48 Jaeger Circuit

There is a feeling of richness and restorative escape to this mid-century modern five-bedroom home, being offered for sale for the first time. Big timber framed windows and glass doors make the most of the elevated site, casting views of beautiful mountain horizons. The classic 80s, A. V. Jennings split-level design has been architecturally extended, adding both depth and generosity of space. This elegant family home is informed by layers and textures, combining a connection of social spaces and stunning gardens.

The original tumbled brick form is invisible from the street, tucked away at the end of a battle-axe block. The home is nestled elegantly amidst the trees, with natural rock stairs crowded by banksias and a magnificent grass tree.

Jarrah floors and timber joinery combine with a palette of soothing earthy tones- clay, eggshell, mulberry and rose. You step down to the sunken social area and are uplifted by raked ceilings, the luminosity of a well placed skylight. Here the original and the new are fused, as living merges to the extension, open kitchen and dining to a second living area. Glass sliders spill to a wrap around balcony with lots of alfresco nooks so you can follow the sun and shade. The mountains and trees are all around making it feel like a sanctuary.

The kitchen features marbled stone worktops, grained timber notes and reflective gunmetal greys. It efficiently serves up excellent storage and sleek appliances from Bosch. Long pendants deliver a soft glow and soaring voids add a beautiful feeling of space. An adjacent room doubles as both laundry and butler’s pantry, spilling to the veranda and private gardens.

The upper level is given over to four peaceful bedrooms that all have views to the northern gardens and natural reserve beyond. Think a layering of spring colour, azaleas, rhododendrons, cherry blossom and the autumnal turnings of Japanese Maples. The original master features glass sliders, walk-in-robe and an ensuite bathroom. Bedrooms three and four connect via pocket sliders and the fourth bedroom also opens to outside. The family bathroom sits close, with its relaxing tub set beneath the big window and convenient separate toilet.

Timber stairs usher upwards, where the new master bedroom sits amidst a gathering of eucalypts. We love the split level that mimics the original house design, broad steps take you to walk-in-storage and a relaxing window seat. You can step outside onto private Juliette balconies enjoying both northern sunshine and glorious views to the south and east. In the ensuite you find a gentle wash of green, pebble inlays, and refined timber tones of the wall hung vanity.

Jaeger Circuit is a loop street surrounded by bushland reserve. The home nudges Gossan Hill Nature Reserve to the rear and it is a leafy 5 min stroll to Radford College. The central location of Bruce, places you close to all the dynamic shops, restaurants and cafes of the Belconnen, Dickson, and Braddon precincts. It is not far to various local eateries, including Café Momo for jumbo coffees and Qure for curry night or mini pizzas. There are plenty of top-grade sporting facilities nearby, including AIS, Canberra International Sports and Aquatic Centre and GIO Stadium. North Canberra Hospital and the University of Canberra are close to hand and it is a mere 6.4 kms to the CBD.
