As any builder knows, it’s generally the little things that matter in a home. That’s why when builders craft their own homes, they bring a level of precision and thoughtfulness you won’t find in your average build.
Sitting at 2 Matters Street in Denman Prospect, this builder’s-own masterpiece nails the details that matter, without compromising on style.
Not that it isn’t beautiful to look at. The residence makes an instant impression with its striking facade and sophisticated landscaping.
Suzi Wells of MARQ Property says the craftsman-built home was inspired by the natural bushland surrounding Mt Stromlo and Denman Prospect.
“Designed with care by the builder for their own enjoyment, it features an impressive facade and sophisticated landscaping,” she adds.
Inside, soaring raked ceilings and a statement timber feature wall set the tone for refined living.
The open-plan kitchen is a showstopper with 100-millimetre stone benchtops, timber cabinetry, a butler’s pantry, and premium Electrolux appliances.
Glass doors slide open to an entertainer’s deck, where an electric sunroof with rain-sensing technology means you can enjoy it no matter the weather.
The clever floor plan offers flexibility, with four spacious bedrooms, including a multipurpose space that can function as one or two separate rooms.
While most of the home flows across a single level, the main-bedroom suite sits privately on the upper level. It features an elevated outlook, a study, walk-in wardrobe, and a luxurious en suite with dual showers, antique brass hardware and a heated towel wall.
You’ll also find heated polished concrete floors, under-tile heating in the bathrooms, ducted heating and cooling, a 13.3-kilowatt solar system, and smart home technology and security.
The double garage with internal access offers ample storage shelves and space for bike racks, as well as an separate toilet for convenience.
“The garage clearance is taller than usual, accommodating work vehicles or recreational equipment like rooftop tents,” Wells says.
The home comes with a price guide of $1.4 million-plus.
One of Canberra’s newer suburbs, Denman Prospect is a master-planned community that’s also big on the details. It serves up spectacular views across Canberra, a public art trail, a growing shopping and dining precinct, and great playgrounds, while outdoor adventure is within easy reach with Mount Stromlo’s trails just moments away.
