Offering a timeless design and a unique lifestyle in one of Canberra’s most prestigious suburbs, 22 Fergusson Crescent is a four-bedroom, two-bathroom home in Deakin, embodying the best of the inner south.
Originally built in 1967, this property has been renovated over the years, resulting in a classically designed home with a modern interior.
“I’ve had the privilege of selling this home three times over many years, and I’m so pleased that each new owner has chosen to preserve the original footprint,” Luton agent Geraldine Collison says.
New additions include striking floor tiles, Canterbury carpet, polished timber floors, a renovated downstairs laundry and a new kitchen with granite benchtops and a farmhouse sink, which still retains the charm of the original.
“All of the renovations have been completed with great care and respect for the home’s original design,” Geraldine says.
“When the decorators came through, they were genuinely impressed, even down to the colour palette. The kitchen is a perfect example, it’s modern and functional, yet the integrity of the home has been beautifully maintained.”
The home offers a unique lifestyle across three floors, with an entry foyer on the ground floor leading to the dining room, family room, a separate kitchen, and a large living room.
Upstairs are the home’s four bedrooms, each with built-in robes.
The home’s main bathroom, located on the top floor, features a spa bath and underfloor heating, while the secondary bedroom boasts a prominent Juliet balcony.
“Everyone who comes through this home comments on how much natural light there is,” Geraldine says.
“The dining and family areas have wonderful windows, and the bedrooms feature distinctive angled designs that make the spaces feel even more open and welcoming.”
The lower level has two separate rooms, one configured as a study room and the other as a guest room.
“These rooms add real versatility to the property. For modern families wanting extra living space or a dedicated work-from-home area, this is a real bonus,” Geraldine says.
The home’s outdoor space is substantial, featuring a large deck that connects to the family room through double French doors and a spacious backyard.
“There’s plenty of room for children to play safely while parents can keep a close eye on them from the deck,” Geraldine says.
At 688 sqm, the size of the block provides the owner with room to expand, as it is RZ2 zoned, allowing for the addition of a second dwelling.
Within walking distance of some of Canberra’s best schools, including Canberra Girls Grammar, this property is ideally positioned for families.
“This home’s location is really quite special. Students can walk to school each day, the Parliamentary Triangle is a five-minute drive away, and the Deakin shops are within walking distance,” Geraldine says.
“And simply put, Deakin is one of Canberra’s most desirable suburbs; it has a good reputation.”
Beautifully updated, with room to expand and an ideal location, 22 Fergusson Crescent is a premier property that showcases just how well a property can evolve over the years.
