What's around 26 Rankin Street

Distinctively Luxurious, Solar Passive Design

Experience the best suburban life has to offer within this multi-award winning, solar-passive Inner-North residence. Made for year-round entertaining and relaxation, this expertly designed, and utterly unique family home has been thoughtfully crafted to offer a haven of golden light, warmth, and flowing living spaces from indoors to out. Set on a very tightly held street within the exclusive suburb of Campbell, the iconic and awe-inspiring residence features a spacious floorplan with sweeping high ceilings and north-facing floor-to-ceiling timber windows throughout the open lounge area, through to the beautiful chef's kitchen with a large walk-in pantry, stone benchtops and high-end Miele appliances, and out to the adjoining dining space. When you can tear yourself away from the exquisite garden views and abundant birdlife, you'll find a secreted away media room for late-night movies, or as an optional rumpus room. Ready for the most distinguishing entertainers, the home's stunning exteriors have been sculpted to create ideal outdoor living spaces for different times of the day and year, as well as a refuge for essential bird and insect life. The epitome of family living, the upstairs houses the parent's retreat complete with a walk-in-robe, deluxe ensuite, parents retreat/separate study or nursery, while the remaining bedrooms are segregated across the lower portion of this architecturally-designed residence. The flexible floorplan allows the downstairs bedroom with a kitchenette, private bathroom and a gorgeous front deck with a separate access, as a teenager's retreat, home office or an extended family. Bedroom three is off the front entry and is perfect as a home office, with a large, private balcony for morning coffees and a book, while bedroom four is located at the rear of the home next to the striking bathroom. This multi-award-winning home has an emphasis on energy efficiency with a myriad of features including concrete floors for thermal mass, double-glazed windows, extensive insulation, zoned hydronic under-floor heating, solar panels with battery storage ensuring minimal bills, concrete rainwater storage, and grey water recycling, just to name a few. Additionally, the orientation allows for the multiple living areas being cooled during the morning and afternoon phases depending on the sun's position. Some other features of the home include a large double garage with a huge workshop area, ample storage, and water features front and back. Set moments from the City, Lake Burley Griffin and with easy access across the Canberra region, this iconic, solar-passive home presents a peerless opportunity to live your best life.

Excellent, professional, boutique selling experience

Maria provides excellent service in a 'boutique' and very personalised way. We found this tailored approach most impressive, even in the rapidly evolving economic environment with stricter home financing measures in place for potential buyers. Maria and Gordon also had a very professional yet flexible approach to home-opens; viewing 'by appointment' as well as through more general, advertised home-opens enabled us to accommodate the needs of and focus on genuine, serious buyers and return visitors while remaining open to new interest in the market. Maria helped us to achieve an excellent price for our home. We would happily seek her services for selling or buying again in the future.
