Home sweet Holt: Boutique development designed to complement busy lifestyles

Newly established Ginninderra Estate is known for its tranquillity.

Gently sloped land provides vistas spanning towards the Brindabella Mountain Range. Neighboured by an abundance of green space via the Belconnen Golf Course, it’s a picturesque place to raise a family or settle in for a blissful life after downsizing.

But for so many, building a home from the ground up in this serene location is not so relaxing.

Purchasing the land, choosing a building, deciding on the perfect home design – there is so much do to. Couple that with ensuring you don’t blow your budget and you’d be forgiven for feeling as though it’s all a bit much.

Enter The Fullston, a boutique development of just seven three-bedroom townhouses, developed by local builder Oakleigh Projects and designed for anyone who enjoys a low-maintenance lifestyle.

The design, the build, the fittings and the finishes have all been taken care of for you (and you’ll be pleased to know, they’re ridiculously affordable). There’s just one tiny problem, there aren’t many left.

“Of the seven townhouses, only the three double-storey designs remain available,” says agent Daniel Beames of Independent.

The Fullston was designed to cater for changing family dynamics, providing spacious open-plan spaces that allow for easy interaction with family and friends, while still provide enough space for those much-needed private moments.

“The finishes were chosen for easy care and maintenance to complement buyers’ busy lifestyles,” says Beames, “while the colours used throughout the homes were chosen to complement the surrounding environment to ensure they stand the test of time.”

The open-plan living and dining spaces are filled with light and look out to the landscaped gardens through full-height windows.

The kitchen features an impressive stone benchtop, custom-made joinery enclosed to the ceiling, flush-mount double sink and modern Fisher & Paykel appliances. While it’s certainly appealing for the home entertainer or cook, it also makes time spent in the kitchen as enjoyable as possible.

There’s also plenty to enjoy outside of the home.

“The Fullston is adjacent to green open spaces including the Magpies Golf Club and backs on to the local playground with views of the picturesque Brindabella Mountain Ranges,” Beames says.

“Kippax shopping complex is just a short drive away and the Canberra CBD can be easily accessed by way of the upgraded William Hovell Drive.”

For many, one particularly appealing element is that no apartments will be built in Ginninderra Estate, helping to preserve the calm, suburban lifestyle it promises.

Expected completion is later this year.
