Spacious, cleverly designed and move-in ready, 20 Stopford Crescent is a four-bedroom, three-bathroom property, perfect for a family looking for an entertainer’s home.

What immediately makes an impression about the property is the amount of space afforded to the family. Across two floors the property features a large family room, dining room, meals room, a downstairs rumpus, indoor sauna and a storage room.

“The sheer space on offer is quite extraordinary. A family pining for more room will find what they want here and it’s not space for its own sake either, the design is very considered,” McIntyre Property Group sales agent Colin McIntyre says.

“For example, on the top floor, the kitchen and living spaces are set in the centre, with the main bedroom at one end and the other two beds at the other, providing the owner of the home with privacy.”

The main bedroom features a window nook, a walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite with double vanities.

In addition, the main bedroom connects to a multipurpose room, currently configured as a study but which could easily be set up as a nursery, home office or workout space, adding greater flexibility to the home’s design.

Families who love having a crowd around will find this property to be an entertainer’s paradise, with a pool, covered pergola dining area, large verandah and an outdoor spa on the pool deck.

“The current owners have really enjoyed being able to bring friends over and the kids especially get a lot out of being able to host get-togethers,” Colin says.

The indoor rumpus area means that it’s easy to host more private social events.

“The property is quite versatile and it really suits just about any kind of entertaining. The outdoor pergola is great for pool parties, the rumpus is good for movie nights and the meals room, with its large windows and high ceiling, lends itself to dinner parties,” Colin says.

Entertaining is a breeze with an exceptional kitchen, featuring stone benchtops, a large freestanding oven and cooktop, dishwasher, wine fridge, a double door pantry and a breakfast bar.

“The kitchen is timeless both aesthetically and practically, it just works seamlessly within the space,” Colin says.

That sort of thoughtfulness in the kitchen applies to the rest of the home, which has been built to a very high standard.

“The property was certainly built to last and it has plenty of inclusions which make daily life easier, like underfloor storage, a double garage, off-street parking, heating to the pool and a slow combustion fireplace,” Colin says.

Located on a quiet street in Fadden, the property provides a family with excellent access to prestigious local schools.

“Fadden is particularly sought after and easy access to schools like Trinity and St Mary MacKillop College make it ideal for parents with school-age kids,” Colin says.

The elevated position of the street means the home has great views of the Brindabella Ranges.

“The owners tell me that the sunsets up there are amazing, best viewed of course from the massive verandah,” Colin says.

Bringing together indoor and outdoor entertaining, endless space and the kind of amenities that help a family truly thrive, 20 Stopford Crescent is a dream for families looking for that next step in property.
