<a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/lj-hooker-weston-creek/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">LJ Hooker Woden</a> real estate agent <a href="/agents/jane-kusetic/">Jane Macken</a> says the home was built with multi-generational living in mind.“On the outside, it’s got a cottage look, but the minute you step inside you’ll see it’s a large home that’s immaculately presented,” Jane says.“Once the doors are open, there’s a beautiful open-plan living area, double timber doors that lead to the front deck and modern tones throughout, which make it feel very welcoming.“It’s also fully renovated, extremely modern, and has a segregated second living space which makes it perfect for families who need that extra bit of room.”<img alt="3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742-image-0-20230119034651845691-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="565" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742-image-0-.width-800_sXKD698.jpg" width="800">According to Jane, the home’s expansive entertaining, dining and living area takes centre stage.“There’s also double-glazed windows, freshly painted walls, new skirting boards and architraves, timber flooring and carpet,&quot; she says.“The second living area/family room sits atop a split level too, which offers additional separation where you can see your children play while cooking in the kitchen or sitting outside.”At the heart of the home, the kitchen features custom cabinetry, stone benchtops and tiling.<img alt="3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742-image-0-20230119034650693700-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="565" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742-image-0-.width-800_JCWgN02.jpg" width="800">The kitchen also has a butler’s pantry with lots of storage space and a 900mm induction cooktop.“It has a beautiful stone island benchtop in the centre that’s very sleek,” Jane says.“This space also anchors all the living and entertaining areas, so you can see to the living area, you can see to the segregated living up the stairs, and you can also see out to the rear patio, meaning you can cook and entertaining at the same time.”<img alt="3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742-image-0-20230119034652175067-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="565" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742-image-0-.width-800_gVfEDin.jpg" width="800">The home&#x27;s unique floorplan has four bedrooms, including two master bedrooms and two big rooms with built-in robes, perfect for kids, teens or adults.“It’s one of those multi-generational homes that’s laid out to cater to younger families, but also to those that might have visitors or elderly family members and want to have additional room,&quot; Jane says.“There’s a master suite downstairs, which would be perfect for guests, and you have the other master suite upstairs.&quot;The bathrooms have been stunningly renovated, too.“The main bathroom has a separate toilet and conceals the laundry as well, so it makes the space very functional,” Jane says.“The ensuite is new, has its own shower, toilet and vanity, and was only built about three months ago.”<img alt="3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742-image-0-20230119034653166156-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="565" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742-image-0-.width-800_N1nzr7a.jpg" width="800">The alfresco area is a stand-out for buyers as it’s perfect for entertaining, Jane says.Some of its key features include beautifully landscaped and easy-care gardens, an outdoor heated spa pool, a newly paved outdoor balcony and an oversized double garage.<img alt="3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742-image-0-20230119034654573702-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="565" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742-image-0-.width-800.jpg" width="800">“The location is amazing – it only takes minutes to get anywhere,” Jane says.“It’s about a two-minute walk to the local shops and there are two primary schools nearby.“What appeals most about it is its aspect of multi-generational living and space for visitors. Since it’s open plan, it’s ready to move into, and there’s no need to spend money on a renovation as it’s ready to go.”The home also features a new ducted split system for heating and cooling.3 Parker Street, Curtin, will be auctioned at 6pm on Thursday 16 February 2023.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/3-parker-street-curtin-act-2605-73742/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/step-inside-this-cottage-like-contemporary-curtin-home-surrounded-by-beautifully-landscaped-gardens/631748" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The RiotACT.</a>

