This soulful three-bedder is perfectly orientated on the block to maximise privacy, solar ingress and enjoyment of the garden. High garden walls and a stunning botanical arrangement further the already pristine tranquillity. The home shouting a big mid-century modern welcome from the get-go, with its banks of timber windows, clean lines and gorgeous natural flow. Think spill to decks on two sides, raked ceilings, dappled light and a sensitive renovation that perfectly blends the old with new.
Sitting on the curve of a quiet cul-de-sac, the home is quite the haven, while still being well-connected to all the enticements of the Belco scene. There is a surrounding of communal green by-ways, parks, ovals and reserves. And it is a short stroll to the local shops so you can grab a pizza from Mills and Grills, delicious empanadas from Cesars, or great coffee from The Irvine Café and Bar.
The home and the landscape speak as one, the broad front deck floating you amidst a cornucopia of beautiful plantings. Think, an avenue of silver birches and a garden path that takes you on a journey, past the fish pond and all the way to the rear terrace that floats above a sea of green. At the front, a driveway ushers to a double garage and the courtyard entry sequence is dotted with sculptural yuccas.
Within easy care timber laminate flooring floats beneath high raked ceilings. Light tumbles through banks of floor-up awning windows and large social spaces flow from one to the next. We love the high set clerestory windows in the multipurpose space, their gorgeous architectural lines. And we love the way both social spaces open effortlessly to outside so you can enjoy life among the trees and entertain with ease.
The central family hub is an open affair with lots of space for living and dining beneath the windows. The kitchen sits in one corner and serves up a long peninsula for relaxed gathering, banks of warm timber storage and patterned stone worktops that evoke tidal sand. There is long linear shelving for display of hand-crafted ceramics and a stainless-steel splash back to match the stainless-steel appliances.
The master bedroom is nice and big with a wall of great storage and lots of natural light. Ribbon windows frame the bed and there is the convenience of direct access to the two-way bathroom – beautifully renovated with seamless patterned grey tiling across both the floors and walls. There is a frameless glass rain shower and twin basins atop a wall hung vanity. The home delivers another two bedrooms, both with built-in-robes, a clever internal laundry with fabulous cabinetry and a separate family bathroom. There is direct access to the rear deck as well, so you have a choice of spaces to unwind and connect with nature.
It is not far to the local Florey and Page shops, a mix of schools and the much-loved village centres of Cook and Aranda. It is also whisper close to Westfield Belconnen, Jamison Centre, the walking trails of Mt Painter reserve and The Pinnacle, and a short drive to the Arboretum. It is not far to Lake Ginninderra and the popular restaurants of Emu Bank, including the Lighthouse Pub on the water's edge. The bustling Belconnen precinct is just moments away and the home is also close to transport, the AIS, Bruce Stadium and the UC. It is a mere 19 minutes' drive to the CBD and the ANU.
