Privately positioned, this freestanding three-bedder is nestled discretely at the end of the complex and celebrates the ever-present, special energies of nature. Light falls through large windows, creating a dappled play of shadows across the rich timber hardwood floors. The iconic split-level design curates a layered lived experience, within a hideaway bushland setting.
The home packs a sustainable punch, with its 6-star energy rating, double glazing, boosted insulation and surrounding of cooling and drought hardy, native plantings. Part of a small enclave of mid-century townhouses - raw brick, sloping terracotta rooflines, clean lines – this restful escape is further privatised by a double garage and is accessed via a wide, neatly paved garden path that sweeps around one entire side of the home, cutting beneath the trees.
Plantation shutters lend an ambient vibe, as lofty ceiling heights maximise the feeling of space and flow. Fixed joinery adds warmth and texture and gifts plenty of storage and spots for curated display. The spacious front living area, stepping up to an elevated dining space that floats in place with elegant simplicity. The contemporary kitchen perfectly placed to one side - a study in white, with endless storage, including a walk-in-pantry, stone worktops, glass splashback and sleek stainless-steel appliances to match the linear chrome hardware.
The master bedroom has a built-in-robe and an elegant ensuite bathroom. There is a large family bathroom and separate laundry, completing the downstairs. The family bathroom, seamlessly finished in floor-to-ceiling tiles in soft nougat, and delivering a relaxing, corner spa bath.
Upstairs is given over to a duo of bedrooms, both informed by elevated and far-reaching views that capture the serenity of mountain ranges.
Cook is a wonderful place to live, boasting thriving community gardens, parkland, Mt Painter reserve, walking and biking trails and just 8 minutes' drive to the Arboretum. The home is ideally located in a peaceful cul-de-sac, alongside a leafy green common. It is an easy stroll to Cook shops, home to the popular cafés - Little Oink and To All My Friends. Jamison Plaza and the bustling Belconnen precinct and the famed Aranda shops are all close to hand. The home is also close to transport, schools, the AIS, Bruce Stadium and the UC. And only twelve minutes' drive to the CBD and the ANU.
