Last Listing description (May 2018)
From a convertible glass roof in the living area to a 7 person spa beneath the rear pergola, this home has it all.
Expect to be impressed by this amazing, impeccable, 4 bedroom family home with secure garaging for 3 cars and a lock-up carport for a trailer, jet ski or mid-life-crisis Harley. You won't be disappointed.
Perfect for Canberra's vastly different seasons and wide-ranging climatic conditions, the main living area features a partly glass roof with internal horizontal blinds that can be opened in winter to allow as much sunlight in as possible, or closed in summer to keep the sun out. This feature is simply amazing and must be seen to be fully appreciated. There is also a lovely, glass-fronted, slow combustion fireplace to add romantic charm in the cooler months. The large living area also has a beautiful timber floor.
A stunning feature in the separate, tiled family room is the addition of two large roof windows with blinds. These are better than mere skylights as they can allow sunlight into the room, or keep it out, but can also be opened to allow warm air to escape, thereby venting the home. The family room flows out to a large, covered rear entertaining deck.
The fully renovated, as new kitchen looks over the family room to keep the family's chef fully engaged with household activities. Cleverly designed, the kitchen has 28 cupboards providing a place for all the odds and sods. Features include: Electrolux stove with ceramic cooktop and electric oven; new Bosch dishwasher; raised privacy partition to the family room and LED lights. There is also a convenient breakfast bar.
This much-loved family home has been cleverly extended and renovated, adding a HUGE new master bedroom with a good sized ensuite and a walk-in wardrobe. It also has French doors leading onto the entertaining deck. Bedroom 2 (the original master bedroom) now has two walk-in wardrobes and a built-in television space beyond the foot of the bed. Bedrooms 3 and 4 both have built-in wardrobes.
The main bathroom and toilet were fully renovated just a year ago and present as new. Even the laundry is new and offers plenty of cupboards both above and below the stylish benchtop.
A sliding glass door leads from the family room onto a large, pergola covered, timber entertaining deck. The pergola has a laserlite roof for year-round enjoyment and there is even a ceiling fan. On the deck is a large, gas, stainless-steel barbecue to feed the family and guests.
The climate within this gorgeous home can be completely controlled throughout the year with the combination of: ducted gas heating throughout, ducted evaporative cooling and a lovely Norseman slow combustion fireplace in the main living area. To keep the running costs to a minimum, there is a solar hot water system as well as 8 solar/electric panels on the roof. Ingenious!
If you like to pamper yourself, you'll love the 7-person spa beneath a second pergola in the back garden. This pergola also has a fireplace to make outdoor entertaining a year-round option.
Home mechanics, or anyone with a hobby of any sort, will love the enormous garage space. It is basically a double garage grafted onto the front of a single garage with its own store room. The net result is secure parking for up to 3 cars and additional storage/workshop space. There is also a separate, secure car port with double front doors that could be used as a storage shed for garden tools or parking for a motor bike, a trailer or whatever takes your fancy. There is even a large shade-sail at the front of the home providing undercover parking for at least 2 more vehicles.
This lovely home presents in pristine condition with nothing to do but move in and start enjoying life. It is conveniently located on a bus route and is close to schools, universities and Belconnen Mall. It will certainly appeal to both live-in owners and investors.
