Eternal style: A Canberra home designed to last

When you hear the words “forever home”, most of us conjure up images of building a house from the ground up, tailoring each corner and crevice precisely to our taste so it can be loved and lived in with everlasting joy. But imagine if you could bypass all the work and stumble upon a house that’s been considered and crafted as if from your own imagination. Enter, 101 Langtree Crescent in Crace. 

With three floors, five separate living spaces, and a limitless display of light streaming throughout, this is a residence that will evolve with you over time. 

“The vendor had the vision, ‘what could we live in forever and more importantly, what won’t ever go out of date,” agent Theo Koutsikamanis of Bastion Property Group says. 

“And honestly, there is no comparison. Anything close to this home will only have been seen on TV shows like Grand Designs, and most are built to keep and never hit the market.” 

Conceptualised and created to be everlasting, the standard of craftsmanship is uncompromising. 

Taking in the multi-element facade as you step up to the front door, there can be no denying that this house is impressive. From the dramatic concrete slab that encircles the timber-clad garage door to the swathes of layered glass giving you a peek at what might be in store inside, it’s clear that this home is in its own class of design excellence. 

And then you step inside. 

“Immediately apparent is the abundance of natural light and extensive use of raw exposed off-form concrete complemented by the warmth of the Blackbutt timber cladding,” Koutsikamanis says.

“With soaring walls of glass, a double-height void, marble finishes and extensive custom joinery, this award-winning residence is absolutely flawless in its presentation and execution.”

You can’t help but marvel at the moody kitchen, donned in deep black cabinetry and offset by the pearly white stone island bench. Then you need only to turn around to get a glimpse of the glistening pool waiting to welcome you in the backyard. 

Wander along the Italian tiles a little further, and you’ll be presented with a rumpus room and a home cinema and gym to boot. To call it an entertainer’s dream would be putting it lightly. 

“This home really needs to be experienced in more than just the one inspection,” Koutsikamanis says.

“I believe the replacement time and cost for such a home will attract those astute buyers who see the value and understand a home like this would be very hard to replicate.”
