Located in one of Forde's most sought-after streets is Harcourts Brindabella's latest offering to hit the market.

A striking home that certainly stands out with its 6-metre-high front window. Upon entry, the enormous formal lounge/dining room space is prevalent with a two-story high void, offering plentiful light and an abundance of space. The modern kitchen is simply enormous and offers a plethora of stone benchtop and storage space as well as a walk-in pantry and Bosch appliances. The kitchen opens to an enormous family room that features a magnificent open flame gas fireplace and ceramic tiled floor. This flows seamlessly out to a large covered alfresco area via Bi-fold sliding doors and that features built in cabinetry including fridge and BBQ recess. 

The easy-care yard is ample in size yet small enough to keep your weekends free from large scale gardening. A huge plus in this home is the open parkland right across the street. This not only provides extra play space for kids, it also offers incredible privacy and space with not having a home directly opposite. 

The ground floor also has a separate toilet and powder room with an extra-large laundry with stone benchtop and abundant storage and outdoor access. 
Moving upstairs and the grandeur continues with the master suite reflective of a 6-star hotel. The huge designer ensuite has a full-size bath with a view, separate toilet and shower, floor to ceiling storage cupboards and stone top custom made vanities. . The bedroom hides a massive walk through wardrobe with custom cabinetry. The three remaining rooms all have built in sliding mirror door wardrobes and carpet flooring with a second bathroom with bath and separate shower on the same floor

Step inside and be prepared for WOW! 

Architecturally designed over 3 levels and impeccably handcrafted 10 years ago by builders from Finland, this home has been maintained to the highest of standards and offers all the bespoke fixtures and fittings you would expect from a contemporary family home. 

Sitting proudly on one of the most elevated locations in Forde, the surrounding views from both levels of this beautiful home are spectacular, reaching down to Gungahlin and beyond to the Brindabella Mountain range. 

Awash with a north-easterly orientation the spectacular residence features three separate living areas of impressive proportions, four large bedrooms, all with built in robes, the master bedroom suite on the upper level offering large walk-in-robe, ensuite, parents retreat and private balcony.  

Designed for both relaxed living and entertaining the ground floor design incorporates plenty of space for the whole family to spread out and enjoy with formal lounge, dining, family room and large rumpus currently being used as a work from home office.  A guest bedroom is also located on this level along with a well-appointed kitchen that flows onto large outdoor entertaining area, pool and flat grassed back yard.
