This contemporary home has been beautifully designed to forge a continuous and celebratory connection to nature. Walls of glass make the most of the beautiful open landscape, framing the endless peace of the reserve just across the way. This is family living at its best – sun-drenched, spacious and effortlessly in-sync with the Aussie bush.
The elegant high quality build delivers four bedrooms and a choice of living spaces to suit all moods and occasions. Endless glazing welcomes northern light, framing the quiet drama of gathering kangaroos. The home both open and private, rising discretely from the corner block, nestled behind Manchurian pears and clipped hedges. This little pocket of tranquillity connects you to a variety of walking trails, is just moments from Gungahlin town centre and an easy commute to the inner north and the CBD.
The form is a stunning combo of black steel, white masonry and raw brick. The roofline, a play of angles as a dotting of large windows, hold and reflect the autumnal turnings of the mature gardens. There is a private driveway that ushers to a double garage with the convenience of internal entry.
Reflecting the beauty of the sweeping bush surrounds, the palette is all whites, organic neutrals, notes of timber and pops of oh so cool, black birch ply. There is a mix of ceramic flooring and soft carpets, all in muted greys and the double glazed windows and doors are framed in sleek matt black. The over-sized glass front door with sidelight, opens onto a hallway that gifts a long view to the inviting airy big room beyond, with its lofty raked ceilings and welcoming light. A front living space frames the parkland, its corner windows gifting a cinematic experience of this most amazing site.
The family hub spills to a sheltered outdoor room that floats you both amidst the garden and the compelling natural expanse. The kitchens dark tones allows it to sit back, despite its generous scale, making the natural order the absolute hero. We love the long floating island, waterfall of stone worktops, sleek cabinetry that gifts endless storage and the large adjacent walk-in-pantry that doubles down on space to hide the mess. There are quality all electric appliances, including an integrated dishwasher from Bosch.
The master suite is sequestered upstairs, delivering a much needed parental privacy and absolute haven. From here you can look out over the ever-changing colours of the reserve, the epic sky. There is a generous bedroom, living area and office space as well as a walk-in-robe and an ensuite bathroom. The ensuite delivers the luxury of twin rain showers, hydronic heated towel rack and bespoke vanity in concordant black birch ply.
Downstairs, three welcoming bedrooms, all with custom built-in-robes centre around a stunning family bathroom with a slipper tub. Both bathrooms feature floor-to-ceiling tiling that combines natural patterning with sumptuous feature mosaics. The third bedroom opens directly onto a neatly curated back garden, with circular lawn, curve of box hedging and towering Manchurian pears.
Moncrieff is one of Canberra's newer suburbs and is made up of new homes that capitalise on the dramatic surrounding landscape. The home sits directly across from Yunggaballi Park Playground, Ginninderra Creek and open reserve. Various walking trails, including the Bicentennial Trail connect to wetlands, parks, endless bushland. The home is a few minutes from the colourful Moncrieff Community Recreation Park which is Canberra's favourite playground! Gungahlin town centre is 9 minutes away offering great shopping and dining experiences with Cornerstone Café and Bar, being a friendly, local favourite. Casey Marketplace is close to hand and Coles at Amaroo is moments away, and the home is a mere 16km from the CBD.
