4 Lovely Close, Dunlop, ACT 2615 - More Details
Offers Over $980,000
Purchased in May 2020, 4 Lovely Close became the family home the owners needed at exactly the right time. With a two-year-old and their second child due only weeks later, they were looking for somewhere that offered the space and flexibility for their family to grow.
Since then, the home has welcomed a third child and been the setting for countless birthdays, milestones and time spent together. The lounge became a favorite place for the kids to play, particularly when the warm winter sun filled the room, while the covered pergola area hosted family barbecues and gatherings through the warmer months. The owners will miss the warmth and simplicity of the home, along with watching their children play in the yard, ride their bikes around the close and build lasting friendships throughout the neighborhood.
THE HOME
Designed for a growing household, the home offers five bedrooms, two bathrooms, two separate living areas, a formal dining space and a lounge room. The multiple zones allow the family to spend time together while still providing room for children and adults to enjoy their own space.
The kitchen and adjoining family area form the central hub of the home, with the family room featuring built-in cabinetry, a study nook, hybrid oak flooring and Daikin split-system air conditioning. Updated in 2022, the kitchen includes a 900mm Fisher & Paykel dual fan-forced oven with a five-burner gas cooktop and a Smeg dishwasher featuring automatic door opening at the completion of each cycle.
All five bedrooms include ceiling fans with dimmable lighting, while carpet, fresh interior paint and feature walls to the children's bedrooms create comfortable private spaces. The separate rumpus can be closed away from the main living areas and captures the winter sun through large windows, making it equally suited to play, gaming or relaxed family time.
Outside, the covered pergola area features tiled flooring and extends the living space into the landscaped backyard. Further improvements include hybrid oak flooring, a renovated laundry and separate toilet, updated lighting and window furnishings, a replacement inverter for the existing solar system, a water tank and a double garage with internal access and access to the rear pergola area.
THE LOCATION
Positioned within a quiet Dunlop close, the home enjoys the neighbourhood setting that has worked so well for the owners and their children. Friendly neighbours, minimal passing traffic and nearby open spaces have created a comfortable environment for children to play outside, ride their bikes and spend time with friends.
Fraser Primary School, Charnwood Shops and local playgrounds are all close by, while Kippax Fair, Dunlop Grasslands Nature Reserve, Lake Ginninderra and Westfield Belconnen are within an easy drive. The location also provides straightforward access to surrounding West Belconnen suburbs and major roads connecting across Canberra.
