24 Emerton St, Evatt ACT 2617

The smooth rendered form rises from well-tended gardens and an impressive pink flowering camelia. A wide driveway ushers to a choice of sheltered parking – garage and carport, both with tilting garage doors. Stairs with striking iron balustrades connect to a front balcony that floats you above rooftops, out to the mountainous horizon.

There is a harmonious linking of social spaces, as large format ceramic flooring gleams in the sunlight. Timber flooring adds a note of warmth to the front living area, as plantation shutters filter soft light and gift glimpses of those stunning elevated views. This peaceful room curves to meet the open kitchen and dining area. It is from here that you first glimpse the blue waters of the swimming pool, as glass sliders forge a direct connection to outdoors.

The kitchen seems to float seamlessly in place, banks of white cabinetry meeting white stone waterfall countertop. The central island a place to work and gather in the sunlight that falls through the wall of windows. We love the earthy touch of the marble splash back, the gorgeous ribbon of veining and the duo of full-height pantries, banks of cabinetry, for effortless storage.

A slender hallway branches off the large foyer and separates the intimate wing creating a haven of tranquil sleeping spaces. Here three bedrooms coalesce around a family bathroom, finished in soft pink Tuscany hues. There is a bathtub and a separate toilet and each room captures leafy botanical views.

The master bedroom is nicely sequestered to the rear of the home and frames the garden and swimming pool. There is a large built-in-robe and an elegant ensuite bathroom made luminous by a wall of glass bricks. Organic marble tops the vanity and matches the earthy floor tiling, and the mosaic highlights like so many tumbled stones.

A generous multipurpose space is housed at ground level with direct access from the street and a second door opening to the garden and swimming pool. This inviting, private haven can be utilised as a living area and a generous bedroom with an ensuite bathroom. This is an elegant and flexible space, adaptable to a variety of changing needs. Think home office, creative studio, inter-generational living, or guest accommodation.

Layered sheltered, alfresco spaces edge the inground swimming pool, gifting a permanent holiday feel. The immediate and easy back and forth from the kitchen creates resort style living, without the need to leave home. Beyond the long veranda and the outdoor room, there is a layering of soft lawn and a corner dedicated to climbing equipment so the kids have a place to play.

Evatt is a family friendly suburb famous for its lovely country vibes, deep quiet, ample green spaces, walking tracks, ovals and surrounding reserve. The home is close to the local Evatt and Spence shops, a variety of schools and the Belconnen precinct, with its wide-ranging offering of entertainment, shopping and dining options, including the new Capital Food Markets. Ideally placed on a quiet loop street that flows to green spaces at both ends, and an easy stroll to parks and playgrounds, the home is also not far to the endless stretches of bushland reserve that stretch from Ginninderra Creek.

Convenient to the Westfield Belonnen, Bruce Stadium, the UC and Lake Ginninderra, the home is a mere 15 minutes to the CBD and the ANU.
