An expansive family residence nestled in one of Deakin's most peaceful and established streets, this five-bedroom, three-bathroom home delivers lifestyle flexibility, refined design, and enduring comfort. Surrounded by mature gardens and perfectly oriented to harness the warmth of the winter sun, it provides a serene retreat for growing families and multigenerational living.
Upon entry, the home's layout immediately showcases its generous proportions and thoughtful flow. The formal lounge and dining area sit to the front, drenched in natural light and ideal for more refined occasions. Moving further through, the open-plan living and meals area creates a relaxed hub for everyday family life, seamlessly connecting to the heart of the home - a well-appointed kitchen complete with a large island bench, high-end Miele appliances, and ample storage throughout.
A canopy of established trees offers shade during the summer months, while the home's north-facing aspect allows sunlight to fill the primary living zones throughout winter. Zoned ducted reverse-cycle heating and cooling, with five separate zones, ensures tailored comfort all year round and enhanced energy efficiency.
Accommodation is well-planned and family-oriented, with five bedrooms thoughtfully spread across a single level. The master suite is privately positioned and features a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite with a separate vanity, and direct access to bedroom five, offering peace of mind for families with younger children. The remaining two bedrooms within the main residence include built-in wardrobes, serviced by a central bathroom.
A key feature of this home is the fully self-contained flat, complete with its own entrance, kitchen, open-plan living and dining space, bedroom, and ensuite. This flexible addition is perfectly suited for extended family, teenage independence, guests, or potential rental income.
Outside, the landscaped garden offers a private and low-maintenance escape, enhanced by a fully automated irrigation system. Whether it is entertaining on the elevated back deck, enjoying a quiet morning coffee on the front veranda as magpies visit, or watching hot air balloons drift overhead, the outdoor spaces have been designed for daily enjoyment.
A wide driveway leads to a spacious four-car garage with internal access, additional trailer parking is placed to the side of the home. A secure under-house storage room that naturally maintains a cool temperature provide practical solutions for busy households.
The current owners have especially cherished the strong sense of community found here. With friendly neighbours, tree-lined streets, and close proximity to Red Hill Reserve, Deakin's healthcare precinct, boutique cafés, and Canberra's most prestigious schools, this is a location that effortlessly supports family life.
