143 Ross Smith Cres, Scullin ACT 2614

The stunning blonde brick form sits pretty behind soft lawns and pink flowering rose bushes. A long driveway provides plenty of off-street parking and there is gated access to a garage that sits well back on the site.

A small entry foyer gives way to a large, combined dining and living arena. Lush garden scenery seems to enter the room as the eye is drawn to a wall of windows. Easy-care timber laminate flooring flows underfoot and the soft palette of white on white, with threads of timber, nods to the native bush capital surrounds. A simple merge from dining room to shady outdoor deck makes communing alfresco an integral part of the warmer months.

There is a nice open link to the kitchen, where a neat row of large windows connects with the garden frontage, filling the space with light. The use of organic stone bench tops, banks of white cabinetry and pop of timber shelving, gifts a soothing minimal flair. The splashback captures the eye with its soft blue and grey marbling, while efficient stainless-steel appliances take care of business. There is a breakfast bar with plenty of room for the kids to gather.

Think precious time with family and friends, a relaxing glass of wine, chatting while you cook the dinner.

Three peaceful bedrooms benefit from large windows that provide leafy views, while mirrored built-in-cabinetry assures seamless storage. The second bedroom has a lovely nook for a study desk, ideal for homework.

A crisp white freestanding tub floats on soft grey floor to ceiling tiling. Pops of jet black add contemporary drama and coalesce with the softness of the oak vanity. We love the under cabinet lighting that imbues this gorgeous wet room, complete with rain shower, with a moody romance.

The large deck connects the whole family with nature and takes in views of the easy-care paving merging with soft lawns. Green walls privatise and enclose, while set back in one corner of the generous rear gardens, is a relaxing outdoor room.

Timber decking marries with timber baton work to semi-enclose this additional social space. Think lounging with a great book under the ceiling fan on lazy Sundays or celebrating into the night with friends.
