Last Listing description (June 2024)

This outstanding home stands on a corner block that ranks among one of Canberra's premium addresses and delivers a first-class standard of living courtesy of quality amenities and serene surrounds. Spectacular surrounding gardens bestow a beautiful private ambience and sensory experience that immediately calms.

Full-height picture windows capture, dappled light and provide soothing green backdrops to every room. Delicate Japanese maples, azaleas, cycads, winding pebble-framed stepping stone pathways and water basins combine to create layered scenic depths interspersed with three terraces for outdoor entertaining. A self-contained cottage within the gardens would be ideal for an au pair.

The indulgent master suite to the east not only offers an expansive ensuite and walk-through wardrobe, but has direct access to the gleaming indoor lap pool which lies beneath a cathedral glass ceiling the blue of the sky reflected in the waters below.

Three bedrooms in the opposite ground-floor wing include a second ensuite bedroom and one with concealed home office cabinetry, making it a true dual-purpose space. Upstairs, an enormous rumpus room doubles as a teen retreat with its own ensuite and elevated outdoor terrace providing plenty of indoor and outdoor relaxation space, while downstairs a mix of formal and informal living areas meld high-end style and functionality for vibrant family living and entertaining. Set on a lavish 2265m2 parcel close to the parliamentary triangle, elite schools and Manuka village, this elegant home seamlessly blends convenience with utmost comfort and tranquillity just minutes from Canberra's CBD.
