Derived from the Spanish word for sun, Elio is Denman Prospect’s newest townhouse development.
On offer are 56 two and three-bedroom homes built by Elevated Living and – somewhat ironically – set on an elevated site, with panoramic views across the Molonglo Valley.
“All of the homes are north-facing and benefit from the glorious Canberra sunrises, so Elio is a fitting name for this spectacular development,” says agent Ben Wilson of LJ Hooker Project Marketing.
Designed by local, award-winning architects Kasparek Architects, the facade uses timber and metal detailing for a distinctive and contemporary look. Not only does it complement the surrounding environment, it will also be low maintenance well into the future.
Inside, the homes make the most of their north-facing aspects with living areas and bedrooms catching the warm winter sun.
There are five layouts to choose from, each of which balances space with functionality.
“There are well-proportioned, two-bedroom homes catering for new families and singles, and make a good proposition for first-home purchasers,” says Wilson.
“The three-bedroom options vary, with the larger homes coming with additional rumpus areas, side-by-side garages, wide six-metre grid living areas and large courtyards.”
To give buyers control over the look and feel of their home, there are three colour palettes to choose from, each of which provides a sophisticated blank canvas for styling the home. There are also customisable upgrades to really make the home feel like your own.
The kitchen includes large benchtops, a walk-in-panty, plenty of extra storage and gas cooktops. Other notable features throughout the homes include double glazing, low running costs and body corporate fees and ducted, reverse-cycle airconditioning to select townhouses.
Each home boasts generous outdoor space that is complemented by quality landscaping. It is sure to draw you outside in the warmer months to dine under the stars with family and friends.
There are also communal gardens and open green spaces surrounding the terraces, so you will never feel as though you are missing out on the benefits of a backyard.
“Elio will appeal to new families in their first home, growing families with requirements for larger more flexible spaces and downsizers who need a home that offers easy living in a tranquil setting,” says Wilson.
Positioned in the heart of Denman Prospect, Wilson says the best thing about Elio is its location.
“The shops are less than a five-minute walk away, and the popular Ridgeline Park is also just minutes on foot,” Wilson says.
“Set back on a quieter street, you still only have a short distance to walk to catch the bus to the city.”
“You will also see Mount Stromlo and the National Arboretum from your home and will likely drive past them both on your short commute to work,” he adds.
Expected completion is mid-2021.
