Overlooking nature reserve and close to the local primary school this property will appeal to lovers of character and inviting living spaces thanks to the warmth of a cedar-raked ceiling and a mezzanine office accessed by a custom spiral timber staircase.
The room's full-width doors also open out to an awning-covered poolside patio surrounded by exquisite lush gardens that wrap around the entire home.
Designed by early Canberra architect Rudi Krastins the two-storey home speaks to the benefits of solar-passive thinking, with all the main living spaces ideally placed to capture northern sun.
An extension, designed by the same architect, has gifted the owners with a triple-aspect bright and sunny family room that opens out to a covered rear patio.
Thoughtful features are the norm here, from the perfectly placed powder room and shower which are easily used from the pool, to the built-in bar in the formal dining room.
More recent renovations to the spacious eat-in kitchen, and to the master ensuite, reflect the same meticulous commitment to quality throughout.
On the lower level there's a separate studio apartment. This could easily become a fully self-contained Airbnb or extended family retreat as plumbing is already set for installation of a kitchenette and a generous bathroom is also attached.
Exceptional storage on this level includes a garage with high ceilings, a well-lit workshop, a cellar or cool room plus dry under-house storage space.
This much-loved home of 44 years is ready for new owners to enjoy the beautiful surrounds, in close proximity to both hospitals , popular schools, shops as well public transport.
