Its distinctive design, thoughtful renovation and connection to the landscape give this home a character of its own.Designed and built by its first owner, T Seselja, in 1983, it is one of the earliest houses in Fadden. Rather than placing a conventional footprint on an irregular block, Seselja let the land guide the geometry. Two wings turn around the kitchen and family area, with bedrooms extending one way and the lounge and dining the other.Angled walls. Split levels. Raked ceilings. Boxed beams give the interiors definition, while the sheltered entry sits between the two wings. Each space has its own proportions and perspective, creating a home that rewards your attention as you move through it.Drawing on a background in creative strategy and a personal interest in art and design, the current owner has approached the renovation with a clear sense of purpose. Timber, marble and earthy colours were chosen to honour the original architecture while bringing the home into contemporary life. In the kitchen, the marble splashback celebrates the beauty of the stone, becoming a focal point within the broader design.There is thought behind the smaller details, too: how a space frames a favourite artwork, how colours and materials sit together, and where an unexpected shape adds interest. A new kitchen with Bosch appliances, renovated main bathroom and ensuite, new flooring throughout, and retiled laundry and separate toilet carry that thinking across the whole home. It feels considered, comfortable and ready to enjoy.Four bedrooms and separate living spaces provide flexibility for family life and time to yourself. In winter, afternoon sun fills the lounge, the solid fuel heater brings warmth to quiet evenings, and the sheltered entry and carport offer protection from the weather. During summer, the slab and honeycomb blinds help keep the interiors cool, supported by reverse-cycle air-conditioning.Outside, the new deck continues the home's interest in shape and proportion. An established gum tree shades summer dinners, while mornings have meant coffee in hand and collecting fresh eggs from the chicken coop. Kookaburras visit the backyard, king parrots frequent the side garden, and a tawny frogmouth was a regular visitor for a time. These small routines are part of what the owner has loved about living here.The garden has been levelled, with secure Colorbond fencing and room for pets, planting and outdoor life. A separate shed was built with an art or writing studio in mind, while the rear garden leaves space for the next owner's ideas. The battleaxe position makes good use of the block and provides a particularly private frontage, with substantial attic storage above the carport.Beyond the garden, nature becomes part of the daily routine. Tracks connect towards Wanniassa Hills Nature Reserve, and green corridors through the suburb lead to Fadden Pines. Running these paths and driving home along Bugden Avenue with the Brindabellas ahead have been among the owner's lasting pleasures.Friendly neighbours and quiet streets add to the sense of belonging. At night, the peacefulness is something the owner will particularly miss-the quietest place he has ever lived.For buyers wanting a completely renovated home with personality.For families drawn to privacy, a generous block and nature nearby.For those who appreciate thoughtful design and space to make life their own.The Location:•\tReserve directly behind the home, with local walking tracks nearby•\tTrack connections towards Wanniassa Hills Nature Reserve•\tWalk to Fadden Primary School without crossing a road•\tApprox. 4 minutes' drive to Fadden Pines•\tApprox. 5 minutes' drive to Erindale Centre and Erindale Interchange•\tApprox. 8 minutes' drive to Tuggeranong Town Centre and Lake TuggeranongThe Perks:•\tFour bedrooms, including a main bedroom with renovated ensuite•\tDesigned and built by T Seselja, with distinctive late-modern character•\tSplit-level layout with angled walls, raked ceilings and boxed beams•\tSeparate lounge, dining and family spaces•\tNew kitchen with marble splashback, Bosch oven, cooktop and dishwasher•\tRenovated main bathroom and retiled separate toilet•\tNew flooring throughout and retiled laundry•\tNatural materials, earthy colours and honeycomb blinds•\tReverse-cycle air-conditioning and solid fuel heater•\t6.8kW solar system with 17 Trina panels, SolarEdge inverter, power optimisers and Wi-Fi monitoring•\tNew deck shaded by an established gum tree•\tLevelled garden with secure Colorbond fencing and scope to personalise the rear section•\tSeparate shed created with an art or writing studio in mind•\tPrivate battleaxe position, sheltered entry and carport with pull-down attic storageThe Numbers:•\tLiving: 156m² approx.•\tBlock: 1,009m²•\tRates: $3,300 p.a.•\tLand Tax: $6,133 p.a.
