A semi-contemporary sanctuary backing nature
Quietly positioned in one of Fisher's most desirable loops, this character-filled residence offers a rare blend of charm and immediate connection to nature. Backing directly onto the local urban open space, the home features striking raked ceilings and classic wood-panelled interiors that create a warm, inviting atmosphere. The semi-contemporary aesthetic provides a unique foundation, perfectly suited to its tranquil and leafy setting.At the heart of the home, the main living space is anchored by a premium Morsø wood-burning stove, offering a cozy retreat with a tranquil outlook across to the reserve. For more formal occasions, the dedicated dining room (complete with a practical servery window to the kitchen) and a formal living area with sliding doors to the front verandah provide versatile spaces for every family dynamic.The kitchen is a standout for those who love to create, currently featuring an abundance of storage and bathed in natural light via a central skylight. Historically a hub for local cooking classes, the space is equipped with a Bosch oven and a unique dual-cooktop setup with both gas and electric options. While functional in its current form, the layout offers incredible bones for a redesign to create a more modern, integrated hub tailored specifically for busy family life.Accommodation is thoughtfully arranged, featuring bedrooms with built-in robes and a particularly oversized separate main bedroom that serves as a private sanctuary, complete with an ensuite and spa bath. Practicality is well-suited for daily life with an oversized laundry featuring raked ceilings and internal access to the garage.The floorplan offers excellent flexibility with a rumpus room or fifth bedroom with direct outdoor access. This space is ideal for a teenage retreat, home office, or guest option. Outside, the beautifully maintained gardens and landscaped courtyards offer immense potential for alfresco entertaining, with the gate opening directly onto the walking trails of the reserve.Situated at the heart of Weston Creek, the home is just a 7-minute drive from Cooleman Court Shopping Centre, where you'll find great restaurants and cafés. For more options, a 9-minute drive takes you to the Woden Town Centre, offering shops, banking facilities, a cinema, and the popular restaurant and bar precinct, along with easy access to public transport and the upcoming light rail. Schooling options are abundant, with St. John Vianney Primary School, Arawang Primary School, and Mount Stromlo High School all within a short walk or drive.
