Jerrabomberra 

With Rosalie Iannelli

There’s one word that comes to mind for the home at 230 Bicentennial Drive and that’s heavenly. 

This luxurious home has been given a recent makeover and it’s giving ethereal, elegant vibes. It helps that it has  three levels and sits at the top of Jerrabomberra, being a little bit closer to the clouds and boasting breathtaking views. It also backs onto a peaceful nature reserve. 

These heavenly vibes will follow you inside, and while you’ll be taken aback by the home’s inner beauty, you’ll also be pleased to see that it’s also just as practical and functional.

The windows are adorned with sheer curtains that lengthen the height of the ceilings and soften the light that enters the bright and airy space. The floors are laden with stunning large-format tiles and plush carpets, and the bathrooms are as luxe as they come.

The family, dining and kitchen area is open plan and designed to be a place of congregation. If you need more storage, the under stair storage room provides the answer.

The kitchen is deceiving. It presents as something cute and quaint on the outside, but hides an extensive butler’s pantry with double ovens, as well as two cooktops and dishwashers and striking marble benches and splashback.

These extra appliances will come in handy when entertaining, which is likely a regular occurrence given the expansive al fresco entertaining area overlooking low-maintenance gardens. There is another kitchen out here, too. And if your guests come in big numbers, the new driveway offers plenty of off-street parking.
