The main bedroom, with its walk-through wardrobe and tastefully renovated ensuite bathroom, sits on the ground floor along with the kitchen, living and dining rooms. The ensuite boasts a bath, double vanity, skylight, a heated towel rail and luxurious underfloor heating.</p><p data-block-key="8i03i">“Having the master bedroom downstairs along with a generous-sized study, great storage and a double lock-up garage with internal access makes the design very appealing,” Rick says.</p><p data-block-key="3mg6a">“The owners can – and have been – living in it as though it were a single-level dwelling.”</p><img alt="2-72-novar-street-yarralumla-act-2600-97127-image-0-20240307043140802558-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/2-72-novar-street-yarralumla-act-2600-97127-im.width-800_zVyNCAl.jpg" width="800"><p data-block-key="cal64">The kitchen at the heart of the home is fitted and positioned for entertaining.

From the light and bright living room with its beautiful northerly aspect, double sliding doors lead out to a beautiful courtyard. This sits in a cherished garden with a well-maintained lawn and veggie and herb planters.</p><p data-block-key="3riun">“The owners are downsizers but also passionate gardeners, and you can see that they had just enough garden to enjoy it, but not so much that it became a chore,” Rick says.</p><img alt="2-72-novar-street-yarralumla-act-2600-97127-image-0-20240307043145398431-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/2-72-novar-street-yarralumla-act-2600-97127-im.width-800_TMKNbVS.jpg" width="800"><p data-block-key="3nh1j">The home has always boasted light-filled interiors, excellent proportions and the thoughtful ‘Willemsen’ characteristics for which its designer is renowned.

That’s what you get here,” Rick says.</p><p data-block-key="63g9s">Other functional features include ceiling fans and split-system air conditioning for comfort, a separate ground-floor powder room and garden irrigation.</p><p data-block-key="aff97">There’s also a double garage with internal access, which Rick says cars will rarely need to leave.</p><p data-block-key="eeti4">“You can leave the car at home because everything is a stroll away through the lovely, tree-lined streets. Aside from the lake, vibrant shops and eateries, there’s parkland, the yacht club, a dog park and a golf course,” he says.</p><p data-block-key="888ln">“There’s a reason Yarralumla has so long been a very sought-after suburb.”</p><p data-block-key="en3sq"></p><p data-block-key="59h0b"><b>2/72 Novar Street, Yarralumla goes to auction Thursday 28 March at 6:00pm (guide is for offers over $1.6 million).</b></p><p data-block-key="530bt"><a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/2-72-novar-street-yarralumla-act-2600-97127/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><b>View the full listing.</b></a></p><p data-block-key="bbve4"><i>Article originally written and published by</i> <a href="https://the-riotact.com/willemsen-design-in-distinguished-location-a-short-stroll-from-lake-burley-griffin/753056" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><i>the RiotACT</i></a></p>
