A sun-drenched sanctuary above the rest.

House - Banks ACT

Elevated. North-facing. Unrivaled. Surrounded by the area’s most admired homes and tucked away in a quiet enclave with nature as your neighbour to the side and rear, this is a property that commands attention from the first glance.

The sheltered portico provides a refined introduction its grand proportions, opening into a series of spaces where every room is oriented to capture the light and the landscape. This sense of scale is best felt in the kitchen and meals area. This high-performance social hub, anchored by an island breakfast bar and top-tier European appliances, is designed to pivot effortlessly between quiet family mornings in the sun-drenched family room and grand-scale entertaining in the front lounge, where glass doors open to a covered balcony and sweeping valley views.

The accommodation is equally impressive, headlined by a private main suite that boasts a custom-tailored walk-in robe and a lavish ensuite where you can soak in the spa bath while taking in the view.

Beyond the main living zones lies an outdoor sanctuary designed for legendary gatherings. This all-weather hub is fully equipped with a built-in spa, a premium Ziegler & Brown BBQ, and multiple beer taps, all anchored by the warmth of a wood fire. Just as impressive is the lower-level flexibility; a sizeable rumpus room with a dedicated entrance that offers complete independence. Whether you need a guest wing, a professional workspace, or a quiet fourth bedroom, the layout adapts to your life, not the other way around.

Modern efficiency and security are woven into the fabric of the property, from the massive 27-panel solar array with dual 12.5kWh batteries to the comprehensive surveillance system and full underfloor insulation. With abundant storage, a double internal-access garage, and significant scope for future value in the under-house area, this is more than just a house, it is a future-proof sanctuary designed for the ultimate Australian lifestyle.
