There’s a lot more to the home at <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">3 Berents Street, Strathnairn</a>, than a stylish facade and beautiful design.“The trap that architects and builders can fall into is they make these beautiful properties, but then when a family goes to live in it, it doesn’t really tick all the boxes,&quot; says <a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/peter-blackshaw-gungahlin/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Blackshaw Gungahlin</a> sales consultant and auctioneer <a href="/agents/thom-eriksson-lake/">Thom Eriksson-Lake</a>.<img alt="3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-image-0-20230710014630655077-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-im.width-800.jpg" width="800">“But this builder and architect have really thought of everything that a family needs.&quot;Not just a visually captivating home, but a home that’s really functional for day-to-day living.”Thom says the smart touches in architectural designer Kovarc Studio’s easy-living floorplan are apparent from the moment you walk in the front door.<img alt="3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-image-0-20230710014633068706-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-im.width-800_m7NoCA8.jpg" width="800">Two corridors, one at the entrance and another near the standard bedrooms, are both lined with custom storage joinery for families wondering where to store their kids’ belongings.Thom says one of the owners, who happens to be a builder himself, also makes use of the alternative entrance through the double garage, which includes more storage and a kitchenette and wash space.“He often comes home on wintery days with his boots covered in mud, so he can come in to the garage and wash off all the mud before entering the house,” Thom explains.<img alt="3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-image-0-20230710014634263239-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-im.width-800_91qVXlq.jpg" width="800">The smart design continues throughout the four-bedroom home, which blurs indoor and outdoor living with extra high ceilings, large sliding doors and light-capturing feature windows. At the heart of the home are the family and living rooms with even higher 3.6m ceilings, hickory flooring and highlight windows featuring sheers and automatic dual roller blinds.The living room can be closed off from the adjoining family, dining and kitchen area to create an instant children’s playroom or teenager’s retreat.<img alt="3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-image-0-20230710014634554945-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-im.width-800_siJa2Dw.jpg" width="800">“The owners have a toddler and they use this space as a breakout room, so when he has his little playmates over they can go in there and it’s close enough for parents to keep watch but it’s got that segregation as well,” Thom says.Adjacent to the open-plan family and dining area is the kitchen, which features a 40mm quartz island bench with built-in breakfast bar, butler’s pantry and integrated modern appliances.Only a few steps away is a timber-panelled alfresco area with in-built Sonos speakers and a large-screen TV, which Thom suggests is “ideal for having a grand final party for the footy”.<img alt="3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-image-0-20230710014634823310-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-im.width-800_mk6UXMf.jpg" width="800">Throw in an integrated outdoor kitchen with a Beefmaster barbecue, plumbed sink, fridge and ceiling fan and the hassle of running between the kitchen and your guests is taken away.On the other side of the home lies the master suite with a walk-in robe, sheers and dual roller blinds, and an ensuite featuring a semi-frameless shower and dual vanity basins.The three remaining bedrooms, all with built-in robes and dual roller blinds, are positioned near the main bathroom and diagonally opposite the private master suite.<img alt="3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-image-0-20230710014637799036-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828-im.width-800_dNudbpn.jpg" width="800">Ducted whole-home reverse-cycle heating and cooling with zoning capacity, combined with double-glazed windows, also keeps the bedrooms toasty during winter.Extra smart design goodies include even more storage in the laundry and an in-roof loft, a six-star energy efficiency rating and solar and security systems.Thom says the family-friendly Belconnen district is the cherry on top, with the home just moments away from parkland and the Magpies Golf Club.“We have been inundated with buyer enquiries,” he says.“People are really attracted to the style, the floorplan and the really family-friendly location.”<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">3 Berents Street</a> in Strathnairn goes to auction on at 12 noon on Saturday 5 August 2023.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/3-berents-street-strathnairn-act-2615-82828/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/style-meets-function-near-new-architect-designed-home-more-than-just-a-pretty-face/681751" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The Riotact</a>.

