Is this the perfect downsizer? Modern sanctuary in Mawson surrounded by lush gardens

At 5 Hurley Street in Mawson, it’s the details that do the talking – and they have plenty to say.

They start right at the entrance of the single-level, three-bedroom house. Panelled walls and statement lighting set the tone, while timber batten detailing reappears throughout, adding warmth and rhythm against a crisp, modern palette.

The kitchen is beautifully appointed with stone benchtops, sleek cabinetry and high-quality appliances.

Wrapped by windows, it offers garden views from different angles, with many spots to pull up a stool for casual dining, including one perfectly positioned to take in the greenery outside.

The adjoining living room boasts a feature fireplace, framed by custom joinery that transforms it into a design moment in its own right.

The accommodation is generous, including a substantial main-bedroom suite and well-appointed secondary bedrooms, each of which continues the home’s cohesive material palette.

Plantation shutters add softness and privacy, while thoughtful storage is integrated throughout.

Beautifully landscaped gardens wrap the home, with layered planting, mature greenery and a series of sunlit nooks designed for slow mornings or easy entertaining.

An undercover al fresco area extends the living and dining zones outdoors, while the oversized double garage includes a workshop space.

But it’s the smaller moments – a perfectly placed pendant, the wallpaper-wrapped powder room sink, the layering of materials – that give the home its real personality.

Agent Duncan Macdonald of Bastion Property Group says the home is one of the most impeccably presented homes he has represented.

“Feedback from our open homes has been overwhelmingly positive, reflecting its exceptional appeal and finish,” he adds.

The home has an auction price guide of $1.65 million-plus.
