13 Fitzhardinge Crescent, Evatt, ACT 2617

The epic corner windows seem to meet the horizon, as if there is nothing between you and the spectacular mountains, the romantic cityscape. Black is used to stunning effect as ceramic floors gleam dark, accentuating the white walls and the chic use of chrome and glass. 

Perched high on a quiet meandering street, this luxury four-bedder reads like an exclusive holiday home. Moments from the endless green spaces that edge Ginninderra Creek and a short stroll to Ginninderra Foreshore, the home delivers a combo of in-house luxury with a dynamic outdoor lifestyle, right at your doorstep. 

Corten steel and blue stone retaining walls edge emerald, green lawns, mature magnolias, green hedges and clipped native grasses. The home itself a neat monochromatic display, as white rendered walls work against deep charcoal accents. A broad driveway ushers to a double garage which also houses a gymnasium, wine cellar and sauna.

Stairs usher to an expansive patio that captures the magnificent panoramic views, the perfect spot for an evening drink, watching the dusk fall over the moments, city lights all a twinkle in the distance. This breathtaking vista is continued within, as the sweeping living and dining room is informed by its epic surroundings. This beautiful room really is the hero of the house, at once elegant and cosy, impressive and welcoming. The space beckons you to quiet evenings of romance and relaxation, elegant dinner parties and the simple expansive joy of elevated living. 

The home keeps on giving as it unfolds from one delightful social arena to the next – cinema room, chic modern kitchen and second living that blurs into outdoor kitchen and sparkling pool. There is a whole room given over to a sunken spa, complete fibre optic ceiling lighting, wall hung TV and bankable doors spilling onto the swimming pool.

The intimate wing is all hotel-like indulgence, think chandelier above the floating bath, large showers, elegant tiling in moody dark and light hues. The master has a stylised feel with its papered wall, twin pendants and walk-in-robe with custom joinery in black and glass. There is an ensuite bathroom and views of the mountainous horizon from the large window. The three additional bedrooms are amenable to the sumptuous family bathroom and separate powder room.

The central kitchen elevates the home to the next level, with seamless white walls of cabinetry, integrated appliances and smooth Corian worktops add to the luxe appeal. The central island with ornate moulding, sleek linear lines and there is a butler's pantry to help with serious catering, clutter-free entertaining.

Bankable doors open fully to sheltered alfresco living, pool side. There is the soothing sound of cascading water and the feel of intimate walled gardens. Why go on holidays when it's all here? Secluded, private, decadently relaxing. Champagne in the spa anyone?

This gorgeous home is close to the local Evatt and Spence shops, a variety of schools and the Belconnen precinct, with its wide-ranging offering of entertainment, shopping and dining options. Convenient to the AIS, Bruce Stadium and the UC, it is a mere 15 minutes to the CBD and the ANU.
