LOCATION PLUS! OPPORTUNITY PLUS!

As a suburb, Aranda is the true definition of “tightly held”.  There are not many listings in this suburb, and this means few opportunities to live in one of the best examples of a peaceful, natural treed suburb within the Canberra bush capital.    During 2011, there were only 30 house sales*, so opportunities do not come along often.  Add the fact that this is a no-through road away from arterial roads and busy traffic noise, and you have a perfect location in Aranda!  The owners feel ‘it is like living in the bush, but you are virtually in the centre of Canberra’.

The elevation of this double brick home and easy-care garden of wattles, eucalypts and natives sets the scene for this well-loved four bedroom ensuite family home.   The home was built to high standards in 1969, with solid full brick walls throughout and polished Tasmanian Oak floors, rare for today’s building styles.  The floors have been well maintained, having carpet for many years, and the large windows in every room give an abundance of natural light.   Awnings and orientation of the north facing home allows great cross-ventilation during summer and ducted gas heating ensures comfortable days and nights during winter..   Many years ago, the home was sited away from the trees, so there is no crowding around the home itself.

The fresh painting both inside and outside, as well as the types of trees and plants selected as part of the garden, have been colour-designed  to complement the house and surroundings, so your future home nestles comfortably with nature.  

When inside, the family room is separated from the dining room, which adjoins a well-planned new kitchen with Blanco appliances. The skylight and metres of storage cupboards in the family room is an added bonus, as this second living area is a good size for informal gatherings.   As is expected from a home of this era, all bedrooms are large by today’s standards, with three having built-in robes, with the master having an ensuite.   The main bathroom is renovated and the ensuite is updated. 

Downstairs, the large double garage is alongside the laundry and toilet and additional space for yet more storage. Together with the hobby room/rumpus room, you will never want for storage areas again.   Accessible from the double garage is a potential wine cellar area or additional surplus storage area, and an area under the home accessible from outside means your garden tools have a storage area of their own.     Your garden area also has the shade-house structure in place, as the owner grew, bred and judged camellias.

Don’t delay – this one won’t last long!
