With astounding garaging space spanning two separate sheds, the extensively renovated property at 5 Alba Place, Melba is a car lover’s dream.

Large living spaces.

Impressive street presence.

Selling agent Michael Braddon, from Blackshaw Gungahlin said the garaging had been specifically added to the home by the current owner during the renovation eight years ago.

“The garaging is amazing,” Mr Braddon said. “The triple garage underneath was done in 2013 as part of the renovation and not long after they did the garage to the side as well.”

Set at the end of a cul-de-sac on a large 930sqm block, the five-bedroom builder’s own home spans 213sqm. It has a galley-style kitchen with a butler’s pantry and a secondary living room, which has been transformed into a theatre with a projector, 2.4m x 1.5m screen and in-built ceiling speakers.

Outside, there is a swimming pool, four-person spa and an alfresco deck with a gas bayonet for the barbecue.

Security has been well-considered with a back-to-base alarm system, doorbell camera and security camera system, while creature comforts are catered to with a ducted vacuum, ducted gas heating and an open fireplace.

“It’s been fully renovated so there’s two good sized living areas, a new kitchen, new bathrooms and five bedrooms,” Mr Braddon said. “To get that much land is not easy to come by. There’s so much going for this home.”

He said the Melba market was highly sought-after.

Large and bright.

“The Melba market is very strong at the moment. There’s been a couple of properties sell over $1 million in the last month in Melba, which were a bit of a surprise based on recent sales. The reason being Melba has some good schools.

“I’m a bit biased because I grew up in Melba, but growing up in Melba is just fantastic for kids. It’s predominantly families in the area and there are some great local shops too, so there’s plenty to like about it.”

The property goes to auction on Saturday 14 August at 10am and Mr Braddon expects it to fetch more than $1 million.
