This big, generous and open-hearted family home is filled with light and a wonderful overall feel. The textures of slate floors and timber joinery spark joy and there is a seamless connection to the outdoors. A choice of living areas caters for every family mood and occasion and there is lots of space for entertaining. The garden is a blessing of bright flowering trees, attracting birds and gifting an organic peaceful immersion. You also have the bonus of a sunny garden studio.
Florentine is a curving loop street that edges green space, playgrounds and playing fields, with lots of great walking trails nearby. The home is sheltered and shaded by deep gardens with a shade dappled path that ushers to a long front veranda. To one side a private driveway takes you to a single carport plus parking for an additional three cars.
We love the large welcoming foyer, with its slate floors and concertina doors that open onto the grand living area. The elegant living and large formal dining area is the perfect space for festive events and the largest of gatherings. There is a nice flow via a curving archway into the kitchen and combined meals area.
The kitchen is big and oh so homely with its banks of timber cabinets and open conversational plan. French doors open onto the north facing deck and garden beyond. This clever design also allows food and drink to be passed to small hands, the kids happily at play within the second living area situated at the end of the home. This sequestered space also opens directly onto the deck, creating a lovely inside out vibe, perfect for play and celebration.
The primary bedroom is blessed with northern light and feels generously proportioned. A big, floor up window perfectly frames the lime green of a magnificent pencil pine. A wall of built-in-robes takes care of his and her storage and there is a bright ensuite with a relaxing spa bath.
There are a further three peaceful bedrooms. Bespoke joinery creates ample storage, think a mix of open shelving and built-in-robes. One of the rooms opens directly onto a large courtyard with curving brick walls creating a private and sun-drenched outdoor nook. There is a family bathroom with a bathtub and the convenience of a separate toilet.
A large garden studio sits to one side with glass sliders that open to the garden on two sides. This versatile space if roomy and serves up a rumpus plus a second area/hobby room and a bathroom. Think teen retreat, creative studio or ideal place to work from home. There is also the a large storage area with roller door access that is attached to the studio.
Kaleen is in the Belconnen district and shoulders the inner north suburbs of Lyneham and O'Connor, connecting to Gungaderra Grasslands Nature Reserve. This central, inner locale makes Kaleen a highly popular suburb - close to transport, great schools, the UC, CIT, AIS and Canberra Stadium. With plenty of parks, bike and walking trails, the home is also within walking distance to Kaleen Plaza (approx 5 minutes) It is a mere 9.2 kms to the CBD and 6.2 kms to Belconnen town centre.
