Charismatic is the word that first comes to mind on walking through the front door of this highly appealing home in the cul-de-sac at the end of Bindaga Street.

There's a smattering of beautiful late-mid-century-modern features here, with a split-level and north east tiled entrance that's demarcated by three timber steps leading up to the open-plan family and living room.

The crowning glory is a full-length raked ceiling with exposed beams bringing volume and understated beauty to the space.

Floor-to-ceiling windows that run the length of both the entrance/sunroom and the family room also hark back to the mid-century aesthetic of bringing nature into the home with outdoor views.

It's a theme that continues into the largely-original kitchen, where three large windows look out to the enormous backyard through a pergola trellised with a grapevine.

A sensible design plan means that all five bedrooms, or four bedrooms plus study are tucked away in a separate wing. Bedrooms two and four offer character with exposed ceiling beams and built-in desks perfect for homework time. The spacious master is complemented with built in robes, an ensuite and offers views out over the decked front terrace.

The home's street position means that it's not only one of the largest blocks in Aranda and on Bindaga, but the front deck terrace, sun room, family and living rooms capture the best of the north eastern orientation providing a lovely morning sunlight.

Completing the package of this delightful home are the two downstairs areas, which are fully equipped with power, a perfect "Man's Cave", gymnasium, storage area, wine cellar or convert into a perfect rumpus room.

In numerology, 66 inspires creativity. Number 66 Bindaga Street offers comfortable family living now, but has endless possibilities for you to add your own creative updates at a future time that suits you.
