117 Bandjalong Crescent

Buyers guide $1,150,000+ The home rises gracefully from leafy Bandjalongdelivering elevated views and a spacious flexibility, arrayed across two levels. This classic blonde brick home feels quintessential Canberra, and very much at home within the mix of vintage homes and striking new builds that edge the Aranda bushland. Thoughtful updates engender a fusion of old and new, the home spilling to north facing gardens layered in tiers, climbing upwards, delivering you to treetops and endless skies. This 4-bedroom home has the distinction of a separate downstairs living, currently configured with kitchenette, bathroom, laundry and a duo of bedrooms. You can access this separately metered space directly from the street, gifting incredible flexibility, perfect for the ever-changing needs of the modern family. A long driveway ushers to plenty of parking - semi-enclosed carport and a double garage with twin, brand new, auto-roller doors. We love the grand stairwell that delivers you to the front door. There is a wraparound front veranda so you can settle-in with a morning coffee and watch the comings and goings of the street. Ideally located, a hop, skip, and a jump from the popular Aranda shops and local schools, never far from a myriad of green spaces, the home is also close to the peaceful trails that criss-cross the Aranda Reserves. The welcoming foyer sets the scene with its wall of fluted timber panelling that wraps around, edging the hallway. Hardwood timber floors gleam in the sunlight, as windows and glass sliders welcome light and landscape. French doors swing open to reveal an enormous open plan living and dining area that curves to meet the kitchen. The kitchen is contemporary, crisp white banks of cabinetry and a gentle speckle to the worktops. A large window above the sink means you can take in the garden, the kids at play while you prepare a gourmet meal. And we love the easy access to the sheltered rear deck, perfect for entertaining. A duo of big bedrooms, including the master with ensuite, serve up generous timber robes with inset dressers. While bedrooms three and four overlook the rear garden. The family bathroom is finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling and features a relaxing slipper tub and big rain shower. The separate toilet and the ensuite are cohesively finished in the same mix of crisp white and soft grey. The natural gradient of the block showcases an elevated outlook and layered stages within the big backyard. The deck steps down to soft lawn and steps usher upward, where three additional levels deliver on space and variety. Think expansive vegetable gardens, curated alfresco escapes with dreamy, endless views. There is lots of space and potential for the creative landscaper, the budding green thumb. Aranda is located at the western foot of Black Mountain and bounded on two sides by nature park. Famed for its bush setting and laid-back family, community vibes, Aranda, is also close to the thriving Belconnen precinct, Jamison shopping centre, and Aranda shops. The home is close to a variety of public & private educational options including well-regarded Aranda Primary School, Canberra High School, Radford College, ANU and the University of Canberra to name a few.
