3 Wybalena Grove,
Cook 2614, Australian Capital Territory

##Another Sold by Phyllis##

Surround yourself with the legacy and natural beauty of the award-winning Wybalena Grove with this rare freestanding home. An iconic development nestled amongst 30 acres of serene bushland, cleverly designed to intertwine privacy, community life, and sustainability, it's ideal for the first home buyer or downsizer seeking peaceful living in this 70s development.

High ceilings and full-length, wall-to-wall double-glazing create a light-filled feeling of openness in the split-level home, dissolving the boundaries between inside and out and filling the open-plan living area with the crisp morning scent of the native plants. The original kitchen sits on entry level, true to the era's craftsmanship and ready for a refresh when the time comes.

The timber floors and exposed brick continue to the two bedrooms, each with an unhindered garden outlook that makes you feel a world away from everything. The first is currently open to the living area to create a seamless sense of space, though a door could easily be added, while sliding doors to the courtyard warm the bedroom with sunlight. They share a modern bathroom with a convenient European laundry tucked in the corner.

Outside, a generous paved courtyard offers privacy, where high brick walls are softened by the established trees shading the pavers, and a back gate that opens straight into the reserve. At the front, a timber deck on entry offers a second welcoming space to relax.

The Grove is a tranquil community in the foothills of Black Mountain, with shared facilities including tennis courts, barbeque areas, and a wood-fired pizza oven. Aranda Bushland and Mount Painter Reserves are almost at your doorstep, while buses and the much-loved Cook shops are a short stroll for a coffee or local produce from The Cook Grocer. Jamison Plaza and the Belconnen Town precinct are also just minutes away. Iconic architecture and leafy surrounds - this is a rare chance to be a part of one of Cook's most cherished pockets.
