45 Woollum Cres, Rivett is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom House with 2 parking spaces and was built in 1970. The property has a land size of 694m2 and floor size of 160m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in October 2023.
In addition to the contemporary mod cons available at every turn, this fully renovated single-level home has a wonderful charismatic character and charming feel.
It starts at the entry where graceful arches give way to an intriguing front verandah. With an oversized solid cedar statement door and punctuated with a lucite-covered pergola, it's memorable and moody, as well as a great place to kick back on a summer's day with cocktail in hand.
Inside, a carefully considered floorplan segregates living from resting. The loungeroom to the front is large enough to take even the biggest sectional furniture. A sleek kitchen boasts Smeg appliances, quality materials, a 5-seat stone benchtop that takes the overflow from the already-generous dining room adjacent, and a pass through into the family room a fabulous, sunny space with upholstered bench seat and cedar feature wall. Also within this area is a European laundry concealed behind custom joinery with easy access outside.
All bedrooms are lovely and uplifting, light and bright and have good proportions. The main bedroom has a walk in robe, and ensuite recently renovated. The main bathroom has also been upgraded and has a fresh and easy configuration to operate in. There's also hidden bonus outside, with three steps leading to an attached converted garage with kitchen and bathroom. Already boasting a reverse-cycle air conditioner, it would make an ideal rumpus, gym or home business office or could easily be adapted to rent out with its separate lockable entry from the side of the property.
Among the many other advantages is this home's proximity to some of suburban Canberra's hidden delights. The excellent Pitch Black Caf is an easy walk away, as the Bicentennial Trail and Narrabundah Hill walking tracks. Cooleman Court and Duffy Primary are within 2km and it's under 10 minutes' drive to Woden and only a short 10 minute ride to Stromlo Forrest Park and all it's lifestyle amenities.
