Privately positioned behind established hedging on an expansive 933sqm parcel, 69 McCaughey Street presents a rare balance of original character, contemporary sophistication and extraordinary inner-north convenience. Set within one of Turner's most peaceful pockets, just 150 metres from the O'Connor shops and an easy, level walk to the city centre, this beautifully renovated and extended residence delivers a genuine sense of retreat without sacrificing connection to its surroundings. Thoughtfully transformed in 2024, the home retains the warmth and character of its original architecture while introducing striking contemporary living spaces designed to embrace the magnificent garden setting. A spectacular new kitchen, dining and living extension forms the heart of the home, where soaring ceilings, expansive architectural glazing and beautiful herringbone flooring create an immediate impression of light and space. The custom kitchen is both elegant and functional, featuring an oversized stone island, matching stone splashback, extensive cabinetry and premium Electrolux appliances including induction cooking and a combination steam oven. A dramatic picture window frames the established gardens like a living artwork, while sliding doors provide a seamless connection to outdoor entertaining. An additional lounge offers a separate, intimate living environment, equally connected to the greenery and providing wonderful flexibility for family life and entertaining.
Accommodation comprises four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with the beautifully appointed contemporary ensuite forming part of the 2024 transformation. A substantial dressing area with extensive custom cabinetry adds excellent storage and everyday practicality, while the renovated bathroom showcases elegant tiling, a generous walk-in shower and refined contemporary finishes. The home's exceptional comfort is supported by ducted reverse-cycle heating and cooling, underfloor in-slab heating to the new living spaces and ensuite, gas instantaneous hot water and hyperfast fibre-to-the-premises connectivity. Beyond the interiors, the established gardens are a defining feature, creating a wonderfully immersive landscape of mature trees, lush lawns, layered planting and complete visual privacy. Equally suited to quiet afternoons or large family gatherings, the outdoor spaces have been lovingly maintained as an extension of the home's living environment. An oversized double tandem garage, adjoining separate studio and extensive additional secure off-street parking provide remarkable versatility for vehicles, hobbies, creative pursuits or working from home. Combining the authenticity of a character residence with the quality of a carefully considered contemporary extension, this is an exceptional opportunity to enjoy privacy, space and enduring architectural appeal in one of Canberra's most tightly held inner-north locations.
