Situated on a large elevated block of over 1090 square meters in Chapman this well-maintained family home offers fully landscaped gardens, a 12m in-ground lap pool and a very unique sports enclosure (cricket pitch) as part of its own executive class. Key to the design of this home is a very large 60 plus sqm hardwood deck that boasts northerly views of the National Arboretum and is equipped with plumbed gas, lighting, refrigerator space and storage that doubles as bench seating.
The unique feature to this property is a 21m long enclosed sporting cage, equipped with a cricket bowling machine that could equally be used as driving range, putting green, boot camp, yoga space or for one-on-one basketball. This enclosure is concealed on the rear of the block and sits parallel to a saltwater lap pool with water feature and when combined with a phenomenal nearby play space, this is a highly appealing zone for children and adults alike.
From the deck it's just a step through one set of sliding doors to the open-plan meals area and stylish kitchen or through another set of double doors to a sunlit rumpus that incorporates a powder room and a double workstation and could also be an ideal gaming space. When the party ends, simply waft away to the spacious master retreat complete with a custom private library alcove and skylit ensuite.
Easy walking to Cooleman Ridge, Chapman Primary School and shops, and with fabulous public transport and commuter routes to Woden, Weston and the city, this memorable family home balances work and rest with ample opportunities for play.
