House of the week: New-build Curtin home designed for the modern family

Nestled in the heart of Curtin, 27 Colebatch Place is a new, architect-designed home that transcends the ordinary. A quiet cul-de-sac sets the stage for this stylish, north-facing residence that is, as the listing suggests, beautiful from the street but even better up close.

The floor plan is tuned to the modern family. From the entry, the home is long and on the narrow side but certainly not short on space since there is so much to uncover along the way.

The main bedroom sits at the front, away from the remaining three bedrooms. The walk-in wardrobe and en suite will more than satisfy you with space and style.

Opposite the main bedroom is a mud room, where grubby shoes, jackets or umbrellas can be left behind as soon as exiting the garage to keep this house as pristine as possible, even with small children running amok inside its walls.

Continue onwards, and you’ll find a separate living room that can be set up for whatever your family’s life stage requires. For example, as a playroom for young children or a media/cinema room for older ones.

The kitchen, living and dining spaces fall in the heart of the home, and each is as luxe and sophisticated as the next.

The best part is that this whole area opens out to the spacious al fresco area, which embraces the northern aspect. There’s a sun-drenched deck that connects to the second living room and backyard grass, and then a covered side area equipped with an outdoor kitchen and barbecue, which is ideal for entertaining.

This is a serene suburb that seamlessly blends lush greenery with a tranquil residential charm. This suburb is conveniently connected to amenities thanks to its proximity to great schools, daycares, coffee shops and the Woden Town Centre.

Agent Matt Shipard of Hive Property says: “When function and form combine, you get something like 27 Colebatch Place, a single-level home designed around a north-east-facing outdoor space. The covered al fresco area, complete with an outdoor kitchen and deck, offers two areas to sit back and enjoy your surroundings.”
