Last Listing description (May 2019)
Located close to the Turner/O'Connor border, this
architecturally designed, circa 2003 Better Building Services home
has been created with entertainment & enjoyment of living in
mind. Nestled on a generous acre plot of land, the mature Viburnum
hedge hugging the boundary allows residents & their guests to
savour this sanctuary in privacy.
The glamorous, open-plan living areas are characterised by
soaring 3.5-metre-high ceilings, both are large & flexible
enough to allow banquet dining if the occasion demanded it. A slow
combustion open firebox provides a finishing atmospheric touch. A
covered courtyard protected from the elements divides the formal
living space from the solar oriented family room & meals area.
The western red cedar window frames & double glazing throughout
accentuates the quality of this offering.
The artful kitchen provides an island bar with stone benchtop,
perfect to either briefly rest a glass of Moet or provide the
sturdy base for trays of hors d'oeuvres when entertaining. Quality
cabinetry & 1.5-year-old Smeg appliances including a 1 oven, 2
draw dishwasher, 4 burner gas cooktop & built-in microwave are
as you would expect in such an abode. Close by is a wine storage
room that houses 990 bottles with ease; adjacent is a beautiful
Tasmanian blackwood display cabinet that stays with the home - as
do the Vintec wine fridges.
A few steps up from the formal entry is the 5th bedroom, home
office or even rumpus as it adjoins the segregated, sumptuous main
bedroom suite. The main bedroom has ample room for a King-size bed
with side tables, & the built-in media unit is a nice touch.
The huge, naturally-lit, walk-in dressing room will excite &
the luxurious ensuite with both shower & spa bath tops it
off.
The secondary bedroom wing contains 3 very roomy bedrooms all
with built-ins. A stylishly large main bathroom also serves this
part of the home. Not far away is the laundry with provincial-style
sink & internal access from the larger-than-average (44.5m2)
double garage.
An intercom-controlled front security gate, remote-controlled
driveway gate & internal sensor security system allows peace of
mind. Superbly landscaped, Asian-influenced grounds will be a haven
especially with its eclectic mix of small trees, shrubs &
flowering plants. Alfresco dining should be the norm with all the
balmy evenings ahead, you are sure to get good use of the protected
outdoor kitchen & heated courtyard space. Guests will be
spoiled for choice contemplating the best order to sample either
the solar heated, self-cleaning pool, 4-person spa, or Finnish elm
sauna.
Proximity to the local O'Connor shops, Civic, the ANU, Black
Mountain nature reserve & a host of other amenities ensures a
unique home such as this will always be in demand.
