Set against a backdrop of sweeping mountain views, this beautifully reimagined four-bedroom home offers an inspiring blend of warmth, character, and contemporary living. Every window captures a stunning natural outlook, bringing the outdoors in and creating a home that feels both grounded and elevated.
As you enter, you're immediately drawn to the striking industrial-size fireplace, the true centrepiece of the main living area. At the heart of the home sits the open-plan kitchen, beautifully updated with a new splashback, stainless steel appliances and generous bench space. A charming window seat makes the perfect spot for morning coffee while gazing across the landscaped grounds and mountain backdrop.
The master bedroom impresses with soaring ceilings, serene views, and a private ensuite featuring timber-look ceramic tiles, a bathtub, shower, and modern fixtures; a peaceful retreat to start and end each day. A standout feature of the property is the hand-built stone wall in two bedrooms, lovingly crafted and a timeless reminder of the home's country heritage. All bedrooms offer built-in storage and continue the home's theme of natural light and picturesque views. The main bathroom features a separate shower and bathtub, plus an additional toilet for convenience.
Perfect for guests, extended family, or independent teens, the beautifully updated self-contained retreat includes a bedroom, study, kitchenette and cozy fireplace, all complemented by breathtaking outdoor mountain views and a rustic external toilet that truly captures the essence of country living.
Outside, you'll find thoughtfully landscaped gardens, grazing pasture for horses, cattle or sheep and the kind of peaceful outlook that makes you forget you're only a short drive from the city.
Michelago has a vibrant community with a general store, a sports oval, a primary school as well as regular social events. Being only a 20-minute drive to Calwell and south Canberra but also an easy drive to the snowfields makes this home, country living at its best!
