8 Eagar Place

#soldbycris #soldbymcreynolds The home opens to differing alfresco stages on both sides catering for all occasions and moods. Wonderfully private and immersed within easy-care, curated gardens, this family friendly entertainer is as elegant as it is generous. Social spaces unfold from one to another, merging to elevated veranda and spilling to a large outdoor room so you can connect with nature all year round. This stunning four-bedroom home is ideally placed at the apex of a quiet cul-de-sac. Eagar Place is surrounded by parks, flanked by Reserve and Ginninderra Creek, gifting a city meets country feel. It is not far to a mix of great schools and a short stroll to the fab local shops, famed for Herbert’s Bar for local wine and craft beer. Within new hybrid timber floors float underfoot introducing a note of light oak, coalescing with the soothing neutral palette and the darker timber joinery and doors. The large foyer/mudroom softly illuminated by a duo of glass entry doors and fit for kicking off boots, hanging coats and woollies. From here you can look out to the street, and the layering of plantings that populate the deep front garden. The broad front living space frames the landscape, as banks of colonial style windows capture so many pretty colours and textures. A long veranda beckons to lazy afternoons street watching, or early evening g & t’s after a long day. The room itself, softly carpeted and inviting, merging to a formal dining room that aligns and connects with the kitchen. Currently utilised as a play room, the dining space also lends itself to be enjoyed as a home office, library or additional living area. The hub of the home is undoubtedly the generous kitchen combined meals, all flowing to the warming expanse of the outdoor sunroom. Banks of white cabinetry, Shaker style meet gleaming black stone worktops. There really is a spot for everything – walls of cabinetry and a large island floating central, gifting plenty of space for the family to gather, helping with the cooking, sharing stories from the day. There is enough space outdoors for both alfresco dining and lounging, the room screened on all sides, welcoming cross breezes and keeping the insects at bay. This cathedral like space has a high pitched roofline and home comforts – ceiling fan, wall hung TV bracket. Think watching the game, barbecue sizzling, the table set for plenty and an easy to-and-thro from inside to out. Just outside the screened doors you can see the kids at play upon the soft lawns, edged by so many native plantings. A large colonial style window captures leafy trees within the private master bedroom, with wall of timber robes and ensuite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms introduce the softest notes of mint green and offer excellent storage. The fourth bedroom is sequestered at the end of the home, sits adjacent to the family bathroom and opens via glass sliders onto the sunroom. This large room with its wall of robes, could easily accommodate a sitting area combined office setup, making it perfect for an older child or think guest or even inter-generational living. Evatt is a tranquil suburb, famous for its lovely country vibes, ample green spaces, walking tracks, ovals and surrounding reserve. The home is close to the local Evatt and Spence shops, a variety of schools and the Belconnen precinct, with its wide-ranging offering of entertainment, shopping and dining options, including the newly refurbed Capital Food Markets. features. .gorgeous four-bedroom home is peaceful Evatt .fabulous entertainer with enormous outdoor room .ideally place at the apex of a quiet cul-de-sac .long front veranda overlooking beautifully planted gardens .large colonial style windows .generous front living area with pretty garden views .flow to adjacent formal dining or additional living/office area .large contemporary kitchen combined family room .drift to outdoor sun room, fully screened with raked ceiling .new hybrid timber flooring .monochromatic kitchen with white cabinetry and sleek black stone worktops, Westinghouse electric oven, gas hob and rangehood .master bedroom with wall of timber built-in-robes and ensuite bathroom .two additional bedrooms with built-in-robes .fourth bedroom combined living with built-in-robe and spill to sunroom .family bathroom with bathtub and separate toilet .internal laundry with direct access to outside .six RC split systems .honeycomb blinds to some of the home .24 solar panels (current owner almost cost neutral on electricity bills) .private landscaped rear garden with retaining walls, soft lawns, native plantings and raised vegetable beds .seperate double garage .surrounded by green spaces, reserves and playgrounds, close to Evatt, Miles Franklin and St Monica’s Primary Schools .handy to the local Evatt shops and not far from the bustling Belconnen Precinct .15 mins to the CBD by car EER: 3 Living area: 181m2 approx Land size: 828m2 Land value: $594,000 Land rates: $3302 (approx) Year built: 1979
