There is a nostalgic call to meandering garden walks, childhood games - soft lawns, lush green walls, established trees, secret nooks, dappled shade - and a lovely combo of seclusion and connection, the garden refuge merging with local reserve and discreet paths, shared by community.
Sitting privately, in a pretty pocket at the end of a battle axe block, this generous family home enjoys a pristine tranquillity. A long driveway and romantic leafy archway, lend an air of secrecy, and the home is sheltered on all sides by green oasis, while an open flow to reserve creates a never-ending spaciousness.
Within, the home merges seamlessly to outdoors and is characterised by large picture windows that frame magical views, rows of ancient pines. A balanced floor plan, generous proportions lend an effortless feel; this is a home that is easy to live in, perfect for family life.
The generous open living, dining, and kitchen is well orientated to the north-east and the west, ideally engaged with garden and the daily patterns of changing light, seasons - think morning coffee on the sunny front veranda and later evening drinks, waving to neighbours out for their evening strolls, while an easy transition from dining room to elevated rear deck, is ideal for enjoying a barbie as the sun sets.
The modern kitchen in neutral palette of white on white with benchtops a calming deep blue grey, is packed with storage including a step-in-pantry. A large window draws in the outside and allows you to watch the kids at play, beyond the broad reach of the vintage apple tree, that shelters the home from the western sun.
A tiled hallway leads away from the social to the private sleeping zone. A trio of bedrooms centre around a family bathroom with tub and separate toilet. All three rooms enjoy beautiful morning light, with large picture windows framing the tall pines that stand sentinel within the hush of the reserve.
At the end of the hall, the sequestered master has a relaxed simplicity - high windows welcome light, while a wall of storage adds practicality along with the ease of a generous ensuite bathroom.
The beautiful garden has the added distinctions of full irrigation, dedicated herb and vegetable beds, wisteria draped carport and a large studio. The versatile studio space easily lends itself to home office, teen retreat, rumpus, or extra accommodation for guests.
Holt is a peaceful, established suburb just 12kms northwest of the city, and bordered by reserve and open pastures. The home is an easy stroll to Kippax, famous for its variety of excellent shops and great coffee. The Belconnen precinct is close to hand, extending a plethora of entertainment and eating experiences. The home is also close to schools, walking trails, playgrounds, Lake Ginninderra, AIS and the UC.
