Grand ceiling heights and a calming neutral palette coalesce in this contemporary three-bedder, privately tucked away within this leafy pocket of Campbell. Both social domains spill to a sunny, wrap-around patio, welcoming light and gifting the ultimate inside-outside privilege.
There is a rarified quality?whisper quiet, a surrounding of endless bush, the sacred presence of the nearby War Memorial. On cool mornings mist curls within the cultural monuments of The Parade and the surface of the Lake reflects the age-old trees that edge the walking trails that hug the shoreline. There is a vibe?at once sacrosanct and buzzing, the home on the very edge of the city and the Braddon hub.
The home sits at the end of long driveway, at the apex of a battle-axe block. Sandstone retaining walls are edged with strappy agapanthus, native grasses, heralding to a double garage with internal access. The form has a classic feel, think rendered taupe walls, dark iron balustrade and slate grey paved steps, ushering upward, to a sheltered front porch and a welcoming front door, flanked by a duo of sidelights.
Soft curves and multiple glazing's inform both generous social spaces. The front living area made cosy via soft carpet, while glass doors can be flung open to alfresco living. This sunlit room flows to the north, where an epic kitchen combined living and dining also spills to the outside terrace. Simplicity works its soothing magic, as easy-care ceramic floors coalesce with creamy walls, while lofty ceilings gift a wonderful sense of space.
The kitchen is perfectly arrayed with banks of cabinetry, including a pantry wall and a central floating island. Stone worktops and a gloss finished tiled splash back, add a timeless appeal, while pops of warm timber marry with the timber venetian blinds that filter the light. We love the way wine storage is neatly incorporated beneath the countertop of the island, while slim vertical cabinetry creates visual interest, the frosted glass a gentle shimmer of ocean green.
The master bedroom serves up a walk-thru-robe with custom joinery and an ensuite bathroom that is graced with sunlight. Two additional large bedrooms, all with built-in-robes, are served by a lovely family bathroom with a separate toilet. Both bathrooms feel decidedly high-end, with walls of buff tiling, subtle decorative accents and organic stone topped vanities. Glass bricks glow with light, illuminating the bathtub within the family bathroom, and there is a tonne of storage - wall hung vanity and cabinet set with frosted glass doors, echoing the kitchen.
A large laundry, fitted with storage solutions, opens directly onto the terrace, while internal access to the generous garage is via carpeted stairs. Throw in a large linen closet and an additional walk-in-utility cupboard and you have a spot for everything. The entire home's easy-living aesthetic perfectly designed for contemporary family living, with plenty of room to move, a continuous connection with nature and a rare, tranquil air.
Rosenthal is a peaceful street, dotted with new and iconic homes, moments from the walking trails of Mt Ainslie Reserve and the War Memorial. This special enclave places you minutes from Anzac Parade, Defence Academies, Reid and Lake Burly Griffin. The local Campbell shops, offer a great bakery and caf?, while the nearby Campbell 5 is one of Canberra's most popular and vibrant pockets, with its collection of sought after bars, restaurants and caf?s. It is a short coast down the hill to the CBD, Ainslie Village and the dynamic Braddon precinct. The home is minutes from Campbell High School, handy to a variety of schools, and within easy access of CIT and the ANU. You can walk to the creative hubs of Braddon and the CBD, connecting you to the best that Canberra has to offer.
