Here is a rare opportunity to secure a quality property in the blue-chip location of McKellar.

This light-filled five-bedroom, three-bathroom property at 141 William Webb Drive has been a much-loved family home for over 30 years and offers an abundance of living and entertaining spaces on a substantial 922 square metre block. There is plenty of room for a growing family to relax in comfort.

“The current family have loved it,” Ray White Canberra agent Treston Bamber says.

“The grandkids and extended family love coming here to celebrate Christmas and special occasions. The children have all grown up here and will miss the gardens and the family-friendly floor plan.”

One prospective buyer remarked that the home is so warm and inviting “it feels like it gives you a hug as you walk through the front door”.

The current owners are downsizing and hope the next family will love and enjoy the home as much as they have.

Spacious and practical, the upstairs consists of a formal lounge and dining room that flows onto the open plan kitchen, family and meals area.

On the same level but separated from the living area for uninterrupted rest are five good-sized bedrooms with built-in robes – the master with a walk-in robe and ensuite, and a family bathroom with a separate toilet. Downstairs you will find a rumpus room and a third bathroom, a double lock-up garage, lots of storage and the laundry with yard access.

Entertaining is a breeze from the centrally located kitchen with direct access to the formal dining room, meals area and deck outside. The kitchen has ample storage, prep space and dishwasher.

Winter sunlight floods the formal lounge through the full-length colonial windows, making it a warm and welcoming space to relax and entertain in, while the rumpus room is the perfect place for a games room or teenage retreat. Other creature comforts include efficient ducted heating and cooling throughout.

As well as the private, covered rear deck, there is a second covered alfresco entertaining space, set among beautiful established gardens, creating a favourite spot for socialising.

Meander along the paths in the lovingly tended gardens where there are many quiet nooks to relax and enjoy the birdlife and plenty of space for children to play and explore. Fully fenced, the garden includes a double lock-up garage with storage.

Set on over 900 square metres, it’s easy to find a peaceful nook for a moment’s timeout.

Situated in a quality neighbourhood, this home is within walking distance of local schools, and the bus stop is almost at your door.

Belconnen Westfield is less than a 10-minute drive away for all your shopping needs. Walking and bike tracks that take you through parklands and onto Lake Ginninderra and surrounds are just down the road. The University of Canberra is also close, and you’re just 12 minutes from the CBD.

Don’t miss your chance to secure this tightly held, much-loved family home and make it part of your own family history. This home will be auctioned on-site on Saturday, 7 August at 11:30 am.
