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 <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/8-sax-place-macgregor-act-2615-84408/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">8 Sax Place, MacGregor</a>.“Either an extended or large family, or someone looking for extra space, would be the most likely buyers,” <a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/luton-kippax/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Luton Properties Kippax</a> real estate agent <a href="/agents/ben-oostermeyer/">Ben Oostermeyer</a> says.<div>

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.<img alt="8-sax-place-macgregor-act-2615-84408-image-0-20230809031634595265-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/8-sax-place-macgregor-act-2615-84408-image-0-2.width-800.jpg" width="800">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.<img alt="8-sax-place-macgregor-act-2615-84408-image-0-20230809031634844583-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/8-sax-place-macgregor-act-2615-84408-image-0-2.width-800_5h8CdAd.jpg" width="800">“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.”<img alt="8-sax-place-macgregor-act-2615-84408-image-0-20230809031636859374-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/8-sax-place-macgregor-act-2615-84408-image-0-2.width-800_HKO2MoB.jpg" width="800">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.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/8-sax-place-macgregor-act-2615-84408/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/light-and-bright-family-home-recently-updated-to-perfection-goes-to-auction/692101" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Riotact</a>.

“The entrance to the home is peaceful and inviting,” Ben says.“You can bask on the private sun deck, which connects the home to the garden beautifully.“The deck allows you to use that space privately and then just enjoy so much more of the block, which is about 820sqm in total.”<img alt="4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-0-20230712061633306971-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-.width-800.jpg" width="800">The sun deck extends from a covered verandah, which runs along the full length of the home’s facade, with lots of room for seating, pot plants and other decorative additions.But the established back garden is where green thumbs will truly shine, with a rose garden, active bulbs and fruit trees ensuring something is happening year-round.<img alt="4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-0-20230712061634192851-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-.width-800_aTA0Ujo.jpg" width="800">The terraced design also offers lots of little spaces to explore or entertain guests, all of which are completely private thanks to wrap-around privacy screening.“You could go up the back where there is a reasonable outlook over McKellar and set up a cosy little entertaining space with a fire pit,” Ben saysBut if you’re hosting a larger group of friends or family, Ben says the extensive paved entertaining space at the base of the backyard is the place to be.<img alt="4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-0-20230712061634796260-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-.width-800_ifO2Yil.jpg" width="800">On wintry Canberra days when you retreat inside to the comfort of the ducted gas-heated (and freshly painted) interior, Ben says you won’t be sacrificing garden views.“The house really does have that front-to-back connection to nature,” he says.“You can enjoy both the front and back parts of the block, but also enjoy it from inside.”<img alt="4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-0-20230712061635847642-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-.width-800_LiMaCuB.jpg" width="800">“Extremely well kept” is the best way to sum up the inside of the home, Ben says, which features two separate living spaces.At the front of the home, a spacious living and dining area features full-height windows with expansive views of the front yard, including its fairytale vine-wrapped pergola.Meanwhile, at the rear of the home, the family room sits adjacent to the terraced back garden and kitchen, and captures lots of natural light courtesy of its sunny, northerly aspect.<img alt="4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-0-20230712061636348193-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-.width-800_HUWfqwH.jpg" width="800">The home’s three bedrooms feature garden views and are conveniently clustered around the main bathroom. Plus, two of the three bedrooms include built-in robes.Ben says young families inspecting the home have been impressed by the size of the block and its location in the central Belconnen district suburb of McKellar, just a short walk from a number of natural attractions, including Croke Place Wetlands, William Palmer Park and Dulwa Beach.<img alt="4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-0-20230712061636632453-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968-image-.width-800_fk2fJ4Q.jpg" width="800">“The whole suburb has elevation, so almost anywhere you go, you’ve got a view,” Ben says.The residential block is RZ2 zoned, meaning there is the potential to redevelop the site or for a family to settle into the move-in-ready home now and extend it down the track.Number <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">4 Sinnett Place</a> in McKellar goes to auction at 12 noon on Saturday 5 August 2023.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/4-sinnett-place-mckellar-act-2617-82968/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/green-thumbs-heaven-three-bedroom-mckellar-home-on-picture-perfect-block/684224" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Riotact</a>.
