2 Ridings Road, Googong, NSW 2620

In early 2016, the current owners made the big move from Sydney to Canberra, searching for the perfect family home to start their journey. They found it at 2 Ridings Road, Googong - a beautiful four-bedroom, two-bathroom home with a large double lock-up garage in an unbeatable location. Situated close to shops, schools, and playgrounds, this home has been the foundation of many cherished family memories.

The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers spacious living, with a master bedroom featuring both a walk-in wardrobe and an additional built-in wardrobe. Each of the other three bedrooms come with built-in wardrobes, ensuring ample storage. Two living areas provide flexibility for family gatherings, relaxation, or entertaining guests.

The heart of the home is the beautifully updated kitchen, complete with a freestanding 900mm 5-burner gas cooktop and electric oven - an absolute dream for home cooks. In 2021, the homeowners renovated the space to include a generous walk-in butler's pantry, making the kitchen even more functional. The laundry was also upgraded in 2022, adding an internal clothesline for convenience.

Beyond the interiors, the outdoor space has been designed for both relaxation and play. The undercover alfresco area has been the setting for many outdoor meals while the children played in the large cubby house or explored the backyard. A fire pit area adds warmth and charm to cool evenings, and the chicken coop and run provide an opportunity for sustainable living.

A standout feature of this home is the impressive 3-phase 15kw solar system. With top-of-the-line Jinko panels and a Fronius inverter, it generates up to $1.65 per hour - producing four times the required power in summer (even with an EV car) and maintaining close to net-zero energy use in winter.

The double garage offers secure parking, with extra room for trailer storage. Additional features such as reverse cycle dual-zone Toshiba ducted air-conditioning, illuminated light switches, a linen press, and a clothesline add to the home's practicality and comfort.

The meticulously maintained yard is serviced by a 13-zone automatic sprinkler system, ensuring lush, green lawns year-round. Two self-wicking vegetable garden beds offer homegrown produce, while a garden shed with downlights and power points provides additional storage and workspace.

Beyond the house itself, the sense of community in Googong has been truly special. The ability to walk to shops, schools, parks, and the local swimming pool has been an incredible lifestyle advantage. Over the years, the backyard has played host to countless birthday parties, and the friendships formed here will last a lifetime. Moving here as strangers and leaving with lifelong friends, the current owners have loved every moment in this home and know that the next family to call it theirs will too.
