20 Belah Street
O'connorAuction 11:00am Saturday 21 March

Designed to forge a continuous connection to landscape and to facilitate enduring family connection, the view house flows together like water. Big glazing’s frame the swimming pool, drift to alfresco moments and welcome lots of northern and eastern light. The materiality is consistent, combining timber, stone and patterned ceramics full of texture and movement. Proportion and balance are key, the home arrayed across two generous levels, effortlessly moulding itself to all the desires of modern family life.

This award winning, architecturally designed four-bedroom home presides elegantly on one of O’Connors most private and quiet streets. Despite its size, the form has a gentle presence, think light brick, the second story clad in black, almost floating in place. The landscaping is considered and your arrival is ordered by raw timber batons arranged with fastidious precision. The big timber door glides open and chevron floors glow golden, the blue waters of the pool shimmering behind a wall of glass.

The open family hub is designed around transparency, as glazing’s on both sides float you amidst the garden. Bankable windows become a servery onto a discreet courtyard and sliders open to a sheltered pergola, complete with outdoor kitchen. This big space speaks of gathering and sharing both inside and out. A window seat collects the sun and a floating console spans the full width of the room. Terrazzo and marbled stone pop against matt black and there are lovely curved and fluted details. Integrated appliances introduce a nice restraint, the kitchen merging to a Butler’s pantry, so life can remain ordered and minimal.

Active family life centres around the heated swimming pool that comes alive at night, illuminated by LED lighting. Working out and movie nights are taken care of within the dedicated gym and the adjacent media room. The ground floor completed by a sunny guest or fourth bedroom with northern garden views, wonderful storage and easy access to the adjacent bathroom.

The master suite is housed upstairs and flows to an enormous walk-in-robe with endless cabinetry. Beyond sits the ensuite – double basins, soothing rain shower, glowing skylight. Two children’s rooms cluster around a fun rumpus space and there is also a separate study and a large family bathroom. The attention to detail in all three bathrooms is special – feature tiling that evokes water across grey river pebbles, organic timber vanities, matt black hardware and soothing rain showers.

Belah is a sought-after, leafy street close to Lyneham shops and walking distance to O’Connor Reserve and handy to the village centres of O’Connor and Ainslie. The central locale of this beautiful suburb connects you to a lively mix of independent cafes, restaurants and shops while ample green spaces, shared bike and walking paths, and beautiful street trees create a tranquil village experience just a stone’s throw from the Braddon and Dickson precincts, the CBD and ANU.
