This charming light-filled home serves up open plan living that drifts to a sheltered outdoor space. The interiors are informed by airy raked ceilings and a paired back palette that oozes Scandi simplicity. The plan is balanced and considered and includes clever storage solutions that keep things streamlined. We love the gallery white walls and the use of glass that captures shadow and light. And we adore the private gardens that wrap around one side of the home delivering secret garden nooks for play and reflection.This renovated three-bedder sits conveniently across from Macquarie Shops. High garden walls and a magnificent eucalypt shelter enclose the frontage which enjoys a deep verge, host to a myriad of plantings. There is a driveway that curves to meet a single garage and plenty of additional off-street parking, including a cantilevered carport. Entry is via the large front veranda, and the form is as satisfyingly simple as the interiors, textured render with pops of timber panelling. A broad timber door opens onto the light-filled interiors, all architectural angles and perfectly placed skylights, allowing light to fall to the floor.The gentleness of the scheme washes over you, tassie oak floors, light stone worktops, cabinetry in soft nougat, a hint of patterned marble. We love the low bench seat that runs the length of the room, its clever storage beneath and warm timber top. And the central kitchen island, all natural stone waterfalling to the floor. There is a vibe, sweet and refreshing, with a convivial combo of living, dining and cooking.French doors open the space to a curated outdoor room, so you can relax, gather and be. Imagine whiling away sunny afternoons with friends, the kids tumbling on the lawn, play acting within the gorgeous cubby house. All three over-sized bedrooms have a peaceful air and centre around an elegant family bathroom with a separate relaxing bathtub. The master is distinguished by a secret ensuite, tucked seamlessly behind a sliding wardrobe door. Both bathrooms are finished in a concordant paired-back scheme of white on white, alongside earthy dark floors, with slender mosaics to match. There is also a renovated laundry with great storage and direct access to the garden.Life in Macquarie -Walking to the Capital Food Market on Saturday morning for your weekend forage and cup of coffee.
