Last Listing description (August 2019)

This elevated and privately built four-bedroom home in Mackellar Crescent is just seconds from the sweeping plains and views of mountain ranges that the street's namesake, Dorothea Mackellar, epitomised in her poem 'My country'.
The locals hold tight to what they know and love. Only a handful of homes in this quiet loop street have been on the market in recent years and it's easy to understand why. The location offers a lifestyle balance few can match.
The Bicentennial National Trail, Mount Painter and Aranda Bushland Nature Reserves are virtually on the doorstep. It's also just a short walk to the bustling Cook shops and popular foodies' caf s Little Oink and To All My Friends, and a short commute to universities, hospitals, Westfield Belconnen, city and popular schools including Radford College.

Centred in the middle of a large, north-facing corner block on the high side of the street, the home mirrors the location's lifestyle balance. A living room flooded with natural light and a cosy slow combustion fire flows to an updated kitchen and dining area opening onto a covered deck with views to Mt Painter that provide a perfect backdrop for entertaining.
Four generous size bedrooms are on this level, including a bedroom with a wall-mounted bed for ultimate flexibility. The versatility continues downstairs with a home office or studio and a converted double garage that could be used as an enormous teenagers' retreat or rumpus room.
The spacious residence is move in ready and ideal for families who are requiring that little extra space. The home offers the added convenience and warmth of a new ducted gas heating system and renovated main bathroom displayed in neutral tones.
