Make an appointment to explore our list of must-inspect properties this week across Canberra and Milton.

Wherever you are in your property journey, we hope these top picks spark some inspiration.

 

Yarralumla

Do me a favour. When you approach the facade of the home at 36 Bentham Street, just pause for a moment and take it all in, because that’s the only way you can truly appreciate this art piece.

The divine is in the detail, and the exterior alone is full of them.

Custom-made angular front gates, a striking slanted roof with aligning front windows, cohesive materials like steel, stone and timber contrasted against beautifully green landscaped gardens, and lighting that’ll draw you home, like an angel’s call to heaven.

Which is fitting because the home really is a private haven.

36 Bentham Street, Yarralumla

Inside, the home is contemporary yet there are certain elements that throw off a kind of “old soul” vibe.

Likely because of the deep-brown feature timber panelling that appears across the home, the dark window frames and furnishings or the under-house cellar. It’s sophisticated but warm and inviting.

The floor plan is sensible, offering multiple living spaces, including a formal lounge and dining, a break-out sitting room upstairs, and an exquisite kitchen and family hub which flows out to a generous al fresco entertaining space.

The main suite is resort-style in proportions, enjoying a private balcony, a walk-in wardrobe and an en suite with a spa bath.

Coombs

No expense was spared at this custom-built home. From the moment you enter, you’re greeted by a wide entrance and 2.7-metre-high ceilings, an open-plan dining, kitchen and living space filled with natural light thanks to the multiple windows.

From here, you could easily spill out to the deck overlooking the private landscaped gardens and pool. The kitchen also enjoys a walk-in pantry, a large three-metre Caesarstone island bench with pendant lighting, and custom cabinetry.

A study is located just off the main living space. A second living space is next to a garage that could also double as the kids’ space or teenager’s retreat.

Other features include underfloor heating in all the bathrooms, double-glazed windows throughout and a 3.5-kilowatt solar panel system.
