Packed with light, space and storage, this lovely four-bedroom, study plus ensuite family home enjoys a warm spirit and a wonderful spatial balance. A sensitive re-jig has added warm detailing, honouring the homes clean mid-century lines. The garden is a blessing of bright flowering trees, attracting birds and gifting an organic peaceful immersion.
Sitting low behind a lush enclosure, the home bashfully hides its classic form of brick, timber panels and combo of ribbon and casement corner windows. Murchison is a quiet loop street close to schools and the local Kaleen shops. A mix of Eucalypts shade the footpaths and it's an easy stroll through connecting green spaces to the local park.
Bespoke joinery, including warm Tassie oak open shelving, surrounds a stunning blue granite mantel and ethanol fireplace within the cosy living area. Think beautifully curated displays of books and treasures adding to a calming, intimate atmosphere. This mature space is all about elegant repose as the kids enjoy a movie or play within the adjacent family room.
Enjoy evening gatherings with friends as the kids sleep quietly at the other end of the house, away from the activity.
Bankable sliders further privatise the combined living and dining and usher to the enormous kitchen and second living area. This warm and functional family hub is characterised by banks of storage, a central island with seating, and large window above the double sink, welcoming both light and vista. There is enough space here for the kids to play adjacent or get involved with cooking, fostering family togetherness and relaxed mealtimes.
A blush of pink and blue pastels saturates two of the bedrooms with a soft, playful ambience, while floor to ceiling windows capture all the colours of the garden. A third bedroom or home office sits adjacent to the family bathroom with tub and separate toilet.
The master is housed privately at the end of the hallway with a fresh splash of Eucalypt green that reflects the botanical surrounds. There is a walk-through-robe to keep the clutter at bay and a lovely modern ensuite bathroom. There is also a walk-in-office which could easily be utilised as a nursery or become a spacious dressing room/robe, creating space for a larger, luxurious ensuite.
Roses, apple tree, crepe myrtle and petunias revolve with colour throughout the seasons within the sunny family garden. It is easy to imagine long weekend lunches beneath the outdoor shelter, draped in age-old purple flowering wisteria, the kids playing on the soft lawn as the sun fades. A quaint garden studio sits in one corner, fitted with warm carpet and ethanol fireplace to keep things snug in winter, so you can be creative all year round.
Kaleen is in the Belconnen district and shoulders the inner north suburbs of Lyneham and O'Connor, connecting to Gungaderra Grasslands Nature Reserve.

With plenty of parks, bike and walking trails, the home is also within walking distance to Kaleen Plaza, and just a short 10-minute drive to Belconnen and 14 minutes approx. to the CBD.
