooms, bathroom and a large laundry. There is a choice of outdoor rooms – the serene sunroom and the more robust sheltered alfresco dining space, with fitted barbecue and plumbed gas. The possibilities for this space are endless: think Airbnb, teen retreat, multi-generational living, or just a perfect layering of relaxed spaces, so family can come together, enjoying precious time with friends.
