Last Listing description (November 2023)

With 180-degree views stretching from Parliament House to Black Mountain and the Arboretum, this magnificent north-facing residence on a massive 2412m2 of prestigious old-Deakin land blends classical grandeur and modern luxury through exemplary architectural and interior design.

This is a rare offering, as properties in this premium tightly held location often remain the same family for generations. The home also comes with history, originally built by Keith Murdoch for News Limited and occupied by the Canberra Times. The current owners undertook a detailed and substantial award winning renovation complementing the home's neatly maintained and mature gardens leading to a picturesque covered terrace entry.

The interiors have been renovated to a high standard and tastefully curated featuring stunning, bespoke materials and finishes that embody an impressive yet welcoming style. Striking polished Ross River parquetry flooring are a highlight as you enter and flow into the study/library and spacious character filled formal lounge and dining space. A renovated cosy wood fireplace sits centre stage with a delightful garden outlook observed through elegant French doors.

The updated kitchen is gorgeous and won the ACT Master Builders Kitchen of the Year in 2021. Sophisticated and stylish, boasting traditional detailing, bespoke cabinetry and a timeless colour palette combined perfectly with warm rosewood timber flooring. In the dining area, you'll find a thoughtfully crafted layout featuring upholstered designer bench seating, ideal for both family gatherings and social entertaining.

The main level of the residence has been thoughtfully configured to connect indoor and outdoor entertaining with glass doors spilling open to a Limestone terrace set beside a newly renovated gleaming pool and refreshed full-sized tennis court. Catering for a growing family or those who enjoy hosting, the flowing floorplan offers 5 delightful bedrooms including a separate suite downstairs with large rumpus or second living space with private access, a stylish bathroom upgraded with premium finishes, making it ideal for extended family or an au pair's quarters.

Synonymous with its exclusive address, prime central positioning and this rare purchase opportunity promises a range of inner-south conveniences just metres from its impressive circular driveway. Parliament House, Deakin medical precinct, the Deakin and Manuka shopping villages and multiple esteemed schools are all within minutes, including Canberra Girls Grammar just a stone's throw away.
