The time has come for the current owner to reluctantly move from the much-loved family home and offer the new owners an opportunity to make it their own.
Discreetly hidden behind a mature hedge this largely original home offers a versatile floor plan that includes three separate living areas, three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a laundry, and an open plan kitchen. There is also a fantastic basement hobby room and a separate double lock up garage with workshop.
57 MacLaurin Crescent is a perfect home for entertaining. At the front of the home is a sun-filled lounge room with a beautiful garden vista and double doors leading to a large dining room or sunroom which has direct access to the back porch. Adjacent to the dining room is the spacious kitchen which has a breakfast bar separating it from the family room which flows onto a covered terrace and the private back garden. Cleverly positioned at the rear of the home is a laundry which has a second bathroom at one end and a door to the back garden for convenience.
The bedroom wing is at the front of the home and it includes three bedrooms – two with built in robes. These rooms are all serviced by the family bathroom and separate toilet.
Other features include a large internal storeroom, linen cupboard, parquetry floors, reverse cycle ducted heating and cooling, a security system, external window awnings, and a garden shed.
Located close to parkland, the very popular Chifley shops and across the road from the local pre-school. An easy walk to Woden and Phillip and a short drive to Canberra City, Tuggeranong and the Parliamentary triangle.
