Available for the first time, this contemporary residence of 342m2 presents a once in a lifetime opportunity for families seeking a lifestyle with rural benefits and city conveniences. Sited on an elevated 2785m2 parcel of land and backing onto reserve, this wonderful home is surrounded by established and attractive gardens and features stunning views over the treetops to the Arboretum, Black Mountain and Parliament House.

Taking full advantage of the northerly aspect, the thoughtful design allows the master bedroom, open-plan family and dining area and the lounge room to be bathed in natural light year-round, and the high ceilings and expansive glass create a wonderful feeling of space in these rooms and take in the spectacular views.

The family-sized kitchen is modern and practical, with a huge island bench with breakfast bar, good storage space and an integrated fridge and freezer, and it seamlessly connects with the dining area and the entertaining terrace. The open-plan family and dining area is the heart of the home and the slow combustion fireplace gives it a welcoming ambience, whilst the lounge room and rumpus room offer separate spaces for the family to spread out.

The bedroom accommodation will suit families of all ages with a guest bedroom/nursery and ensuite located towards the front of the home along with the spacious master retreat, palatial ensuite and walk-in wardrobe which also has access to a sunny deck area. The three other bedrooms are located at the other end of the home all with access to the large main bathroom and powder room.

Stepping outside to the expansive backyard, you almost forget you are in the middle of Canberra. The huge yard is nothing short of amazing with abundant grassed space for kids and four legged friends to run around, and there are little areas around the block that are like hidden secrets, with a large chicken coop, firepit area and garden storage all tucked away. A key highlight of this home is the full size tennis court that is sure to be a massive hit with the whole family and no doubt many friends as well, and the permanent basketball ring will provide endless hours of entertainment after the tennis match is over.

The position promises a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle yet the location offers total convenience - the very best of both worlds. One of a kind and not to be missed!
