Scullin ACT 2614

The quality of the workmanship by a multitude of professionals in renovating this home will be truly appreciated by our new owners. Now all the hard work has been completed, it is over to the new family to enjoy this beautifully renovated residence.

The privacy of the huge parcel of land on arrival will start the wheels moving. Everything has been thought through by the current owners well before renovations started. The house has been designed simply as an entertainers home, with multiple locations for family and friends to gather. The carport doubles as under-cover entertaining area and flows to the timber deck, with the water feature welcoming you near the front door.

Upon entering the home, the floating bamboo flooring is complemented by the bright colours of the artwork, ensuring youre in for a surprise. The living area is spacious with corner windows looking out to the reserve, and the kitchen is ready for any future MasterChefs to enjoy. The walk-in pantry is huge, and the storage on offer is fantastic, with bamboo benchtops wrapped around to the dining room. Additional living takes the shape of the enclosed purpose-built spa room for the 7m swim-spa, able to be used comfortably at all times of the year. A study area is set aside from the living areas, which has proven very useful for the family over the last 6 months.

Its always great when the king-sized master bedroom allows other furniture, and wait for the WOW factor when you see the walk-in-robe and the ensuite. These three rooms form the brilliant parents retreat, taking over one corner of the home. Two of the three other bedrooms are queen sized with built-in robes.

The space and the storage capacity of the home is rare. As well as the massive workshop area at the back of the double garage, there is even an outdoor she-shed storage room off to the side. The double garage and workshop could easily be converted to storing 4 cars.

The design of the home was in keeping with the Radburn design principles of the 1960s, with the front of the home looking out to a peaceful reserve, allowing direct access to shops and schools.

The location allows access to Westfield Belconnen, walking distance of only 30 minutes, without having to cross a main road. Transport options are close by, as well as excellent private and public schools.

What our owners say:
We are proud of the renovations we have had done over the last 8 years, but now it is time to pass the mantle to another family. In our renovations, we decided to spoil ourselves and take over one of the bedrooms as our dressing room, and that room always receives a WOW from friends who visit. The swim-spa in the purpose-built spa room is also another treat that the new family will hopefully enjoy for many years to come. The privacy and serenity of being away from the street on such a huge parcel of land is fantastic - and looking out to the reserve is lovely, so we know the new family will be happy here. In the end, it may be leaving the massive 4 car garage / workshop area, is going to be harder than we think.

Smart buyers know that Scullin represents excellent value-for-money and this could very easily be your forever home.
