60/13 Chandler Street, Belconnen, ACT 2617

Offered for sale for the first time, this lovely home has been owned by the same couple since it was built! 

Breathtaking views across the Belconnen skyline, taking in Lake Ginninderra and the glorious mountain ranges, from a balcony that extends from the social domain to meet the master bedroom.

This spacious three-bedroom apartment is housed in the Netanya building that rises grandly above central Belconnen. This coveted locale places you within walking distance of a myriad of enticing eating, drinking and shopping experiences. It's an easy stroll to Emu Bank and the lake foreshore, and a short trip down arterial roads to the dynamic inner-north and the CBD.

The building features red trimmed balconies that pop against deep grey walls. Sandstone cladding adds a grounding, earthy feel and the balconies are balustraded with handsome black wrought iron. Glass doors and a towering ribbon of glass  illuminates the foyer, painting the stairwell in a golden glow of sunshine. The communal areas are beautifully landscaped and feature an indoor and outdoor pool, gymnasium, sauna, as well as a squash and tennis court.

Living is arranged in an open plan, spilling to a deep, sheltered balcony. From here you look out over the manicured gardens, glimpse the indoor swimming pool and enjoy an avenue of blossom trees. The panoramic northern views fill the home with landscape, light and sky. Soft carpet stretches to meet creamy white walls, adding to the airy effect. This is a generous space that would suit a variety of layouts, easily combining a large dining space and comfy lounges. 

The kitchen is ideally placed to take in the views and remain openly conversational with the social arena. Black granite worktops meet tiled splashbacks, harmonising with banks of neutral cabinetry. Built in appliances include an oven from Westinghouse, electric cooktop from Kleenmaid and a dishwasher from Bosch. Think entertaining family and friends, drifting to the balcony with champagne in hand as the light fades over the mountains and the city puts on its show of twinkling lights.

The master bedroom is wonderfully light and informed by captivating views. At once open and private with glass sliders that open onto the deep balcony, the room invites with its fresh air feel and invitational tug to outdoors. It is easy to imagine inspired mornings, waking to greet the first light of the day. There is a walk-in-robe for seamless storage and a large ensuite bathroom with corner spa bath.

Two additional bedrooms, both with built-in-robes, centre around a family bathroom. Both bathrooms are finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling in crisp white and soft sky blue. The family bathroom includes a compact European laundry and there is also a basement carpark and secure intercom access.
