Backing onto the Cooleman Ridge Nature Reserve, 32 Monkman Street is a grand home with six bedrooms, four bathrooms, a pool and deck area and stunning views of the capital.
This home feels spacious both inside and out – and for good reason. It is set on an enormous 2210 sqm block with 600 sqm of living space.
It’s impossible to fake good views, and 32 Monkman Street’s are incredible.
“The property is nestled beautifully among the gums looking down on some of Canberra’s most iconic landmarks like Parliament House and the War Memorial, as well as a sweeping panoramic view of the Brindabellas,” Bertram Ellis real estate agent Tom Ellis says.
Inside the home, you’ll find welcome surprises at every turn, like the spotted gum hardwood flooring, the Corian bench tops and high ceilings.
The master bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe the size of a room, an ensuite with double showers and a bathtub with a view of the reserve.
The eastern wing of the home has four bedrooms, each with walk-in robes, and two have their own ensuite.
“The property is perfect for a family looking for extra space on a grand scale. It’s hard to overstate the size of the home: the main bedroom is palatial,” Tom says.
The home’s rebuilt open-plan kitchen, with a walk-in pantry, double oven, Miele integrated fridge-freezer, Corian bench tops and Gorenje dishwasher will make dreams come true for serious cooks or anyone wanting to unleash their inner MasterChef.
The home has amazing potential for entertaining.
The outdoor area suits just about any event, from small get-togethers with mates all the way up to hosting Christmas for the extended family (or the neighbourhood), with the space and the features for everything in between.
“You could invite the whole weekend cricket team up for lunch, and it’s such a classy, well-designed space that you could really have any kind of gathering here,” Tom says.
The deck space, shaded by sails, has a TV mounted on the wall, a barbecue hooked up to mains gas, a sink and a bar fridge. Other than a good spread and some cold bevvies, it’s hard to imagine what the outdoor space is missing.
The showpiece is the pool and spa area. Designed and built by Richard Hamill, the saltwater chlorinated pool is solar and gas-heated and self-cleaning.
You can already imagine summer days lounging on a deck chair by the pool or evenings in the spa with a glass of wine looking up at the stars.
This property is overflowing with entertainment options. Downstairs there’s a rumpus/games room for a more quiet space to spend a cruisy afternoon and with the study/craft room at the rear of the home, there’s space for work and play.
And don’t forget the luxurious home theatre with a built-in sound system and a fridge.
The property has ease-of-living and peace-of-mind amenities that just make sense: a triple garage with workspace and storage system, an additional toilet behind the garage, a remote-controlled security gate, an intercom, an instant gas hot water system, solar power, ducted reverse-cycle air conditioning and a gas fireplace.
“People love these additions and luxury finishes. They make the home so much more liveable,” Tom says.
Nothing needs to be added to this home; it’s all taken care of.
As Tom explains: “The home is among the best in the district. It is a truly grand property,” Tom says.
32 Monkman Street is a standout property, bursting at the seams with exciting amenities, yet the quality and design do all the talking.
