Some homes just feel right the moment you arrive. 81 Banambila Street is one of those rare places - calm, welcoming, and beautifully connected to its surroundings.
Thoughtfully transformed in 2005 by architect Alistair McCallum (AMC Projects), this four-bedroom, single-level home has been designed to make everyday living feel easy and effortless. With a north-facing aspect, the home is filled with natural light and enjoys year-round comfort.
Set on an elevated 796m² block in one of Aranda's most tightly held streets, the home offers a generous 239.8m² of living space while still feeling private and peaceful. Whether you're raising a family, working from home, or simply wanting space to breathe, the layout adapts beautifully to every stage of life.
At the heart of the home, the living spaces flow naturally to a large, private courtyard - ideal for entertaining, family time, or quiet mornings with coffee. Large windows create a seamless connection to the garden and surrounding greenery.
The main bedroom is a true retreat. Overlooking the garden, it features soaring glass windows with electric external blinds, a generous walk-in wardrobe, and a stylish ensuite. It's a place to slow down, unwind, and feel completely at ease.
Three additional bedrooms are comfortable and well-sized with built-in robes, while the fourth bedroom offers flexibility as a study or home office. Updated bathrooms, a contemporary kitchen with quality stainless steel appliances, and excellent storage make day-to-day living simple and functional.
Comfort is thoughtfully considered year-round, featuring reverse-cycle air conditioning for heating and cooling the open-plan living areas, underfloor heating in the bedrooms and ensuite, high-quality double-glazed windows, and abundant natural sunlight to ensure a consistently comfortable living environment.
With Aranda Bushland just moments away and the city only 7.1km from your door, you're close to excellent schools, universities, hospitals, and shopping - yet surrounded by a quiet, friendly community and a sense of escape from the everyday.
This is a home designed for living well - light-filled, private, and deeply connected to nature - in one of Canberra's most loved suburbs.
