Suite dreams are made of this Narrabundah home for sale

For the younger members of the family, a move to a new home generally means the inevitable fight over who gets which room. It’s a race to view all the options, quickly assess each one’s advantages and disadvantages, and promptly stake your claim. 

As for the grown-ups – the ones actually footing the bill – the choice is usually already made up for you, with the main bedroom suite offering all you need for comfortable living.

Prefer to have options? This home in Narrabundah is all about optimal liveability, and you even get your pick of main bedrooms.

The near-new home blends striking architecture, high-end fittings and fixtures, and easy living, with four spacious bedrooms, two of which fit the bill as a main.

The downstairs main bedroom suite, sitting privately from the other bedrooms, has its own walk-in robe and an oversized en suite with a free-standing bathtub. Or upstairs, the other main also has an impressive en suite and opens out to a spacious balcony looking over the pool.

“From a downsizing perspective, having the master on the ground floor is a big draw card and it’s disability-friendly in the sense that if there was a need for a wheelchair to get into the shower and move around, it is all quite easy. But you’ve also got a beautiful free standing stone bathtub there,” says selling agent Alexander Anlezark from Belle Property Canberra.

“Then upstairs, you’ve got another stunning en suite, and a large balcony off the master as well, which is quite sizeable. From a sunset perspective, it’s really quite impressive up there, and it overlooks the pool as well.”

The rest of the home is all about liveability. Entertaining is effortless, with the designer kitchen and living areas opening out to the al fresco area’s outdoor kitchen with a wine fridge, alongside the solar-heated pool and outdoor shower. 

Gardens are fully irrigated and low maintenance, while large voids and plenty of windows mean the inside of the home is flooded with natural light. And doing all the little things is also easy thanks to state-of-the-art home automation, which means you can control the lighting, heating and cooling, some of the blinds, the security and the pool, remotely.

“Even if you’re overseas or down the coast, you can control the whole house from your phone,” says Anlezark.

The new owners will also get to enjoy a brisk walk to the Griffith and Manuka shops, and can even pop to the Fyshwick Fresh Food Markets on foot for weekend supplies, and leave the car at home in the double garage. 

There’s little more to do other than just move straight in – and of course, decide whether it’ll be upstairs or downstairs for the main bedroom suite.
