Discreetly hidden behind a private manicured hedgerow is this very large contemporary architecturally-designed home of approx. 633m2 area nestled within a lush established mature holding of some 2,267m2 . Only an unhurried inspection will allow you to fully appreciate the artistry that has brought the spectacular garden into the light-filled house and to witness the close attention to those fine details that have taken a luxury residence and turned it into a fabulous and liveable family home delivering a first-class standard of living.

Formal & Informal living on a grand scale with huge living, dining and family rooms with the most gorgeous garden aspect surround the large Luxe stone kitchen with luxury appliances and abundant storage options.

Full-height picture windows capture dappled autumn light and provide tranquil verdant backdrops to all rooms. Delicate Japanese maples, azaleas, cycads, winding pebble-framed stepping stone pathways and water basins combine to create multiple layers interspersed with three terraces for outdoor entertaining.

The segregated master suite offers an expansive light and bright ensuite and enormous walk-through wardrobe and direct access to the gleaming indoor heated lap pool.

Three bedrooms in the opposite ground-floor wing include a second ensuite bedroom and one with concealed home office cabinetry, making it a true dual-purpose space. Upstairs, an enormous rumpus room doubles as a teen retreat guest/study with its own ensuite and elevated outdoor terrace providing plenty of indoor and outdoor relaxation space

A charming self-contained studio within the gardens and separate to the main residence is ideal for a home office, teenage retreat, guest accommodation or for an Au Pair.

Set on a large 2,267m2 holding close to the parliamentary triangle, Finest ACT schools and the Manuka village, this stylish family residence seamlessly blends comfort, light and tranquillity just minutes from Canberra's CBD.
