Separate title townhouse - a real stunner!
This curated organic three-bedder, with its indoor-outdoor style is a secluded retreat, a true escape from the world. The home is hidden behind high walls, and serves up a textural feast of stone, timber and leafy green foliage. Entry is via a timber boardwalk, edged by a myriad of plantings that whisper and beckon…hinting at what lies beyond.
You just want to linger within the front courtyard, taking a seat at the floating bench…raw timber set against the texture of painted brick. Shadows scribe across the walls and plants tumble from the concrete edging. There is a rawness here, a paired back sensuality that allows the natural surfaces to speak. We love the whole wabi-sabi feel, surfaces weathering gracefully with age, and the found beauty of a large stone utilised as a front door step.
This bespoke sanctuary is arrayed across two levels and is very much informed by its natural surroundings. As soon as you enter this vintage development there is a vibe, think mid-century forms, sloping terracotta rooftops and a peaceful cul-de-sac, buffeted by circling reserve. It is just moments to endless restaurants and shopping experiences and the serene walking trails of Lake Ginninderra.
The mindful approach continues within as concrete floors stretch to meet crisp white walls. The main living space is open and airy, with a floating staircase striking an architectural note. Large glazing's at both ends extend the space into the natural environment. And the materiality champions the beauty of honest forms and materials – stainless steel, concrete, ceramic. The angles of the walls create a natural study niche and the dining area is intuitively placed to spill to the north, where a sunny courtyard garden opens to reserve.
The kitchen blends effortlessly into the gentle scheme with its mosaic tiled worktops and cabinetry in soft grey. It is perfectly arranged beneath big windows that allow you to gaze out to the trees while you potter and create. There is a laundry and separate powder room tucked away behind the kitchen.
Upstairs is given over to three peaceful bedrooms that drink in elevated views. The master bedroom opens to a private balcony, so you can wake to sunshine and birdsong. The big trees of the reserve seem to enter the space, influencing the lived experience. There are two additional bedrooms that gaze out over the organic modernist allure of the townhouses that dot the complex. While a minimalist family bathroom sits central – all white on white, with a deep bathtub.
