Thoughtful touches, attention to detail combine with a generous use of warm timber and minimalist palette to create a serene, mindful oasis packed with sustainable features.

This joyful and impeccably renovated, seperate title, two-bedroom home is located within the vibrant Belconnen precinct, moments from a bevy of restaurants and shopping experiences and the walking trails of Lake Ginninderra. Grand vistas to both east and west, frame views of magical gardens, sweeping sky and open reserve beyond.

A private driveway ushers to carport sporting loads of built-in-storage gifting plenty of off-street parking. A pretty front garden is set with productive vegetable beds and plenty of fruit trees, including pomegranate, apricot, pear, peach, and fig. This private oasis is deeply quiet, buffeted by circling reserve and position deep within a quiet cul-de-sac.

An open and airy living, kitchen and dining arena draws in light from the dual solar orientation gifting a lovely balance, with a magical end-to-end framing of leafy vistas. The living area overlooks a colourful maple, while sliding doors can be flung open allowing an easy merge form dining to sequestered rear garden, flowing to parkland.

The recent exacting renovation has resulted in a bevy of practical and environmentally conscious features - tri-colour downlights, German engineered double glazing, R6 ceiling insulation, Nobo panel heaters and ingenious and generous attic storage. The continuous thread of white on white combined with rich timber creates a paired back aesthetic, while the calming natural materiality nods to the bush surrounds. Painted brick feature walls harmonise with spotted gum flooring; the central galley kitchen providing a pop of French blue, mimicking the sky.

Blackbutt bench tops arrest and the subtle floral pattern of the Australian made ceramic splashback, throws in just a touch of romantic whimsy. Shaker style cabinetry provides plenty of storage and combines beautifully with state-of-the-art Smeg and Bosch appliances. A large island provides ample bench space combined with breakfast bar for perfect sociality while showing off your culinary skills.

The master bedroom with eco carpet in deep grey, blue is warm and inviting, flooded with soft light, and championing soft garden vistas. The walk-in-robe takes care of seamless storage with plenty of generous shelving.

Hardwood batons accentuate a deep light well with rain sensor skylight, drawing in sunshine, illuminating the generous family bathroom. A bespoke ironbark vanity with under shelving spans the length of the room, while a walk-in-rain shower, handmade concrete basin completes the luxury bespoke touches, so consistent throughout the home.

Beyond, the second bedroom or ideal home office looks onto the tree ferns and planted raised beds of the rear courtyard. Staged with fire-pit, natural gravel, and bush rock; with beautiful native plantings that spill over, into the communal paddocks and walking paths beyond the garden gate.
