Offers over $2,150,000
This contemporary five bedroom family home on a large, leafy Garran block blends classic brick charm with modern architectural design. An award winning Canberra architect oversaw extensive renovations that revitalised the home while preserving its 1960s character.
The upgrades introduced expanded living, dining and kitchen spaces, a European laundry, and an impressive new upper level dedicated to the primary suite. This suite includes a generous bedroom, a large walk in wardrobe, a stylish bathroom with walk in shower, a reading nook, and sweeping views to Mount Taylor and the Brindabellas.
Renovated areas feature polished Tasmanian Oak flooring, adding warmth and durability. The four original ground floor bedrooms, all with built in wardrobes, have been refreshed with new paint and carpet. Comfort is further enhanced by ducted gas heating, reverse cycle air conditioning on both levels, double glazed windows and doors in key areas, ceiling fans, and external awnings on the western side.
Thoughtful siting by the home's first owner, a surveyor, maximises winter sunlight. A striking ceiling void now brings even more natural light into the new living spaces.
The kitchen includes a retro orange island bench, Miele appliances, and excellent pantry and storage options. Large sliding glass doors open to a long, private deck that flows down to a quiet patio.
The established gardens include mature trees, a vegetable patch, and a spacious, private backyard with room for play, entertaining, and pets. Two driveways provide ample parking, including space for a long boat or caravan. The garage features a new electronic roller door, and a large under house storeroom offers flexible use as a games room or pet enclosure.
The expansive 1,286 sq m block offers excellent potential for future enhancements, including extending the home or adding features such as a pool. Its RZ2 zoning also opens the door to development opportunities, including the possibility of subdividing the block.
The home sits within walking distance of - and in the Priority Enrolment Area for - Garran Primary School, one of the ACT's highest performing public schools. Garran shops, the Ochre Medical Centre, and bus routes to Civic and Woden are also nearby, with Canberra Hospital just three minutes away.
