With Mulligans Flat Nature Reserve on its doorstep, this striking contemporary residence pairs a peaceful bushland setting with generous family living. Two living areas, a ground-floor guest suite, and a balcony among the treetops give everyone room to spread out and relax.
A sunken lounge room at the front of the home offers a separate space for relaxing or hosting guests. A gallery-style hallway then leads through to the heart of the home.
The open-plan living and dining area is generous in scale, flowing out to the covered alfresco. Alongside, the standout kitchen is anchored by a long stone island bench with seating, gas cooking, and ample storage, supported by a walk-in butler's pantry.
Also on the ground floor, the fourth bedroom includes its own ensuite and walk-in robe, working perfectly for guests, teenagers, or extended family.
Upstairs, the main bedroom is a private retreat, with a walk-in robe, an ensuite with double vanity, and an expansive north-facing balcony framed by leafy treetops. Bedrooms two and three both have built-in robes and share the main bathroom, complete with a freestanding bath. A peaceful sitting area at the top of the stairs provides a relaxing spot for homework or working from home.
Outdoors, the covered alfresco features a built-in barbecue preparation space, overlooking a generous lawn with room for children and pets to play. A rainwater tank, well-established landscaping, and side gate access complete the picture.
This home sits on the edge of Mulligans Flat Nature Reserve, with the sanctuary entrance on Amy Ackman Street close by for bushwalks and birdwatching. The Forde shops, home to local favourite Frankies at Forde, are a short walk away. Neville Bonner Primary School and Burgmann Anglican School are both nearby, and Gungahlin Town Centre is only minutes from home.
