If there's one property you take look at, make it 14 Forster Street. It's surprising. A true feeling of privacy, a lushness you won't often find in Bungendore, and a home that was lovingly curated by the owners to suit their family.
Usually, we would write the property text starting at the front door. Here, we really need to start at the very beginning. The moment you arrive at this property, you'll know you're home. It feels like you're leaving the world behind as you make your way into the front yard. The ultimate example of a private frontage, it frames the front entryway perfectly and adds valuable useable space to your outdoor areas. The owners have curated this area, and the rest of the gardens, with purpose and strategy, and you feel it. More on the gardens later, it's time to talk about the home.
The entryway is wide, and you get a peek of what's to come down the hall. To the right, is the first lounge room with views of the peaceful, enclosed front garden. You'll find this room gets a lot of use, a private spot to relax that is sure to be popular. Across the hall is the room currently dedicated as a study, that would make an equally comfortable bedroom or nursery, complete with a built in robe. The master bedroom has a walk-in robe and an ensuite, and to top it off enjoys garden views and access a private outside sitting area through large glass doors.
Next, you'll enter the main living area with abundant north and east facing sliding glass doors for light and cross-ventilation in summer and a wood heater for cosy winters. The open plan kitchen, dining and sitting area make an ideal family space or somewhere for a couple to relax after work. The kitchen features a large island, stone bench tops, ample storage, space for a large double door fridge and a double sink with filtered water. The views into the backyard really pull the indoor and outdoor areas together and high 2.7m ceilings throughout create a spacious, airy feel.
Down the hallway you'll discover the internal access to the double garage, the main bathroom with a bathtub, separate toilet, laundry and the two remaining bedrooms with built-in robes and garden views. The laundry provides external access to the western side of the property and clothesline.
Finally, the backyard. Whether you're a green thumb, or value your outdoor spaces, this is going to be a 'wow'. The outdoor living space features two main areas, the sunny deck covered by grape vines, and the covered alfresco. Wherever you choose, you'll be among greenery and quiet in the most peaceful of backyards. The owners find the deck to be a place of warmth and comfort even in winter, with this sun filled area wonderfully protected from the Southerly winds during the colder months.
You'll explore an assortment of natives, fruit trees, and species chosen specifically to either shade or screen. The gardens attract an array of native birds, and feature a lemon tree, blueberry bushes, apples, a fig tree, Fijoas, a pear tree, olives, a mulberry tree, an apricot tree and a range of herbs.
