Entertaining is made easy in this elevated, tasteful home where a covered alfresco space overlooks a glorious magnesium swimming pool – complete with lights and aqua jets – while the Brindabellas beyond provide a stunning backdrop.
The new owners will enjoy beautifully appointed interiors with casual living areas soaked in beautiful northerly light that warms the Crema Marfil marble floors. An elegant central kitchen offers professionally lit display cabinetry perfect for showcasing significant pieces.
The formal entertaining areas are segregated from other rooms by elegant French doors, the lounge has a double aspect to the Brindabellas, and the neighbouring dining room benefits from a Tasmanian blackwood dry bar and hutch.
All five bedrooms ( one currently used as a study with built in joinery) are grouped in a quiet wing off the living areas with the secondary bedrooms serviced by a family bathroom with underfloor heating, floor to ceiling porcelain tiling, and Villeroy & Boch bathtub with waterfall faucet. The parents' suite has delightful garden views, two wardrobes – one built-in and one walk-through with excellent shoe storage– and an ensuite with floating vanity and underfloor heating.
Secreted away off the garage with internal access is a storage room that can cellar more than 500 bottles of wine, and an adjoining room is a versatile space currently in use as a TV room, but equally capable of becoming a home gym or workshop.
Boasting two driveways, which allow all guests to park off street, plus several spots to park a boat, van or trailer.
Poised on the high side of a quiet loop street this home's location is within a short walk of Cooleman Court and short drive to Woden Town Centre and the Canberra Hospital. Multiple well-regarded schools are within a 15-minute radius including Marist College and Canberra grammar schools.
