16 Belah Street, O'Connor, ACT 2602

In 2013, a cozy O'Connor cottage began a family's dream journey into a life of luxury. Beginning the transformation in 2018, the homeowners demolished the cottage and re-built two meticulously designed family retreats. Constructed for multi-generational living, this luxurious family home offered a haven where grandparents and grandchildren could create lasting memories under the same roof.

The heart of this transformation lies in an immaculate, spacious two-story main residence and a welcoming single-level granny flat. The thoughtful layout between both dwellings allowed the grandparents to actively participate in their grandchildren's lives - celebrating milestones and everyday joys together, fostering strong family bonds.

The main residence, with four bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms, provides ample space for family activities and intimate moments, perfect for hosting gatherings with extended family and friends. Meanwhile, the adjacent granny flat ensures independence and closeness, offering two bedrooms and two bathrooms - perfect for extended family living, or as a future investment opportunity.

Designed to harness natural light, the home's north-facing windows illuminate the living spaces, creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. High-quality finishes and modern, high-end amenities and appliances throughout, including Daikin climate control and Crimsafe screens, underscore a commitment to ensuring year round comfort and security for the residents. The property boasts a blend of natural, low-maintenance outdoor spaces, ideal for family enjoyment and moments of serene solitude.

Situated close by to local amenities, including shops, schools, and parks, this property boasts a lifestyle of convenience, ease and leisure. This home is not just a structure, it's a living, breathing space where family life flourishes, designed to nurture the connection between generations. It stands ready to welcome a new family eager to add their chapters to its rich story of love, growth, and togetherness.
