39 O'Keefe Avenue, Moncrieff, ACT 2914

39 O'Keefe Avenue is effortlessly contemporary and invitingly easy-care. Immersed within the quietness of nature, yet also well-connected, the home extends the best of both worlds - the conveniences of city living and the peace of the country. Reflecting the beauty of the sweeping bush surrounds, the palette is all subdued neutral tones, whites and soft greys, and there is a lovely spill to balcony from the open plan living arena.
 
Moncrieff is famous for its peace and quiet and welcoming community vibe. Locals enjoy coming together park side, enjoying a variety of organised events or simply to hang and chat while the kids play. The nearby Recreation Park is a colourful and imaginative creation, bound to energise the whole family, and of course there are the endless meandering bush paths, just minutes from your doorstep. Kids can walk safely to school and a plethora of shops, cafés and restaurants are just moments away.
 
The home is one of a neat row of townhouses, handsome in form with a mix of raw brick, warm timber panelling and pops of midnight black. We love the arrangement of side light and transom glass that frames the entry, casting natural light within. Beyond the front door is a European laundry, internal access to and from the garage and a private fenced courtyard garden.
 
The main living space occupies the second floor, comprising an open living, dining and kitchen, with glass sliders welcoming light, big sky views. Inside and out blends organically, with easy spill to balcony which is perfect for both quiet contemplation and entertaining. The kitchen is neatly housed in one corner and manages a balance of textured allure and matt softness, with its combo of ceramic tiling and cabinetry in hues of white and dove grey. Ample storage gifts a place for everything and there are sleek stainless-steel appliances for cooking up a storm.
 
The top level contains three peaceful bedrooms, all with soft carpeting and large black framed windows that usher in an ever-changing light. There is an ensuite to the master bedroom and a generous family bathroom, both elegantly finished with notes of midnight black set against crisp white, and soothing hints of bushland greys.
 
Moncrieff is one of Canberra's newer suburbs and is made up of new homes that capitalise on the dramatic surrounding landscape. Vast open spaces and mountain ranges characterise the locale and there are walking trails, ponds and a community centre coming soon. The home is a few minutes from the colourful Moncrieff Community Recreation Park which is Canberra's favourite playground! Family friendly with great community values - organised events on the Moncrieff Mingle page on Facebook, free fitness classes at the recreation park - there is a focus on bringing people together. Gungahlin town centre is 5 minutes away offering great shopping and dining experiences with Cornerstone Café and Bar, being a friendly, local favourite. Casey Marketplace is close to hand and Coles at Amaroo is moments away, and the home is a mere 16km from the CBD.
