48 Jaeger Circuit, Bruce, ACT 2617

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.​ ​
