In 2016, the homeowners embarked on a journey that transformed a house into a cherished family home. Nestled in a quiet, family-friendly street in Karabar, this two-story haven became a canvas for a multitude of memories and shared moments.
Choosing this residence for its proximity to family, as well as renowned schools and local shops, including Karabar Shopping Mall and Queanbeyan’s Riverside Plaza, the homeowners found themselves in a welcoming neighbourhood.
Upon entering this two-story dwelling, you’re warmly welcomed by an inviting light-filled living space. Easy-care, scratch resistant flooring, offering a luxurious, low-maintenance lifestyle, leads the way into the heart of the home – the open plan kitchen and dining space. Witnessing countless creative meals, family gatherings, and contagious laughter, the recently renovated kitchen features brand new, high-end electric appliances and plenty of bench space for culinary pursuits. With a love for cooking, the homeowners have shared many moments teaching their young boys the art of baking.
Meticulously redesigning the home over the years, the homeowners maximized the space, opting for timeless neutral tones in both paint and tiles. An honorary mention, for not only the homeowners’ favourite spaces but also the most complimented by guests, the recently renovated bathrooms offer another layer of luxury to the home – with large, cool-toned, floor-to-ceiling tiles and oversized amenities including the shower and free standing bathtub, these spaces offer the ultimate place to relax and rejuvenate.
Extending off the dining space, large glass sliding doors open out onto an undercover alfresco, overlooking a spacious, secure backyard. Offering endless entertainment opportunities, the backyard underwent a total transformation to accentuate enjoyable, low-maintenance living – bricked pavers allow easy access to a fruitful vegetable garden and garden shed, whilst the vast expanse of grass provides plenty of space for children and pets alike to roam and play for hours on end.
Outside the home, Queanbeyan, a growing, community centric suburb, became the backdrop to the family’s day-to-day life. Its centrality to Canberra City and surrounding suburbs provided a plethora of retail options and family activities and local events, from the Queanbeyan Rodeo to Classic Car Shows, Multicultural Festivals, and circus performances at the Queanbeyan Showground, added vibrancy to their community experience.
The homeowners have decided it’s time to bid farewell to this special abode, however their shared memories of bringing home their youngest son, completing their little family, and hosting their first family Christmas with their extended family – watching their children eagerly open the sliding door on Christmas morning to check what Santa had brought – would forever hold a place in their hearts.
As they leave behind a home that witnessed the growth of their family, the homeowners move forward, cherishing the countless moments that shaped their lives within these walls, and hope the next family to fill these walls can continue to write their next chapter with as much love and laughter as they have.
