Concealed by trees and drenched in natural light, the luxurious four-bedroom home masterfully capitalises on the block’s unique shape and orientation.The property’s narrow driveway draws you in past its neighbours before opening up onto a large block (over 1200 sqm) backing directly onto a nature reserve.<img alt="9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764-image-0-20231123050142718759-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764-imag.width-800.jpg" width="800">After parking in the two-car garage, you’ll enter the home through a small foyer leading to the kitchen and entertainment spaces.The state-of-the-art kitchen has a wrap-around stone countertop, an island bench/breakfast bar, and two stainless steel Miele ovens.<img alt="9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764-image-0-20231123050140397644-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764-imag.width-800_qQiBtsi.jpg" width="800">It’s also drenched in natural light, with a seamless bay view window on one wall that connects the benches to the ceiling and a transparent backsplash on the other.As you venture past the entertainment space, a set of French doors opens up to a truly epic combined living and dining area.Like most of the spaces in this home, the open-plan living area was designed to maximise the amount of sunlight that shines into the room.This is achieved using north-facing floor-to-ceiling windows and an even bigger skylight above the couch.“The amount of glass in the property to bring in the natural light is incredible,” says <a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/lj-hooker-kippax/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LJ Hooker</a> agent <a href="/agents/eoin-ryan-hicks-2/">Eoin Ryan-Hicks</a>.<img alt="9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764-image-0-20231123050139907294-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764-imag.width-800_DuQoLZ9.jpg" width="800">The space also has two sets of sliding glass doors on each side of the room.The north-facing doors lead out to a generous outdoor entertainment area and deck, while the other will take you onto a porch that overlooks the back lawn.The living room portion of the space sits directly beneath the skylight, adjacent to the backyard and porch.As for the dining area, the space faces out to the north-facing deck, thereby ensuring a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor entertainment.Speaking about the deck, Eoin says it was the owner’s favourite feature of the house.“He’s also added multiple other outdoor living areas to cater depending on the season. If you want a cool afternoon, or if you want a warm afternoon, you can be catered all year round,”<img alt="9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764-image-0-20231123050142429232-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764-imag.width-800_Ox6Uojy.jpg" width="800">Look to your left, and you’ll find a hallway that leads to three kid-sized bedrooms and a shared bathroom.As for the parents, the master bedroom is so big it occupies the home’s entire western wing.Equipped with an ensuite, study, dressing room, sitting room and private patio, the master suite has all the features of a luxury villa.Eoin says the owner was heavily involved in the design of the suite.“He poured his heart and soul into it, and you can see that in all the bespoke features,”The bedroom looks out over the patio and onto the reserve next door. It’s also separated from the suite’s sitting room by a wall with double-sided shelving and built-in feature lighting.The ensuite is massive. It features a diamond-shaped spa, an extra-large shower, and a two-person vanity with double sinks.A home office is also enclosed between the bedroom, ensuite and walk-in wardrobe.<img alt="9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764-image-0-20231123050141292005-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764-imag.width-800_QtrbCKa.jpg" width="800">As a suburb, Macgregor has enormous appeal.Macgregor Primary School is just two minutes away, and there are numerous parks and bushland areas just over the back fence, which Eoin says makes the suburb – and this property, in particular – ideal for families.9 Hayward Street Macgregor goes to auction as part of LJ Hooker&#x27;s Christmas Auction Event from 5:30pm on Wednesday 13 December 2023 at the LJ Hooker Canberra City Office (First Floor, 182/200 City Walk, Canberra ACT 2601).<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/9-hayward-street-macgregor-act-2615-90764/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/spacious-family-oasis-has-plenty-of-tricks-up-its-sleeve/726483" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">the RiotACT</a>

Natural light is truly embraced in this Macgregor family home

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>.
