You can have your primary school-aged children there and see them all the way through high school and beyond by having that segregation of living.“It’s going to cater to larger families who need a little separation and different areas to entertain from.”<img alt="14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322-image-0-20230112011649251352-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322.width-800_hDPjVCL.jpg" width="800">The dining quarters of the home features a contemporary kitchen with a design and colour scheme that has longevity in mind.“It’s nothing too outlandish with its décor and palette, but it remains an impressive hub to the home,” Alec says.“There&#x27;s also a copious amount of storage there as well as an induction cooktop, a dishwasher, breakfast island and massive walk-in butler’s pantry.“Joining the kitchen, there&#x27;s also a large family room and open area which spills out to the outdoor area and combines the indoor/outdoor living quarters.”<img alt="14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322-image-0-20230112011652015980-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322.width-800_3bK7c8q.jpg" width="800">The Wright home has four big bedrooms with built-in robes and an additional study.“The master has a huge walk-through robe and quite a large, dedicated spa ensuite which is tucked towards the back of the property, just to retain that idea of having space and privacy from the rest of the family,” Alec says.“In addition, the study area downstairs is also very versatile and can be converted to a fifth bedroom if required.“Each room has ample storage, as well as double-glazed windows and ducted gas heating and cooling.”<img alt="14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322-image-0-20230112011654259672-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322.width-800_2hEJG5D.jpg" width="800">The bathrooms are designed with neutral tones and high-quality fixtures and fittings.“They&#x27;re designed for practicality and simplicity, but also to look quite good with a functional layout,&quot; Alec says.“There’s lots of space and it’s done to a degree of precision which indicates that the idea of a renovation is way off into the future.”There’s also a huge laundry and laundry chute.<img alt="14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322-image-0-20230112011654569083-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322.width-800_lrnjCkx.jpg" width="800">Alec says the alfresco area is a highlight of the home.“The landscaping is simple and easy care,&quot; he says.&quot;The alfresco area also has quite a lot of yard space for kids and offers privacy, which is a drawcard for buyers.“I think what’s really nice about it is an under-roofline area. It’s not just your average pergola space. It has nice, high-set ceilings, there&#x27;s a barbecue area, it&#x27;s large, and again, it enjoys that northerly orientation - so it&#x27;s suitable for the winter sun, in particular.“It’s also great for entertaining as it’s got the glass sliding doors that connect the internal living spaces to the external living spaces.”<img alt="14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322-image-0-20230112011655918271-crop-c0-5__0-5-1600x750-70" class="richtext-image full-width" height="375" src="https://d2t3vhau9g43uy.cloudfront.net/media/images/14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322.width-800_TKrXrfP.jpg" width="800">Additional property features include a triple garage, an underground water tank, a solar hot water system and a fully fenced backyard.“This home has been well received from the market so far,” Alec says.“People are telling us that it is a really well thought-out and well-designed property which has such a spectacular outlook that only a handful of properties have in Wright.“It is also centrally located and close to all the amenities of the city and Woden.”14 Phillip Hodgins Street, Wright, will be auctioned at 5.30pm on Friday 3 February 2023.<a href="https://zango.com.au/sale/14-philip-hodgins-street-wright-act-2611-73322/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">View the full listing.</a>

Perfect? Families Agree

A majority of 50% live in an apartment, followed by 34% house dwellers. Households are 2.3 people on average, seems like Wright is the place for style
