“There’s not really been anything like it in Latham,” says <a href="https://zango.com.au/agencies/luton-gungahlin/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Luton Properties</a>’ <a href="/agents/nick-paine/">Nick Paine</a>.When approaching the property front, you’ll notice a landscape in which few expenses were spared. Leading to the two-car garage is a driveway separated from two front lawns by high-quality stone masonry with embedded feature lighting.The house’s front wall also has a vibrant but low-maintenance garden bed.<img alt="92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608-image-0-20231115024643340976-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608-im.width-800.jpg" width="800">One of the defining characteristics of this home is its ability to bring a practical and family-oriented design to life using luxurious and high-quality interiors.Nowhere is this more evident than in the kitchen, where a window above the backsplash allows you to keep an eye on the kids in the pool while preparing meals in a Michelin-grade kitchen with an island bench and walk-in pantry.<img alt="92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608-image-0-20231115024643915790-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608-im.width-800_hRN6ORT.jpg" width="800">Inspired by the same philosophy, the downstairs living room balances luxury and practicality. A central feature wall with black wooden panelling and a fireplace is joined to the wall by sleek in-built cabinetry with LED lighting below.These features make for a space that will take family movie night to a whole new level without compromising the home’s chic and luxurious aesthetic.The kitchen and living areas are littered with a generous variety of discrete push-to-open storage options hidden in various locations around the space.<img alt="92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608-image-0-20231115024644405402-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608-im.width-800_BvggHV2.jpg" width="800">This includes what Nick describes as “a bonus hidden compartment in the living area that can be used to hide the clutter of remotes or be kitted out to provide a secret stash for an evening tipple”.“You literally just press on the painting, and it opens up this compartment for glasses and bottles of gin.”Take a walk upstairs, and you’ll quickly realise you’re in kid territory. A large rumpus room with north-facing floor-to-ceiling windows is full of natural light. It also features three sliding door cupboards with enough space to hold even the largest collection of toys.Venture a little further and you’ll find a set of three generous bedrooms, each of which have plenty of storage and large windows of their own.Back downstairs, you’ll find another three bedrooms, including one master that was created by merging what was once two separate bedrooms. The smaller was used to create an ensuite that connects to a massive walk-in wardrobe with symmetrical two-person cabinetry.In a final display of opulence, the wardrobe also has a sliding glass door leading to a separate private deck that can be accessed from the kitchen.<img alt="92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608-image-0-20231115024646365480-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608-im.width-800_BK4gJC3.jpg" width="800">The most impressive feature of this property is the backyard, which offers three distinct spaces that allow the owners to entertain and relax outdoors all year round.The combined meals and family space flows seamlessly outside into a spacious outdoor alfresco. Complete with an outdoor fireplace and stone-top kitchenette with an in-built fridge and barbecue, the space has every bell and whistle imaginable.<img alt="92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608-image-0-20231115024643668265-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608-im.width-800_B1KGkjr.jpg" width="800">As you head to the back of the alfresco, a varnished Merbau staircase will take you up to a large backyard lawn overlooking a fenced-off heated pool with direct access to a bathroom and shower.The home is situated on the leafy Macrossan Crescent, just across the road from Latham Primary School oval. It’s also a short 6-minute drive from Belconnen.“One of the things that the owner said to us is that there’s so many families that live in Latham, it’s really community orientated. It’s super unpretentious and the area is just full of families keeping an eye out for each other,” says Nick.92 Macrossan Crescent Latham goes to auction 1pm on Saturday 9 December 2023.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/92-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-90608/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>Article originally written and published by <a href="https://the-riotact.com/luxurious-six-bedroom-home-in-latham-has-something-for-everyone-in-the-family/722362" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">the RiotACT</a>

