A meticulously renovated family home with a lush private oasis

A newly renovated four-bedroom, two-bathroom home in Holder, with plenty of garden space and lots of unique touches you’re sure to love, is the suburban sanctuary you’ve been looking for.

Located 20 minutes from the centre of Canberra, 20 Foxall Street in Holder offers multiple living spaces, built-in wardrobes in every bedroom, a study and a beautifully landscaped garden.

It’s a dream for a family looking for a comfortable, cosy home.

“It’s a really thoughtfully designed home for families, and the current owners redid every inch to a meticulous standard and maintained it beautifully,” Luton Properties Agent Justine Burke says.

The home is full of personality and charm. The Blackbutt timber flooring, the fireplace and the little timber nooks in the kitchen all give the home a real cosiness that is rare with new builds.

“It’s all been done to an incredible standard. The owners picked a great builder and the quality shows, especially with touches like the huge, double-glazed windows and the new kitchen,” Justine says.

The family room and living room are connected, and both are great places for the family to gather and enjoy quality time. Both family-oriented areas are thoughtfully designed to give that feeling of space as they both open onto the expansive deck overlooking the lush garden.

“The living space is perfect as a kids’ breakout zone, and in the warmer months, it all flows seamlessly into the outdoor areas,” Justine says.

The property has a great synergy with the natural world around it. There’s an emphasis on green space and taking that beauty inside through tall windows that maximise light. The living space connects to the outdoor dining area with its own built-in barbecue – an ideal spot to have dinner and relax.

The garden is a real treat, with a vibe more like a private botanical garden than a suburban backyard. It serves as both a play area for younger kids with a swing and a cubby house and as a well-maintained, quiet space for relaxation.

Walking through, you can’t help but imagine yourself sipping coffee and looking at the Japanese maples, the Wisteria or the Liquid Amber trees in the morning light.

“It all presents so beautifully and it’s very private. There are plenty of places to sit and relax,” Justine says.

The home is perfect for a family, a couple looking to start one or some empty nesters looking to downsize.

Justine says Holder is a great suburb for children, with this home in particular located just a few streets away from St Jude’s Catholic School and the Canberra Montessori School.

“It’s a very attractive area for families,” Justine says.

The home is well-sized for a modest family – it’s not so big that you’ll spend half your life cleaning and polishing it. It was made with convenience and ease in mind.

“It doesn’t feel oversized; it’s well-balanced without wasted space,” Justine says.

So much of the charm in 20 Foxall Street is in carefully planned details and in the meticulous standard to which it was built. With an elegant interior and a private green oasis outside, this property has something for everyone.
