Last Listing description (November 2020)
This delightful gracious and spacious family home, with a separate self-contained studio, is waiting for the next family to enjoy the many benefits this property has to offer.
Nestled within Gellibrand Street, backing onto nature reserve, the property is situated on a generous block of 983m (approx.). The Crown Lease has been amended and renewed to permit dual occupancy (subject to unit title approval).
Spacious accommodation, immaculate presentation and an outstanding location, this much-loved family home has it all. The entrance foyer opens to the light-filled living area with double doors opening to an enormous dining room which flows to the outdoor terrace. The renovated kitchen, with quality appliances and abundant cupboard space including a pantry, is ideally positioned beside the meals area and family room and leads to the outdoor terrace.
The large master bedroom includes a renovated ensuite and fabulous walk-in wardrobe. There are two additional bedrooms with the main bathroom ideally located near the bedrooms.
The outdoor terrace and deck, with an overhead wisteria draped over the pergola providing a natural canopy, is an ideal area for large family gatherings and overlooks the rear garden with views through to the Brindabellas. Children will enjoy outdoor activities in the garden with a gate in the rear fence opening to the huge level nature reserve, a perfect spot for a game of cricket or football.
The self-contained studio, with its own private courtyard and workshop, is located in the rear garden providing wonderful extra family accommodation for teenagers, guests or elderly family members who require separate accommodation. The studio includes living area, kitchenette and bathroom. This area also provides the option of a private rental or, alternatively, is an ideal home office.
Both the irrigated front and rear gardens include a huge variety of plants and trees including established sasanqua camellias, rhododendrons, azaleas, choisyas and a magnificent tulip tree in the rear garden. A path meanders from the reserve down to the Campbell shops and Primary School. The home is in close proximity to Russell Offices, St Thomas More's Catholic Primary School, Canberra Grammar Northside Early Childhood School and Campbell High School.
