So Much More Than A 2 Bedroom Home!

There are some homes you will find yourself walking or driving past that make you turn your head. Make you turn your head and wonder, wonder about just what might be inside. What is inside couldn't possibly match the beauty and intrigue of the outside, could it? Well fortunately today you have the opportunity to step past the intrigue and step inside one of the most remarkable residences Ainslie has to offer. Brought to you from the mind and architectural prowess of Geoff Lovie, this is a true marvel of Canberra architecture.

Rated a perfect 6-star energy rating is a home that has indeed had every corner carefully considered. From the galvanised steel and rosewood exterior to the polished concrete floors, the sleek nature of the home follows you from outside to in. Spread across two levels, this home ideally ensures comfort no matter the activity. The moment you enter, you walk past a sensationally serene private sitting room with its feature slow combustion fireplace that is hugged by bookshelves. A truly ideal setting for the home library, and the perfect retreat to ensure you look forward to rainy days. Picture rain glistening the gorgeous garden view, your imagination has taken you away immersed in your favourite book, a glass of red in hand and warmth of the fire on your cheek.

The meticulously designed open plan kitchen provides a sensational sense of space. You are never tucked away from the entertainment. The traditional hub of the home overlooks the open plan living and dining area that opens out to the scenic patio that is shaded in summer with its natural canopy. You can instantly picture yourself sitting with friends and family, surrounded by what feels like your own private sanctuary. The architecturally designed greenery is surrounding you, sunlight is drenching you, the barbeque is sizzling and only the sound of laughter, beer bottles opening and champagne popping to fill the air.

Up the beautiful blackbutt stairs, the upper level of the home, also floored with blackbutt, is the embodiment of expanse and space. Both bedrooms are expansive in nature, sit either side of what could be a second living area, work from home space or feature room, bringing joy and motivation. The second bedroom is slightly larger than the first and features built-in wardrobes. This room is made to feel even more open by the use of huge picture windows (the house is double glazed throughout, of course). The main bedroom of the home is positively drenched in light with its northern wall being made entirely of double glazed windows, with external shutters for privacy when the sun sets. The room is wonderfully accompanied by its expansive walk-in wardrobe. The upper level of the home is serviced by a single large feature bathroom in which the design and the mesh of colour will fill you with awe. In fact, the home is inspiring at every turn and quite frankly, it feels like you are living inside a work of art.

One of the most thoughtfully designed homes in Canberra is available to you today. Do not miss the opportunity and book your inspection with us today.
