“Laird Of The Glen”
If you've ever dreamt of living on a secluded estate circled by golf fairways and ponds and separated from your weekday life by a single road, you probably thought it only existed in the Scottish countryside.
Yet the quiet haven of Gleneagles in Canberra's Southern suburbs offers many of the same qualities. Surrounded by the greenery and waterways of the Murrumbidgee Country Club, and isolated from the nearest neighbourhood by Learmonth Drive, this delightful residence at 20 Ivo Whitton Drive is a substantial 4/5 bedroom home set on more than 920sqm of land amid meticulously landscaped gardens that were designed to be low maintenance and seasonally alluring.
Inside you'll find a generous single-level floor plan covering 211sqm featuring two excellent living areas plus a large open plan kitchen and a casual family room, both of which lead directly on to two wonderful balconies where you can the gorgeous views to the Brindabellas. The kitchen has extensive benchspace, well laid-out storage space, a modern dishawasher and a large pantry - entertaining in the future for friends and family will be something to look forward to. The open plan design of the kitchen allows smooth access to both family and dining areas and there's also the the allure of the balconies just outside.
After dark, the sleeping areas are just as inviting - the master bedroom features an ensuite and walk-in robe plus direct access tothe mainbalcony whilst the family bedrooms are equally jsut as spacious and include respectable wardrobes. A fifth room is currently used as a study but could just as easily be used as a bedroom/nursery. The home's slab flooring also creates a superb facility underfoot for additional storage or family archives and there's a generous remote-controlled double garage. Coupled with its beautiful presentation, the home has also been freshly painted and includes functional extras such as reverse cycle air-conditioning, an alarm system and a Crimsafe entry door. There's also easy off-street parking to accommodate additional family vehicles or a boat/trailer. Little wonder this is an area that's so tightly-held by its canny occupants that properties only rarely surface for sale.
When you consider the discreet location, the size of the land and home, the naturally green surrounds and the fact that you're within a moments drive of city conveniences, this is an opportunity worth toasting.
