22 Walu Street, Aranda

Описание: Opulent Blend of Indoor and Outdoor Living at Striking Aranda Home

Cleverly designed to follow the slope of its 921sqm block, this stunning and meticulously maintained home has a commanding presence from the street. The floorplan maximises treetop views to the front and seamless indoor/outdoor living to the rear.

Perfectly configured for outdoor entertaining with a huge, north-facing deck cocooned in captivating greenery, relaxed gatherings here will enjoy a soundscape of birdsong and the burbling of a nearby water feature among the Japanese maples dotting the backyard.

If supplies run short from the wine fridge in the sleek kitchen's well-equipped walk-in pantry, then it's easy to nip downstairs to the 240 bottle wine cellar and tasting room to restock.

The beautiful outdoor scenery provides a wonderful backdrop to the airy and open family and meals room inside. Warming sunlight makes the ironbark timber floors glow and brings a sense of comforting calm. Concealed sliding doors lead to the formal lounge where roof top views dominate. An adjacent home office / study also capitalises on leafy views.

Secreted in its own wing on this floor, the palatial master bedroom has a segregated sitting area, private deck, bespoke walk-in wardrobe and roomy ensuite. A small library at the entry features custom shelving. There are three additional bedrooms on the ground floor, all with garden views, and serviced by a good-sized family bathroom.

Aranda is well known for its bushland setting, walking trails, welcoming community and dynamic shops and restaurants. It's also supremely positioned to access the Aranda Primary School, Radford College, University of Canberra, ANU, North Canberra Hospital, Belconnen Town Centre and Canberra CBD.
