13 Weld Street, Yarralumla ACT 2600

Bursting with personality and providing a unique showcase for quality local materials and craftsmanship, this truly exceptional and distinctively renovated home sits on the high side of its street in Yarralumla's coveted embassy belt. Enveloping a sheltered wisteria-festooned alfresco area resplendent with a custom green wall, full outdoor kitchen, bench seating crafted with timber from the original Tharwa bridge built in the late 1800's, a real piece of local history. This stunning outdoor area is also ringed by Wee Jasper-stone pathways, and the interior living spaces have a compelling connection with the inviting outdoors.

In the kitchen, a servery opens to the alfresco while a custom 2.75m island – fashioned from Thor's Hammer reclaimed timbers – adds a warm contrast to the classic subway tiles that back the work surfaces. Look for the adjacent dining zone filled with charm, which lies beneath an industrial-chic exposed steel beam. It easily accommodates a 10-seat table and opens to the rear entertaining terrace.

Towards the street, the generous loungeroom basks in wonderful northern sun and light, with sliding doors that open to the elevated front terrace. Boasting views of Black Mountain, it would make a perfect, private spot for a morning beverage. Three crisp and contemporary bathrooms service the home's three generous bedrooms. The ensuite master benefits from velvety green views of the intriguing zen-like gardens.

Subject to approval, plans have also been drawn up ready to create a double garage, with rumpus or fourth bedroom on top capturing beautiful views adding a whole new dimension to this delightful and warm family home. Accessible to all the conveniences that living in the inner south brings, this home is both a special sanctuary and a perfect location close to the Parliamentary Triangle and Lake Burley Griffin.
