Positioned in one of Red Hill’s most elevated, dress circle locations, and enjoying a handsome street presence, is this exceptional family residence. The generously proportioned home has been transformed by an impressive major renovation – from the lush green lawns at the front to the private rear garden, and everything in-between.
While maintaining the original features of textured full brick walls, high ceilings and ornate cornice, the new fuses seamlessly with the old to create a sense of understated elegance, sophistication and homeliness.
The spacious formal sitting room features an open fireplace and vast amounts of picture windows, allowing for a pleasant transfer of natural light and a beautiful outlook to the front garden, streetscape and the distant coastal ranges.
The well-appointed, gourmet kitchen boasts stone and stainless steel bench tops and European appliances, and overlooks the contemporary, open-plan living and dining space.
Double glazed stacking doors flow onto an expansive covered alfresco area, featuring an outdoor kitchen with a built-in barbeque and fridge – perfect for entertaining all year round.
The home comprises of four bedrooms, with the palatial master boasting an elegant, fully tiled ensuite bathroom and plantation shutters. In addition, there is an adjoining study/reading room leading onto a further private deck, providing a perfect place to relax.
Additional extras include spotted gum timber floors throughout, ducted heating and cooling, LED lighting and a double lock up garage with a gardener’s toilet. The gardens are fully landscaped with an automated irrigation system to the back yard.
A short stroll to the new Red Hill supermarket, Canberra’s top schools, transport and the Red Hill nature reserve, this home is ideally located for family living.