A showcase of opulence and community spirit in Latham

Remember the homes on Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie and The Golden Girls? The houses in those sitcoms literally played their own character, with dream decor from the 60s, 70s and 80s.Whether you’re looking to move back into a home just like the one you lived in growing up or you&#x27;re looking to renovate, these classic Canberra kitchens and bathrooms are packed with character and nostalgia.<h3 data-block-key="6cj59"><a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/1-mcleod-place-kambah-act-2902-66310/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">1 McLeod Place, Kambah</a></h3><img alt="1-mcleod-place-kambah-act-2902-66310-image-0-20220926211627878055-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/1-mcleod-place-kambah-act-2902-66310-image-0-2.width-800.jpg" width="800">This fully-functioning kitchen is just bursting with sunshine. Its lemon and aqua cabinetry - with glossy wood veneer benchtops - makes us want to pop on an apron and bake some fresh scones. The two sinks come with double dish draining capabilities, perfect for the large family. <img alt="1-mcleod-place-kambah-act-2902-66310-image-0-20220926211629695757-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/1-mcleod-place-kambah-act-2902-66310-image-0-2.width-800_oVGNnxi.jpg" width="800">Meanwhile, the pink ensuite and powder room as the other end of the home are as cute as can be. The powder room features its own overhead heater and embellished pink tiles. Barbie would be so jealous.<img alt="1-mcleod-place-kambah-act-2902-66310-image-0-20220926211630512664-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/1-mcleod-place-kambah-act-2902-66310-image-0-2.width-800_OkOMdP7.jpg" width="800">The main bathroom boasts cool sea-inspired blues. A vintage freestanding vanity with glossy veneer top presents perfectly against the tiles and has the original soap dish and tapware. <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/1-mcleod-place-kambah-act-2902-66310/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing for 1 McLeod Place, Kambah.</a><h3 data-block-key="aitfh"><a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/1-joske-place-latham-act-2615-66585/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">1 Joske Place, Latham</a></h3><img alt="1-joske-place-latham-act-2615-66585-image-0-20220926001650847035-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/1-joske-place-latham-act-2615-66585-image-0-20.width-800.jpg" width="800">This vintage kitchen has more of a 1980s beige and brown vibe. Decorative tiles complete the splashback and the frilly fruit themed curtains are giving us strong Nonna energy. <img alt="1-joske-place-latham-act-2615-66585-image-0-20220926001652068879-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/1-joske-place-latham-act-2615-66585-image-0-20.width-800_9tATPvZ.jpg" width="800">The home&#x27;s bathroom brings calming muted blue tones and we love the retro blue pillar taps on the bath. The shower features privacy screens and the accent floral tiles are super retro. <a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/1-joske-place-latham-act-2615-66585/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing for 1 Joske Place, Latham.</a><h3 data-block-key="68r96"><a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/13-gundara-street-aranda-act-2614-66521/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">13 Gundara Street, Aranda</a></h3><img alt="13-gundara-street-aranda-act-2614-66521-image-0-20220927030217728854-thumbnail-1920x1920-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="533" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/13-gundara-street-aranda-act-2614-66521-image-.width-800.jpg" width="800">This home&#x27;s Brady Brunch aesthetic centres on a chocolate brown palette from the late 1970s.

News

Another weekend, and more suburb sales records continue to tumble around Canberra, as the local market remains red hot.In Ainslie, <a href="/sale/25-corroboree-park-ainslie-act-2602-48812/">25 Corroboree Park</a> sold for $2,775,000, beating the previous suburb record by $335,000.The five bedroom home in the heritage listed Corroboree Park precinct is an original 1927 weatherboard worker&#x27;s cottage, which has been fully renovated inside and out, whilst still preserving the old-world charm.Selling agent <a href="/agents/stephen-bunday/">Stephen Bunday</a> from <a href="/agencies/lj-hooker-dickson/">LJ Hooker Dickson</a> says the vendors received an offer of $2,750,000 by the very first people to inspect the property at the start of the campaign, which would have been an Ainslie record in itself, but chose to hold off until auction on Saturday November 13.The wins didn’t stop there either with the vendors saving thousands of dollars in advertising costs by choosing to locally market the property exclusively on Zango on their way to achieving Canberra’s Inner-North suburb record.<img alt="25 Corroboree Park 2.png" class="richtext-image full-width" height="493" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/25_Corroboree_Park_2.width-800.png" width="800">“Property in Corroboree Park is tightly held and this one has a lovely view over to the park and tennis courts with Mount Ainslie in the background. Buyers understand that this will never be built out,” says Stephen.“They also appreciate that it’s in a heritage precinct and that the character and charm of the streetscape will be preserved. The home has also been beautifully renovated and extended and the gardens are beautiful.”A little further north-west, <a href="/sale/2-62-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-49300/">2/62 Macrossan Crescent</a> set a new price record in Latham.Sold by agent <a href="/agents/ajay-kumar/">Ajay Kumar</a> from <a href="/agencies/town-residential/">Town Residential</a>, the newly-built home has four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and four car garage, and features a versatile floorplan.<img alt="2-62-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-49300-image-0-20211112010200403786-thumbnail-1920x1920-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="532" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/2-62-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-49300-.width-800.jpg" width="800">The property sold ahead of auction for $1,160,000 on Friday November 12. The sale came just one week after the previous Latham record was broken, with a sale for $978,000.“We accepted a pre-auction offer off the back of only two open homes which had 19 groups,” says Ajay.“I expect this to put Latham on the map for new buyers, and all the sellers looking to sell in Latham will benchmark their homes against these sales.”“The property was only live online for one week—a very quick marketing period. However I was very confident in the property. It is beautifully built and very well presented. I knew it would sell for a premium and it was an exceptional result in the end,” says Ajay.<img alt="2-62-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-49300-image-0-20211112010201552479-thumbnail-1920x1920-70.jpeg" class="richtext-image full-width" height="532" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/2-62-macrossan-crescent-latham-act-2615-49300-.width-800_aSiEej3.jpg" width="800">Demand remains strong in Latham, with Ajay also selling the adjacent property, 1/62 Macrossan Crescent, for $1,150,000, without going to market.“The market is still going strong and enquiries remain high, I don’t see it slowing down anytime soon,” says Ajay.
