Scale, separation and outdoor connection define this impressive two-storey residence in the heart of Forde. Designed for growing families who value space and versatility, the home offers multiple living zones across both levels, anchored by a generous open plan heart that flows seamlessly to a covered alfresco.
The lower level is centred around a spacious family area that connects effortlessly to the kitchen and dining zone. The modern, over-sized kitchen provides ample bench space, a breakfast bar, and walk-in pantry storage. A separate rumpus room at the far end of the home adds flexibility, whether used as a media space, children's retreat or secondary lounge, with bi-fold glass sliding doors that expand out to the alfresco, extending the living outdoors for year-round entertaining. A multi-purpose room and separate toilet on this level further enhance functionality for guests, work-from-home needs or an additional living zone.
Upstairs, accommodation is thoughtfully arranged for comfort and privacy. The master bedroom is generously proportioned and complemented by a large robe, ensuite and balcony, creating a genuine retreat. The three additional bedrooms are positioned nearby and are serviced by the central bathroom with a bathtub and separate toilet for everyday convenience.
With great proportions, high ceilings, and a layout that supports both entertaining and everyday family life, this is a substantial and well-considered home in one of Forde's most desirable pockets.

Forde, a master-planned community, offers 11 main parks and 39 hectares of wetlands and nature reserves, all designed to encourage eco-friendly activity. Every home is conveniently located within 200 meters of a landscaped park, wetland, or nature reserve, with 29% of the suburb dedicated to green space.
Mulligans Flat Nature Reserve is rich in natural habitat, Indigenous history, and vibrant European heritage. It is one of the ACT's premier bird-watching spots, home to the rare regent honeyeater and Forde's own superb fairy wren. Along with nearby Goorooyarroo, these reserves shelter four native bird species, as well as rare shingleback lizards, echidnas, frogs, and various reptiles
