This character filled family home sits gracefully within a beautiful tree lined street just a short stroll from the hum of popular Griffith shops and top Canberra schools.
The sunny statement family room of this glamourous residence sets the perfect tone for relaxed gatherings of family and friends. Distinguished by a cathedral ceiling and clerestory windows, there are also two sets of stacking doors that unify the outside terrace, family room and meals area into one hospitable oasis complete with aquamarine pool and spa as a backdrop.
Also opening out to the terrace, is the home's large fifth bedroom. Occupying one wing with a shower room nearby, it could be used as a guest room, au pair's quarters, or an obvious office or rumpus. While relaxed entertaining is likely to take place in the rear living areas, there are options for more formal entertaining in the 12-seat dining room and elegant loungeroom off the main entry overlooking picturesque gardens.
The master is quietly tucked away opposite and has a well-designed walk-through wardrobe and spacious ensuite. A family bathroom services three additional bedrooms and there's the added bonus of a full contemporary bathroom accessed via the garage, providing perfect amenity and location for those using the swimming pool.
Positioned just a street back from St Edmund's College playing fields and an easy walk to St Clare's College and both the Griffith and Manuka village boutiques and restaurants, the time saving produced by living in this location is a luxury in its own right.
