This Wanniassa property feels more like a resort than a house, and with a total of six bedrooms, four bathrooms, 7 Toohey Place is full of surprises.

The property has two houses: a main home with four bedrooms, each with built-in robes and two bathrooms, and an apartment with two bedrooms and another two bathrooms.

You’ll also find a pool and a half tennis court.

The property is well located – it’s just 20 minutes from the Canberra CBD and five minutes from Erindale, Tuggeranong and Woden shopping centres.

“The home is a perfect blend for all families,” Matheson Real Estate agent Vittoria Matheson says.

“The granny flat allows for adult kids to stay and save, to support aging family members, or it could be used as a rental. It’s financial freedom.”

Set in a quiet little cul-de-sac, the massive 2000 sqm block means you have room to roam even within the limits of your own grounds, and with an expansive orchard garden featuring apple, lemon and olive trees, you don’t have to go far for a nature escape.

The home itself is private, fenced off, and not visible from the drive, but when you feel the call of the great outdoors, it’s right there waiting for you.

“The property is hugging Mount Taylor and is nestled between the southside’s finest mountain ranges,” Vittoria explains.

The location is perfect for hikes, mountain biking, or just a relaxing walk after a long day – and you’ll love the neighbourhood. Kids play in front lawns in the afternoon, and people are welcoming.

“It really feels like a community. Neighbours trust each other with their keys if there’s an emergency,” Vittoria says.

Size, comfort and ease are front and centre when you come into 7 Toohey Place. The property pulls off a difficult trick – it’s a big home with the kind of amenities you may expect in a luxury hotel, yet it doesn’t feel oversized. The house perfectly combines its scope and luxury with more homely qualities, especially if you’re an entertainer.

The kitchen is a dream for any chef, with new sleek appliances and an oversized island for prep. Once the food is served, sit in the bar/living space overlooking the saltwater pool or head out to the alfresco dining area and dine under the stars.

“The main kitchen and living area overlooks all aspects of the property. You can be watching over the kids in the pool, whilst others are playing tennis,” Vittoria says.

Walking through the property, it’s easy to see a future filled with cruisy Sunday barbecues, or finish up a game of tennis on the property’s court, then take a walk through the orchard, have a dip in the pool, then finish off with an hour or two in the spa bath that overlooks the pool.

And if you want to settle in early while others keep on, the bedrooms have a wonderful sense of quiet and privacy.

“They all have shutter doors and look out over the garden. It’s easy to get away from it all and have some time to yourself,” Vittoria says.
