Last Listing description (March 2024)
A landmark estate-like residence unlike anything that has come onto the Canberra market in recent times, this exquisitely curated home sitting stately on a 1785m2 block on Mugga Way, exudes a distinctive southern-European elegance that is refined yet welcoming.
Every room opens onto an outdoor space, whether to the ambient gardens where flourishing fragrant jasmine subtly scents the ground floor interiors, or to wistful bespoke-wrought-iron encircled balconies and a private terrace on the main bedroom level upstairs.
As expected of a home on Canberra's Golden Mile, all of the expansive entertaining spaces are present, from the flowing formal lounge and dining spaces that drink in the lush garden vignettes, to the double terraces one overlooking the refurbished pool, the other ringed by a semi-circular open colonnade that invites languid alfresco gatherings.
The day-to-day living zones are equally impressive. There is a delightful sightline from the airy kitchen through the family room to the spectacular curved conservatory and the calming outlook of nature beyond. A wood-burning fireplace is valued for both its sensory appeal and the warmth it offers.
Also on the ground level, a generous private study and a separate den bookend a full bathroom and are sufficiently versatile for use as extra bedrooms or an au pair's quarters.
Secreted upstairs are an additional four king-size charming bedrooms. Two of the secondary bedrooms have an ensuite and walk-in wardrobes. The divine master benefits from a sizeable, covered terrace overlooking the pool, plus a second, north-facing balcony. Along with its dual-sink vanity and shower, the master ensuite with marble also features a spa bath that sits beneath a striking round window.
Discerning buyers will not only appreciate the ornate ceilings, designer finishes and extensive use of high-quality materials - think Haddonstone render, marble to bathrooms, Brushbox floors, Tasmanian Ash kitchen benchtops - but also this home's proximity to elite schools, Red Hill walking trails, boutique shopping and dining, Deakin medical precinct and the Canberra CBD.
