An entertainer’s dream with a flair for modern design and more inclusions than you can count, 16 Bizant Street is a five-bedroom, two-bathroom home sure to make waves in Amaroo.

A builder’s own home, this property was clearly designed to impress. A high-canted ceiling, large windows and skylights take advantage of the north-easterly aspect, creating bright, open spaces.

“The design is just immaculate. That sense of light and space is a clear focus, with the orientation and the lake at the back of the home used to great advantage,” MARQ Property Justin Taylor says.

The living areas focus on a large family room with a feature brick fireplace, a dining room, and a kitchen with a walk-in pantry that opens to the outdoor area through sliding doors.

“What you need to know about this home is that it is absolutely geared towards entertaining in all respects. The dining room is huge – it could fit a real crowd,” Justin says.

“The kitchen is a story in itself, overflowing with features and inclusions. The builder is quite meticulous in how he designs and executes his properties.”

This kitchen was built to please, with a Miele integrated fridge; a Zip in-bench boiling, chilled, and sparkling water tap; a Bosch cooktop; a pyrolytic oven; and a walk-in pantry with prep space.

Entertaining and living can easily spill out into the home’s alfresco area, a beautifully designed 30-sqm space with an in-built barbecue, pizza oven and a louvre roof.

“As if that wasn’t enough, the property also has a heated combined pool and spa, as well as a cedar sauna with a Swedish Tylo hot rock system. The pool even overlooks the Yerrabi Pond,” Justin says.

While the home was built for entertaining, it still has more than enough private spaces, with a lounge at the front of the home and a rumpus room currently used as a cinema.

“The home was built for entertaining, but it’s not one-note. The property is the perfect setting for big get-togethers, but it’s also a quiet, peaceful retreat. It just does everything,” Justin says.

All bedrooms are oversized and the main bedroom, at 5 x 5 metres, stands out from the rest, especially with its walk-through wardrobe and ensuite with dual vanities and dual showerheads.

“Even the fifth bedroom, the smallest of the bunch, is larger than the average. It’s currently utilised as a home office, giving the owner a lot of versatility,” Justin says.

Providing even more space is the basement garage. In fact, it’s the pièce de résistance at an incredible 242 sqm. It fits eight cars and is currently outfitted with a gym.

“The amount of space down there opens up a lot of possibilities. Right now it’s a gym, but it could easily be set up as a teenager’s hangout space, a man-cave, a workshop, whatever the owner likes – and you’d still have room for cars!” Justin says.

Positioned just 100 metres from the edge of Yerrabi Pond, this property provides instant access to walking trails, bike paths and scenic views, while also being within minutes of the Gungahlin shops and plenty of local schools.

“This is a great suburb for raising kids, and this street in particular is very tightly held. You can walk to schools, the golf course is nearby, and there are plenty of green spaces,” Justin says.

“I’d go so far as to call it the best spot on the street. We expect this home to break the sale price record for the suburb.”

16 Bizant Street in Amaroo goes to auction on 1 March. For more information, call Justin Taylor on 0414 701 465, and be sure to check out all the hottest listings on Zango.
