Immaculate, versatile and beautifully maintained home in the heights of Watson!
Dual entry ways set the scene for a home that allows different configurations to grow, change and live under the one roof. Multi-dimensional, brimming with surprises, this impressive home invites flexibility, easily accommodating multi-use, privacy, and connection.
A sweeping social arena combines sleeping, bathing, cooking, and living in one footprint and can be utilised as a separate apartment or seamlessly incorporated to create an expansive four-bedroom family home. The self-contained possibilities suggest inter-generational living, teen retreat, or second income, making the home adaptable to the ever-changing shape of modern family life.
Hearn Street is a sleepy short cul-de-sac that rises towards the Watson Woodlands. The home is ideally placed at the apex, backing directly onto the reserve. The brick veneer form is sited to capture the northern ingress to the rear and is softened by swells of lime green foliage. A paved driveway ushers to a gated double carport and beyond to the three-car garage.
A sheltered porch welcomes to a front door in forest green with luminous sidelight, opening to a sweet foyer with a sunny combined kitchen and dining to the right. Finished in crisp white with soothing ocean and sage green accents, the charming kitchen features banks of storage including open shelves for curated display. There is a large window above the sink, welcoming northern sunshine, and a lovely open sociability with the dining space. An adjacent laundry provides direct access to the lush private gardens that extend to the Woodlands beyond.
Warm tones imbue the rest of the home, as a wide hallway ushers to a variety of spaces that unfold with surprising generosity. To the left an expansive living area houses a neat kitchenette in one corner and flows to a queen bedroom with a wall of built-in-robes. There is also a bathroom finished in soothing tones of sky blue and a large laundry. A side entrance is so discreet that you wouldn't know it was there, and this area of the home opens directly via another door, to intimate hidden gardens.
The northern part of the home houses another three bedrooms and a second living area that drifts to a sunroom. The living area has a real warmth with features that include a stone wall, Mediterranean arched wall niche and pops of bright stained glass in hues of red and blue. The master bedroom has a walk-in-robe and a lovely drift to the deck, which steps down to a sheltered alfresco arena.
There is a large family bathroom with oodles of vintage flair, think warm timber ceilings and feature tiling embellished with delicate florals. A skylight draws in a blessing of sunlight and there is a relaxing spa bath.
Outdoors is a delight with the shady pergola to one side, providing the perfect place for long summer lunches as the kids play on the soft swell of lawn. Magnolias, Lilacs and Oleanders put on seasonal colourful shows and dedicated vegetable gardens provide a kitchen bounty. Fully established and easy-care, the gardens are irrigated via a large holding of rainwater, while a gate allows you to step straight into the peaceful expanses of the Watson Woodlands.
Watson is a vibrant, inner-north suburb with great community vibes, fabulous local shops, the Farmers markets, plenty of playgrounds and parks and a surrounding of natural reserves. Enjoy great coffee, fabulous pizza at The Knox, or dine out at the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. The home is close the revitalised Dickson shopping centre, host to an array of international cuisines and you are within an easy drive of the Braddon precinct, ANU and the CBD. You are convenient to a mix of private and public schools and transport, including the light rail, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
