Last Listing description (November 2016)

This superb residence is an absolute masterpiece, combining
exquisite attention to detail and beautifully composed living
spaces. It is constructed of everyday materials and effortlessly

integrates with it's surrounds without pretension.

Designed by Cox Humphries Moss Architects, and constructed
by the internationally recognised Bellevarde
Constructions, this outstanding design won an RAIA (Royal
Australian Institute of Architects) award for residential
architecture 2008.

The building form is broken into four parts. Each part is linked by
enclosed walkways and encompasses 3 levels of impeccable finishes
and carefully considered materials, such as bluestone tiles and
polished concrete. The custom designed joinery is beautifully
executed where joints, connections and junctions are seamless.

An abundance of natural light and chic delineation unifies the 3
bedroom, 3 bathroom floorplan with skyline views offering a unique
personality.

The form ensures excellent light penetration, cross ventilation and
lovely elevated, ambient private courtyards.

The Canberra climate has informed the design philosophy for the
house: thermal mass, night purging, window shading, stormwater
harvesting and in-slab heating have all been included in the
project.

Bougainville Street offers a vibrant lifestyle when desired and a
tranquil retreat when needed. The retail and dining mecca is a