News

As <a href="/agents/dimi-romero/">Dimi Romero</a> walked potential buyers through a recent listing in Curtin, she did her best to maintain a poker face.The truth was <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/31-macalister-crescent-curtin-act-2605-62750/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">the four-bedroom house on MacAlister Crescent</a> was filled with special memories for the <a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/marq/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Marq Property</a> real estate agent: it had belonged to her grandparents Eric and Isabell Gardiner. The Gardiners moved into the brand new home in 1964 and raised six children there. The house was for sale following Isabelle’s passing (Eric had sadly died in the 1990s).<img alt="31-macalister-crescent-curtin-act-2605-62750-image-0-20220926084632608211-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/31-macalister-crescent-curtin-act-2605-62750-i.width-800_nQFc3Pk.jpg" width="800">“It was a case where every room held a memory for me,” Dimi says.“I remember when I was little and thinking that the house was so big. It&#x27;s only 117 sqm! But it had four bedrooms and for some reason I thought it was this big mansion.“Even the backyard had memories, where we’d had so many Christmases, playing pool and darts under the pergola.”<img alt="31-macalister-crescent-curtin-act-2605-62750-image-0-20220926084633462251-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/31-macalister-crescent-curtin-act-2605-62750-i.width-800_ZpDekln.jpg" width="800">Only the vendors who were serious about buying the home knew how special it was to its sales agent.“There was one couple in particular who were like, ‘wow, you know every detail of this home’ and I said, well it actually belonged to my grandparents, I know it very well.”Dimi had even lived at the south Canberra home for a few months as a child.“Which was actually quite wonderful because my grandma would leave lollies on my pillow at night and I got all of her attention. She’d take me to do figure skating after school. It was a special time.”<img alt="31-macalister-crescent-curtin-act-2605-62750-image-0-20220926084633727267-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/31-macalister-crescent-curtin-act-2605-62750-i.width-800_XpQTtkt.jpg" width="800">Dimi also remembers walking along the lane to the side of the house with her entire family, uncles and aunts included, heading toward a new restaurant named Belluci’s at the rear of the house. The Gardiner family would celebrate special occasions like new jobs, birthdays and anniversaries at the iconic Italian eatery. (The old Belluci’s is today home to the Daana Indian Restaurant.)<img alt="31-macalister-crescent-curtin-act-2605-62750-image-0-20220926084632101263-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/31-macalister-crescent-curtin-act-2605-62750-i.width-800_rSyDLc8.jpg" width="800">Dimi sold the cherished family home for $1,017,500. Zango was the only local property portal she used in the marketing of the MacAlister Crescent property.“Ever since Zango launched in 2020, Justin [Taylor] and I have listed primarily on Zango,” Dimi says.“For me, it&#x27;s a no-brainer. We&#x27;ve listed multiple properties on Zango, received multiple offers, had big numbers through open homes and achieved outstanding prices for clients.“Buyers are really savvy and they’re on Zango.“It&#x27;s just another success story about listing locally on Zango-only and how powerful the marketing is.”<a href="https://zango.com.au/search-property/real-estate-agents/dimi-romero/?listing_type=sale&amp;status=current" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View Dimi&#x27;s current listings.</a>

Built in 1964, the home has since been reconfigured to better take advantage of its position and surroundings.With fencing lining the block and large windows throughout the home, a sense of space and privacy encompasses this four-bedroom, two-bathroom home.<a href="/agents/luton-properties/">Luton Properties</a> real estate agent <a href="/agents/kate-yates/">Kate Yates</a> describes the home as &quot;quirky and different&quot;.<img alt="9-allan-place-curtin-act-2605-62404-image-0-20220829003132937731-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/9-allan-place-curtin-act-2605-62404-image-0-20.width-800_B1dIbU7.jpg" width="800">&quot;It’s got expansive windows that extend to the roofline in some cases, but it’s also got this lovely warm feeling about it,” Kate says.Evidence of its quirkiness lies in the backyard: that’s where you’ll find the yurt.The yurt is a small circular room detached from the house that can be used in endless ways: from storage to a lounge room or even a bedroom.“The yurt was built in the 1990s, and it adds value and functionality to the home,&quot; Kate says.&quot;It can easily be used as a fourth bedroom like it is now, another living space or even a teen’s retreat.&quot;<img alt="9-allan-place-curtin-act-2605-62404-image-0-20220829003136215909-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/9-allan-place-curtin-act-2605-62404-image-0-20.width-800_WoW1exN.jpg" width="800">As you make your way into the home, you pass through a fully fenced entranceway, complete with an abundance of greenery.The home features two spacious and separate light-filled living areas, each of which is architecturally distinct. You’ll also find a study area, two private courtyards, an outside sunroom with an integrated deck, and a landscaped garden.The open-plan lounge and dining area includes a fireplace, raked ceilings and skylights. It flows naturally to the private and lush front courtyard on one side, and the north-facing entertainer’s deck with pergola on the other.<img alt="9-allan-place-curtin-act-2605-62404-image-0-20220829003134323794-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/9-allan-place-curtin-act-2605-62404-image-0-20.width-800_rSZWknl.jpg" width="800">The north-facing family room features a wood-burning stove, stunning curved walls, and windows that create a generous sense of warmth, space and cascading light.The kitchen overlooks the backyard and the deck has been updated with new stainless-steel appliances, a breakfast bar, new bench tops and a stylish tiled backsplash.The master suite includes built-in wardrobes and French doors that open to a private deck and courtyard.
