Architectural elegance meets sustainable design in a prestigious Deakin setting…
Winner of the 2023 MBA Awards for Medium Density Townhouses and VillasPerfectly positioned near a serene reserve, this architecturally designed four-bedroom home offers a rare combination of contemporary elegance, sustainability, and thoughtful craftsmanship. Situated within easy reach of Manuka, Kingston, Deakin Village, and the CBD, it delivers both tranquillity and convenience in one of Canberra's most sought-after locations.
Designed with a strong focus on natural light and energy efficiency, the residence is beautifully integrated with its surroundings. A carefully curated palette of crisp whites, deep greys, and warm spotted gum timber creates a striking interior, while unique design elements-including repurposed vintage roof trusses and re-laid original pavers-add depth and character to the home.
At the heart of the residence is a sophisticated kitchen, where Arabescato marble stone surfaces meet custom white cabinetry and striking blue-grey kit-kat tiles. A reclaimed hardwood breakfast bar, handcrafted by Thor's Hammer, adds warmth and texture. High-end Miele appliances, an integrated fridge/freezer, and a well-appointed butler's pantry ensure both style and functionality.
The open-plan living and dining area seamlessly connects to a sun-drenched courtyard, framed by soft sheer curtains that enhance the sense of space and flow. A separate parlour room offers a peaceful retreat, bathed in natural light and providing an effortless transition to the outdoor entertaining area.
The main bedroom, located on the ground floor, is a private sanctuary with direct courtyard access. A generous walk-in robe with soft grey shelving offers ample storage, while the ensuite exudes spa-like luxury with an oak double vanity, a rain shower, and elegant finishes. Upstairs, three additional bedrooms feature built-in robes and elevated treetop views, including sightlines to Parliament House and the surrounding parklands. The fourth bedroom enjoys the privacy of its own ensuite, while the main bathroom is beautifully appointed with a cast stone bath and premium fixtures.
Designed for entertaining, the alfresco area is a standout feature. Paved in French travertine and shaded by a pergola crafted from reclaimed steel beams, this inviting space includes a built-in outdoor kitchen with a barbecue, sink, and double under-bench fridge-perfect for relaxed gatherings year-round.
A remarkable blend of architectural excellence, sustainability, and premium design, this stunning residence offers an exceptional lifestyle in one of Deakin's most sought-after settings.
