Home of the week: Deakin residence exudes old-world romance

The charming French Provincial facade of this Deakin home peeks out from the established greenery of the circle drive.

Inside is no less impressive. Brushbox timber flooring and high ceilings create an impressive entrance hall, setting the tone for the entire house. Throughout the home charming period fittings meet with convenient modern touches.

The impressive entry opens on to two living spaces. A formal lounge and dining area connect easily to the kitchen, perfect for entertaining.

The kitchen is a touch of pure modernity. The large space features stone benchtops, glass splashbacks and a walk-in pantry.

Further within, a meals and sitting area connects to the kitchen, opening into a secluded family space.

This area opens onto an alfresco dining area, overlooking the established gardens.

The master bedroom sits segregated, boasting an en suite and walk-in robe. Each of the four additional bedrooms are large, while a study adds an additional flexible space.

84 Dominion Circuit sits in one of Canberra’s most prestigious locales. Parliament House, Canberra Girls Grammar and the Deakin shops are a short walk away.
