MacGregor home the perfect 'blank canvas' for designing a life in Belconnen

If ever there was a home worthy of the moniker ‘family-sized’, it’s this one.

With five bedrooms, an updated kitchen and light-filled living spaces inside and out, there’s a lot for the entire family to love about 8 Sax Place, MacGregor.

“Either an extended or large family, or someone looking for extra space, would be the most likely buyers,” Luton Properties Kippax real estate agent Ben Oostermeyer says.

The master bedroom comes with ensuite and walk-in robe and is positioned away from the remaining four generously-sized bedrooms, which all include built-in robes.

But families will likely prefer to spend their time together in one of the two large, bright living areas. Both rooms are covered in white from floor to ceiling, courtesy of a fresh coat of paint and light-coloured porcelain tiles.

“You’ve also got a directly north-facing front door, which brings in a lot of natural light through the day,” Ben says.

The formal living and dining rooms are positioned adjacent to the master suite at the front of the home, while the family and dining area at the rear offers easy access to the garden and kitchen.

Home chefs will enjoy views of the garden from the refurbished kitchen, which includes a new bench top and appliances, including a glass cooktop, dishwasher and oven.

Slide open the glass doors and you’ll find yourself in the back garden, which Ben says is quite a bit larger than you might expect from a 615sqm block.

“It’s set up to be a fairly low maintenance yard, but you could redevelop it into a gardener’s haven or just grass it out and set it up for kids to play,” Ben says.

There are also already plenty of opportunities to enjoy the great outdoors, with established shade trees and privacy plantings, a handy utility space to the side of the house and a double gate to an adjacent reserve.

“It’s a very quiet location,” Ben says.

“There are open paddocks nearby you can enjoy while walking, but it’s also only a couple of streets away from bus routes.”

For the energy conscious or those looking to live more sustainably, a 28 solar panel array, two 5 kilowatt inverters, and a substantial water tank and pressure pump are also included.

Creature comforts include ducted gas heating and a double garage with an electric door and internal access, complemented by plenty of off-street parking options for guests.

Number 8 Sax Place, MacGregor, will be auctioned at 2pm on Saturday 2 September 2023.
