Looking for the ultimate in family entertaining in Gungalin’s favourite suburb? An extremely rare opportunity, 1 Harrow Street in Crace, is set on one of the largest blocks in the suburb, a huge 890 m2 of meticulously landscaped gardens. The four-bedroom, 2.5 bathroom family home with 370 m2 of living space also features a deluxe outdoor entertaining area.

It is the complete package.

Luton Gunghalin agent Adrian Giampietro says, “This home is a real showstopper, without being over the top. Everyone who visits says ‘wow’.

“The home is perfect for any family that likes to entertain, from the huge alfresco dining area with built-in speakers to the fire pit and grassed area. There is plenty of room for the family to enjoy,” Adrian says.

From the street, the property’s commanding presence sets the tone straight away, with a smooth rendered façade and hedges and established gardens to greet you. The spacious entry gives way to a formal lounge room, complete with a cosy gas fireplace, leading to a light, airy and open planned living area.

The kitchen is the centrepiece of the ground floor with not one but two walk-in pantries providing plenty of storage and a 900 mm gas cooktop and oven for the home chef to enjoy.

A massive island bench provides a casual place to enjoy breakfast. European-style bi-fold windows connect you to the generous alfresco area, complete with speakers and an outdoor kitchen with gas, water, and electricity.

A custom Merbau timber staircase leads to the upstairs living quarters where you’ll find all four bedrooms, all with walk-in wardrobes.

The master bedroom features a gas fireplace and an ultra-luxurious ensuite with a free-standing bath with views to Gungahlin’s skyline, a huge shower, double vanities with stone benchtops and ample cupboard space.

Recently professionally painted inside and out, the home is in as-new condition throughout. Quality inclusions include plantation shutters upstairs and down, and double-glazed windows and doors.

Year-round comfort is ensured with evaporative cooling and hydronic heating in the floor downstairs, while hydronic wall heaters do the job upstairs.

Technology is on hand throughout the home, with fibre-to-the-home NBN, a Hills Home Hub and CAT 5e cabling throughout, plus data, TV and phone points in each bedroom.

An alarm system, a dual intercom for the front door, and security screen doors will cover the security needs of most.

The oversized double garage provides extra storage and high ceilings if you need to add even more storage options. The internal access garage leads you inside through the family-sized laundry which has even more space.

Outside, the garden is well set up with a fire pit, a raised deck area to catch the sun, grassed areas, a garden shed, and the 10,000-litre water tank is plumbed to the house and gardens.

“The garden is perfectly positioned and has plenty of room to add a pool if that appeals,” Adrian says.

“The home is on a street surrounded by other big homes and it is just a two-minute walk to local shops, medical centres, ovals, gyms, hairdressers and cafes – this is the forever home you’ve all been searching for.”