The auction of <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/41-rachel-makinson-street-strathnairn-act-2615-76240/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Strathnairn Charity House</a> was never going to be any ordinary event — but with lightning, torrential rain, the auction crowd huddled in the home’s double garage and two hours of bidding, it’s an event that will be unforgettable for those lucky enough to attend.At the end of Saturday’s marathon two-hour auction, Strathnairn Charity Home sold for $1,596,600: the second highest sale in the suburb to date. The lucky new owners are a family already living in Strathnairn: Naresh, Chamari and their two sons. In a truly special plot twist, Naresh used to work for one the charities benefiting from the proceeds of the sale.<img alt="SCH_Body_Image_800px_532px2" class="richtext-image full-width" height="531" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/SCH_Body_Image_800px_532px2.width-800.png" width="800">“They loved the quality of the fit-out, the multigenerational living option, as well as the extra space they needed for their older children,” sales agent Natalie Kokic Schmidt says.“They could see the home was built with love.“Their neighbours are so happy they’re staying in the suburb so they’ll all be celebrating together once they move in.”<img alt="SCH_Body_Image_800px_532px3" class="richtext-image full-width" height="531" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/SCH_Body_Image_800px_532px3.width-800.png" width="800">It was a truly special day for the designers, builders and marketers of the home — who all volunteered their time to the project — and cheers erupted when the gavel fell. Strathnairn Charity House is a joint venture of Ginninderry and Master Builders ACT, and proceeds from the sale of the home will benefit Hands Across Canberra, Canberra City Care, Pegasus Riding for the Disabled and Karinya House. More than 60 subcontractors and trade suppliers donated time and materials to build the home.As the exclusive property portal for the sale of the home, we’re incredibly proud to announce that Canberrans were just as obsessed with Strathnairn Charity House as we were.<img alt="SCH_Body_Image_800px_532px9" class="richtext-image full-width" height="531" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/SCH_Body_Image_800px_532px9.width-800.png" width="800">More than 98,000 people visited the listing on Zango, generating 363 enquiries. More than 100 groups inspected the home during the 23-day sales and marketing period, and the home now has a spot in Zango’s Top 10 Most Viewed Properties of All Time.Sales agent Lisa Silberberg says enquiries about the ultra-modern four-bedroom, three-bathroom property were strong from the onset.“Early in the campaign, it became very clear that more opportunities to view the home would need to be facilitated,” she says.“We had a phenomenal number of inspections in the current climate. “There was high engagement in the property, and this exponentially exceeded the average engagements achieved across similar homes offered for sale.”For sales agent and auctioneer Sandra Masters, the auction was “the longest single auction I have called”.<img alt="SCH_Body_Image_800px_532px7" class="richtext-image full-width" height="531" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/SCH_Body_Image_800px_532px7.width-800.png" width="800">“It seems like a long auction in hindsight but it didn’t feel that way at the time,” she says.“It’s longer than you’d expect on a standard residential home, but this was no standard sale. “I love auctions so the excitement, the adrenaline, the crowd, it all kept me going. Rain is only a bit of water after all.“I think it was right to give the buyers a bit longer to discuss and decide, we ended up with almost an extra $45,000 in $500 and $1,000 bids, so the extra time was worth it, this is all just money direct to charity.”<img alt="SCH_Body_Image_800px_532px" class="richtext-image full-width" height="531" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/SCH_Body_Image_800px_532px.width-800.png" width="800">For sales agent Cris O’Brien, it&#x27;s an experience she’ll never forget.“It was amazing to work in collaboration with all the wonderful, generous people involved in the initiative to ultimately achieve the best possible result for the local charities,” Cris says.“This was Canberra at its absolute best.”Ginninderry’s Head of Community, Marketing and Communications, Marcus Mills-Smith says the sales campaign for the home finished up a phenomenal two years on the project.&quot;I particularly want to thank our Zango dream team of five female sales agents drawn from a range of Canberra’s leading agencies,&quot; Marcus says.&quot;They became incredible advocates for the home and their commitment to getting the best outcome for our charity partners was obvious.”<h2 data-block-key="e8hi5">Strathnairn Charity House: The numbers</h2>Listing views: 98,725Photo, video and floorplan views: 172,456Enquiries: 363 (includes alerts) Days on market: 23 Sold for: $1,596,600

