Discreetly positioned in the heart of Braddon and a short walk from the city is this unique, contemporary family home, complete with large pool, outdoor studio and beautiful mature gardens. Modern in design, this versatile home boasts 4.5 metre high ceilings and epic windows, providing large, light filled rooms and useful spaces to accommodate families of varying size.

Split level living areas support the contemporary, architectural design and bring a sense of spaciousness and visual intrigue.

The large galley style kitchen includes custom joinery, quantum stone and stainless-steel benchtops, high end appliances and a walk in pantry.

Throughout the home, generous full height double glazed glass doors bring the outside in, providing ambient sunlight throughout winter and magnificent air ventilation in the warmer months. A full-height cement fireplace compliments the formal lounge area and houses a Cheminees Philippe firebox on an elegant, floating stone hearth. The majestic dining room offers premium space for entertaining and includes a secure, custom built wine room.

On the upper level the master retreat is large and well proportioned, boasting a private covered balcony, roomy deluxe ensuite and two walk-in wardrobes.

Three spacious queen-sized bedrooms share a quality deluxe family bathroom with separate bathtub, and floor to ceiling bookcases and a study/living area upstairs provides yet more space for relaxation or creative endeavours. The large fifth bedroom downstairs is perfect as a study, or to house your guests.

The superb inner city location completes the picture, providing innate privacy and an ultra-convenient location near the Braddon Tennis Club and Ainslie School, and a few minutes’ walk from Braddon’s vibrant dining scene and Canberra’s CBD.
