creating calm

Metres from the foothills of Mount Majura with magnificent mountain views from the front and back!<br/><br/>Past and present exist in harmony within this light filled three-bedroom ensuite home with its exacting and beautifully executed renovation and decided minimalist flair. It's the kind of home that makes you exhale…as the warmth of timber floors stretch to meet whisper white walls, ushering in an enveloping calm. Generous spaces feature large windows and glass sliders, welcoming light, and a magic aspect, forging a wonderful connection with outdoors. <br/><br/>This expansive residence rests on a whisper quiet and highly coveted street, just a few steps from Mount Majura Nature Reserve. Nestled behind deciduous trees and a tumble of sturdy ground covers, the homes rendered exterior is modern and eye-catching.<br/><br/>The interior spaces have been cleverly opened to improve flow and connect the home to a choice of wonderful outdoor spaces. The original garage, now a huge rumpus room/study, is perfectly sequestered at one end of the home so the kids and parents can enjoy time together and apart. Blackbutt floors glow golden in the light, the large front living area opening onto a walled courtyard that captures the morning sunshine. Come summer, doors can be flung open to capture garden breezes and time can be enjoyed outdoors, protected and shaded, with views straight to Mount Majura. <br/><br/>The living area flows openly to a stunning kitchen and combined family/dining room, it really is a magic space. Elegantly placed the large kitchen glows white as banks of cabinetry take care of storage and waterfall stone benchtops gift a natural materiality. Scandi chic abounds, the all-white theme serving up a generous serenity, with hardware in sleek chrome and quality appliances from Bosch and Asko. From the kitchen/family area you step straight onto a huge, covered deck with views out to the Brindabellas and beyond, taking in the sunsets as you enjoy a drink of choice.<br/><br/>The timber hallway separates the intimate wing of the home, culminating in the large rumpus room with glass doors that open to the front. There is a wall of built-in-cabinetry and ample space for lounging, playing, studying. This is the teen retreat, guest Accom or just a great space for the kids to play and hang out with friends. <br/><br/>The master suite is both welcoming and airy, with glass doors allowing you to spill to the rear deck. A wonderful attention imbues the room with a sense of luxury - soft changeable lighting, large walk-in-robe with custom cabinetry and Hollywood mirror. The ensuite is finished in floor to ceiling tiling and under floor heating, with brushed brass hardware adding depth to the minimalist set up. There is a wall hung oak vanity, a tonne of mirrored storage and organic stone benchtops with a duo of basins. A large walk-in-rain shower sits beneath the warm glow of a skylight.<br/><br/>Two additional bedrooms centre around a stunning family bathroom also with under floor heating and a relaxing bathtub, it shares the same materiality as the ensuite, with its textured kit-kat tiling and golden hardware.
