45 Banambila St, Aranda is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 1 parking spaces and was built in 1968. The property has a land size of 807m2 and floor size of 132m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in February 2025.
The timeless appeal of this extraordinary mid-century modern home has been expressly enhanced for 21st century living in an architecturally-designed extension. Elevating the original era's design emphasis on simplicity, functionality and nature, the home now integrates smart living capability.
Set in one of Aranda's most coveted streets, the home's striking faade echoes the powdery white trunks of the streetscape's Red Spotted Gums. Inside, natural materials reign across the single-level layout with exposed brick, contemporary timber details and stone benchtops that combine to bring a textural and visual feast.
An array of thoughtfully-placed windows - floor-to-ceiling, vertical slits, skylights, clerestory - provide a canvas for reverent, artistic views of the sky and surrounding gardens. The focus on nature and energy efficiency also underpins more recent upgrades, among them: a 5000L water tank, a 12.86kW solar array and double-glazing.
Chic palette choices accentuate arresting period features. Exposed rafters run as a common thread. The linear theme continues with the soaring raked ceiling of the astonishing owner's retreat secluded in a new extension and accessed via a breathtaking custom-glass walkway.The linear aesthetic continues in a long, well-appointed galley kitchen with metres of sleek preparation space.
Skilfully renovated, the kitchen flows to an open dining area with integrated bar and wine storage and then out to a covered deck. Beyond, an ornamental grapevine-entwined pergola shelters a dedicated barbecue space with custom stone bar and built-in seating - the ideal place to while away dusky summer evenings with friends.
The versatile floorplan of this property also offers a large multi-purpose room with options for use as a rumpus, music or media room or conversion to a fifth bedroom. A large, separate garden studio has similar flexibility and could be used as a gym, home office or workshop.
Well-located adjacent to walking paths with easy access to North Canberra Hospital and Radford College and within a few minutes' stroll of Aranda and St Vincents primary schools and the dynamic Aranda shops and dining scene, this home provides a premium turnkey offering for discerning buyers who value both design and comfort.