1,596,600 reasons to celebrate as Strathnairn Charity House sells at ‘unforgettable’ auction

You’ve probably never seen an Old English Sheepdog, a jumping castle and a couple of radio celebrities at the auction of a home before, but this Saturday&#x27;s auction of the <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/41-rachel-makinson-street-strathnairn-act-2615-76240/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Strathnairn Charity House</a> will be anything but ordinary.Two years after the first sod was turned on the four-bedroom, three-bathroom home at <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/41-rachel-makinson-street-strathnairn-act-2615-76240/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">41 Rachel Makinson Street, Strathnairn</a>, the critical moment - the sale of the home - is finally here. And to celebrate, a big party will be hosted this Saturday 25 March 2023 in the hours before the home goes under the hammer.<img alt="shutterstock_126783563" class="richtext-image full-width" height="532" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/shutterstock_126783563.width-800.jpg" width="800">From 10am, the site will be home to a jumping castle, face painting and the Zango coffee van, with celebrities like Dulux Dog and MIX106’s Renee Bogatko and Cam Sullings roaming through the crowd. Sausage sangas will be courtesy of the Ozharvest sausage sizzle.The main event starts at 1pm, with <a href="/agents/sch-sandra-masters/">Sandra Masters</a> of LJ Hooker Kippax calling for bids for the stunning property.Strathnairn Charity House is an initiative of Ginninderry and Master Builders ACT. Proceeds of the sale of the home will be distributed to charity partners Hands Across Canberra, Canberra City Care, Pegasus Riding for the Disabled and Karinya House.<img alt="artworks-0OqWD4QggUvAWu1k-DflvOg-t500x500" class="richtext-image full-width" height="500" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/artworks-0OqWD4QggUvAWu1k-DflvOg-t500x500.width-800.jpg" width="500">For Kane Constructions General Manager Jo Farrell, who’s spent two years managing the build of the home, on a volunteer basis, Saturday’s event will feel like “handing over a baby”.“I’m not going to lie: it’s incredibly nerve wracking,” Jo says.“It’s been a two-year journey – we’ve had some delays, worked through the build and watched the market rise and drop during that period.“It’s been such a personal journey for everyone involved - including me - and I just want to see that money hit our charities’ pockets.“It’s out of my hands now, but I have so much confidence in our sales and marketing team to get us a great result.”<img alt="JO_F_33_WEB" class="richtext-image full-width" height="697" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/JO_F_33_WEB.width-800.png" width="800">Jo says the duration of the build over 24 months gave the design and construction teams the chance to get &quot;every detail right&quot;, from premium Australian wool carpets to solid timber doors between rooms and 13mm Gyprock walls (the standard is 10mm).The result is a home “I would dearly love to live in myself”, Jo says, and she’s hoping the new buyers will love coming home every day to a property made with incredible thought and care.<img alt="Strathnairn Charity House_101" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/Strathnairn_Charity_House_101.width-800.jpg" width="800">Hundreds of Canberrans have streamed through Strathnairn Charity House since the home was declared open for inspection in early March. The Zango Dream Team of five female real estate agents have fielded hundreds of enquiries and will be on site to work with registered bidders on Saturday.<h2 data-block-key="2u1d8">Auction event details: Strathnairn Charity House</h2>Date: Saturday 25 March 202310am: Site opens, Cam and Renee’s Mix 106.3 Real Estate Show live broadcast10am-1pm: Live music, Zango coffee van, the Gecko Gang, jumping castle, OzHelp sausage sizzle, Dulux Dog1pm: Auction of <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/41-rachel-makinson-street-strathnairn-act-2615-76240/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">41 Rachel Makinson Street, Strathnairn</a><h2 data-block-key="99kc9">Open for inspection</h2>Strathnairn Charity House is open for inspection on Thursday 23 March 2023, 5.30pm-6pm, and on Saturday 25 March 2023 prior to auction from 10am.
