25 Ambalindum Street

Hawker ACT 2614

number 25 is the epitome of grace & style, a true entertainer's
home, symbolic of the heights which may be attained with effort
& aspiration. Over the years, the owners have renovated &
styled it to reflect their own eclectic tastes, & the
phenomenal results speak for themselves.

Great street appeal is achieved with contemporary colour
schemes, pergolas, window sunshades, a circular driveway & fine
landscaping. Its external magnificence sets the scene for the
visual delights awaiting inside.

First impressions are dominated by the abundance of sunlight
streaming in due to the north orientation. Light & bright is an
understatement. White plantation shutters abound on windows &
doors, emphasising the home's clean lines. This property is a
veritable fashion statement.

Not every formal living room is spacious enough to comfortably
house a grand piano. This one is. The functional, open fireplace
with painted mantelpiece & marble hearth is an ode to old world
atmosphere & the as-new ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning
is more than adequate. Lush carpeting flows to the adjacent, formal
dining room which could easily accommodate a dinner party of 12.
Its marvellous modern light fitting makes a memorable impact.

The distinctive kitchen complements the rest of the home,
seamlessly integrating with the substantial family room &
combined informal meal's area. A granite-topped island bench shares
its space with a Blanco double stainless steel sink. Most other
appliances are Bosch, including the 5-burner gas hot plates &
the dishwasher. Routed polyurethane cabinetry gives this room an
ageless, classic feel. A generous appliance cabinet & pantry
complete the picture.

Hints of Hampton's style are evident in the aforementioned
family/meal's space. Pale grey painted timber panelling works well
with the elegant monochrome finishes & timber-look flooring. A
beautiful built-in gas fireplace provides both aesthetic &
practical warmth. Access points on opposite sides of the home lead
to 2 timber-decked outdoor alfresco areas, one of which is covered.
This ensures an ease of ebb & flow movement when entertaining
large gatherings.

Wide hallways & bedrooms are warmly carpeted. All the roomy
secondary bedrooms are solar passive, 2 of which harbour mirrored
built-in robes. Each overlooks the front garden. An attractively
renovated main bathroom with spa bath is close by & the large
laundry with heaps of storage & bench space abuts a convenient
powder room.

The segregated main bedroom is a suite in itself, impressively
luxurious but retaining a relaxed ambiance. Its huge walk-in robe
adjoins a spacious ensuite, the revamp mimicking the theme of the
bathroom. A quality corner vanity unit, a bidet & ceiling
height tiling feature here.
