There’s a rainforest type of feel as soon as you enter with so much greenery and lushness around the home.”According to Ryan, the property is so much more than a four-bedroom, three-bathroom home.“When you’ve been in a home for as long as these people have, you’ve got that warmth and comfort of a family home.”<img alt="36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817-image-0-20220516000216990874-thumbnail-1920x1920-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817-.width-800_qCnaSxv.jpg" width="800">The home is designed with versatility in mind, featuring a combination of modern and classic interiors, with an iconic spiral staircase, bedrooms located on one half of the house, and a large living room on the other.“As soon as you walk in, you have a nice, large, open living and family area, and around the corner, there’s a lovely dining area with a balcony where you can take in those sensational views, and it’s perfect for outdoor dining or entertaining,&quot; Ryan says.“The modern designed kitchen also takes advantage of those views.”<img alt="36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817-image-0-20220516000214557227-thumbnail-1920x1920-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817-.width-800_FNdLr84.jpg" width="800">There are four spacious bedrooms in the living quarters, featuring wooden flooring and room for all bed sizes and furniture.The bathrooms are beautifully renovated to include a large shower, a low bathtub (perfect for kids) and plenty of storage.“I think the most important update the owners did throughout the home was double glazing to make it as energy-efficient as possible,&quot; Ryan says.“It’s not often that you see homes of this age or in established suburbs like this that have had all of that work done already. It’s usually left for a new buyer to do it all and it often gets neglected.”<img alt="36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817-image-0-20220516000221325256-thumbnail-1920x1920-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817-.width-800_w7SxQSH.jpg" width="800">Downstairs is the perfect set-up for a kid’s playroom, creative space or a second living space.“I think its versatility is probably the most important feature because it can be used for whatever anyone wants,” Ryan says.The area currently has a pool room, study and fireplace, making it perfect for those cold Canberra nights to snuggle up and watch a movie or relax and unwind with the family.As you walk outside, the lush greenery in the backyard leads to a privately tucked-away outdoor spa.<img alt="36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817-image-0-20220516000222427306-thumbnail-1920x1920-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817-.width-800_zNN6jCE.jpg" width="800">“It’s almost like a layered outdoor area, you’ve got the rear covered area that’s surrounded by established greenery so it makes you feel like you&#x27;re walking through nature, and you’ve got that large spa that&#x27;s perfect on a cold winter’s day,&quot; Ryan says.The exterior features lime trees, a big veggie patch and a courtyard, made for outdoor entertaining among the overhanging Japanese maples and fragrant daphnes.The Evatt home comes with a double lock-up garage, reverse-cycle air conditioning, solar panels and ducted gas heating.<img alt="36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817-image-0-20220516000219750674-thumbnail-1920x1920-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817-.width-800_nMaWSk9.jpg" width="800">Ryan says it&#x27;s the little things that stand out most in the home, like the two working wood fireplaces and how you can entertain friends and family and have enough space for extended family and guests.To top it off, there’s the location – only minutes from shopping centres and schools.“You’re a very short drive from the Belconnen Town Centre, so there’s just so much convenience at your fingertips and plenty of fantastic Uber Eats options!”<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/36-fitzhardinge-crescent-evatt-act-2617-57817/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>To arrange an inspection, contact Ryan Hedley on 0458 440 375 or Stephanie Lang on 0415 522 087.Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/a-classic-family-home-that-exudes-character-with-endless-potential-and-possibilities/557245" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">The RiotAct</a>.
