5 Jeanne Young Circuit, Mckellar ACT 2617

Created by the award winning Turco and Associates, this unique four bedroom home serves up thoughtful innovations, exacting architectural design. Even the floors are an experience, combining the honeyed tones of Sydney Blue Gum with the speckled delight of poured concrete. Clever joinery takes care of study, storage, sleeping and entertainment in one continuous statement, throwing in chimes of grandness and welcoming generosity. The timber baton work continues within, the upper living space, which is both open and intimate, becoming fully private with the easy slide of secret doors.

The sunken open plan kitchen, living and dining space is framed by bold lines and opens to the world on both sides, welcoming a celebratory pavilion experience. The kitchen is all waterfall stone worktops, large island, endless storage and quality appliances. Window seats run the length of the upper gallery so you can nature bathe and glass sliders spill to the north, where sheltered alfresco living lets you commune with family and friends within the warming sunshine.

The master is a haven unto itself and reads like a luxury hotel room with its open ensuite and bankable windows that allow you to sit within the trees. There is bathtub, twin basins, a toilet screened by frosted glass and a cleverly tucked away, walk-thru-robe.

A duo of additional bedrooms open via glass doors onto a private deck, stepping down to the garden. The family bathroom features a bathtub perfectly placed beneath corner windows so you can soak beneath the roses. Both bathrooms are gorgeously finished in gentle earthy tones with floor-to-ceiling tiling. And there is a fourth bedroom, tucked away at the front of the home, fitted with clever storage creating a versatile space that also works as a private home office.

The double garage has full cedar automatic doors and direct access to the rear garden. There is a pull-down ladder that ushers to a large loft, kitted out with a blackboard and a wall hung television, creating a fun space for the kids to hang. And the garden is yours to discover and enjoy …dedicated fire pit area, vegetable beds, mature crepe myrtle, elegant white roses, crab apple, cherry, peaches, pear and apple trees blend with a mix of gorgeous natives. It's all established, easy-care, fully irrigated and feels effortlessly in-tune with the relaxed, organic ethos of the entire home.
