9 Terrigal Crescent

O'Malley ACT 2606

Unparalleled in grandeur, this expansive eight-bedroom, eight-bathroom, three-storey executive residence on a vast 2106m2 parcel of land, presents living on the most majestic of scales. Located in one of Canberra's most exclusive and luxurious diplomatic precincts, only moments from all major amenities, yet set peacefully apart from the noise of major motorways, this property is a testament to the magnificent character of O'Malley. Until recently, this solid red-brick residence, built to the highest of standards and comprised of flowing and substantial living spaces, has been used as a diplomatic embassy. Always maintained with the upmost of care, the formal circular front driveway with a porte cochre bordered by lush sculpted gardens, makes way for the impressive "Sandstock" brick facade of this beautiful home.
Entering through double doors into the large foyer, you are greeted on the right and left by parallel staircases leading alternatively to the lower or upper levels. Ahead, as the centrepiece of the home, awaits a substantial drawing room/ballroom with an open fireplace and ceilings rising two generous storeys featuring acoustic ceiling tiles. The extensive entertaining areas of this residence also include a reception room with an open fireplace, second living room with a bar and bathroom, a large dining room leading to the enormous open-plan ash wood and granite kitchen and casual dining area with ample storage.
Together with the eight bedrooms, four of which have ensuites, this elaborate residence also features a flat on the lower level with its own kitchenette and bathroom. The lower level also includes an oversized nine-car garage and a massive storage area. Three of the bathrooms in the house feature corner spas, with one also featuring an authentic wood sauna.
