Description: THE STORY. Purchased in January 2008, the homeowners were immediately drawn to what made this property stand out from the rest the space, the elevated outlook across Queanbeyan, and the versatility the home offered for family life. The north-facing aspect was another key factor, helping the home stay naturally comfortable throughout the seasons, capturing warmth through winter while moderating the summer heat. Over the years, the home has been thoughtfully improved to enhance both functionality and lifestyle. The layout between the kitchen and laundry was reconfigured early on to create better flow and easier access to the outdoor entertaining area, making gatherings with family and friends far more practical. One of the home's most unique features has been the soundproof, self-contained studio. Whether used as a creative space, a private retreat, guest accommodation or a home office, it has provided flexibility that has adapted with the family's needs over time. The backyard played a big role in daily life here. With established fruit trees, extensive paving, and an above-ground pool, the outdoor space has been designed for both relaxation and entertaining, all while enjoying the elevated outlook across town. Over time, careful upgrades and improvements have ensured the home remains comfortable, modern and well maintained. Now, after many years of enjoying the lifestyle this home offers, the owners are ready for the next chapter, opening the door for a new family to create their own memories here. THE HOME. Positioned to capture natural light and elevated views, this north-facing four-bedroom home offers comfortable family living with flexible spaces both inside and out. The main living areas are warm and inviting, with bamboo flooring installed throughout the living spaces, hallway and kitchen to provide a modern, durable finish. The kitchen forms the centre of the home and features generous storage, an Asko dishwasher, quality appliances and a café window opening directly to the outdoor entertaining area, a practical design that makes hosting and everyday living easy. Three of the bedrooms include built-in wardrobes, and the master bedroom has been upgraded with full floor-to-ceiling cabinetry to maximise storage. The main bathroom was upgraded in 2018 and includes a relaxing spa bath. Outside, the property continues to impress with a covered entertaining area, established fruit trees, rainwater tanks, extensive paved areas and an above-ground pool with a current compliance certificate. A standout feature is the air-conditioned, soundproof studio/granny flat with its own upgraded kitchen, freshly painted interior and new carpet, providing a highly adaptable space for work, hobbies, guests or extended family. A brand-new roof installed in October 2025 with a 10-year warranty, along with fresh internal paint, new ceiling paint and recently landscaped gardens, ensures the home is ready to move straight into.
