9 Gidabal Street, Aranda, ACT 2614

Elevated above the canopy with magnificent treetop views and surrounded by nature, this family residence is a statement in timeless style and architectural excellence. Meticulously maintained by the current owners, it combines thoughtful renovations creating a unique sanctuary you'll love coming home to. The addition of a self-contained flat adds flexibility for multi-generational living or home office.

A symphony of timber, glass, and brick brings warmth and character, while the split-level design, raked ceilings, and a luxurious fireplace anchor the living space. Stacking doors to the deck blur the lines between inside and out, creating a seamless connection with the natural surrounds.

At the heart of the home is a contemporary, well-appointed kitchen, designed for entertaining and everyday ease. A vast waterfall stone island invites casual conversation during meal prep, while a café-style servery window to the deck makes weekend brunches and outdoor dining a breeze.

 The family and dining zone is awash with sunlight from the north-facing, wall-to-wall windows and the faceted dining alcove, with its serene 180-degree treetop views. You will be hugely impressed as you step outdoors onto the spectacular and expansive covered deck.  Whether it's morning coffee to the sound of the birds, a long lunch, or sunset drinks, this is where everyday moments become memorable.

The spacious main bedroom boasts rich timber built-in robes and a renovated ensuite, while the remaining bedrooms share a stylishly updated bathroom with a bath. Downstairs, a multi-purpose room and adjoining bathroom are perfect as a teen retreat, media room, studio, gym, or study.

A one-bedroom, one-bathroom, self-contained flat completes the picture. It features a private entry, open-plan living that extends to the deck, a fully equipped kitchen, and air conditioning. 

Extras that add functionality and comfort to this all-electric home include double-glazed windows and doors, zoned heating and cooling, automated blinds and shutters, ample storage, including under-house storage, solar power, and a double carport.

Set amongst beautiful landscaping where paths meander through lush gardens, this home offers surprises at every turn. A large, flat paved area is ideal as a second entertaining space or somewhere for the kids to shoot hoops.

The location adds to the appeal. Enjoying a quiet pocket of Aranda, the kids are just a short stroll to the Aranda Primary School, with no main roads to cross. Close by is the Jamison Plaza, and the popular Two Before Ten café.

With easy access to Belconnen, Radford College, the city, universities, hospitals, and nearby bushland reserves, this is the complete package: space, style, location, and lifestyle, all wrapped in one.
