12 Verco Street, Hackett.

Backing directly onto Mount Majura Reserve, this substantial Hackett residence combines architectural scale, considered design and a remarkable sense of privacy across approximately 1,221sqm of landholding. An elevated front landing introduces established gardens and mature trees that create a natural buffer, while the grand entrance opens to warm, light-filled interiors. Three skylights draw natural light through the centre of the residence, complementing its generous proportions and carefully considered layout. The expansive kitchen, living and dining domain forms the centrepiece of the home, appointed with warm cabinetry, an oversized island and premium Miele appliances, including double ovens. Overlooking the landscaped backyard and elevated pool, it connects everyday living with the outdoors. A formal sitting room accompanies the ground-floor guest retreat, while a separate rumpus room provides additional flexibility. Privately positioned on this level, the substantial master suite features a walk-in wardrobe and ensuite with double vanity, complete with individually controlled heating and cooling. Upstairs, a custom-fitted study occupies the landing, alongside three well-proportioned bedrooms with built-in storage and study nooks, two extending to private balconies. A spacious bathroom with double vanity and separate toilet completes this level, creating a practical arrangement for family living. Further appointments include a ground-floor bathroom with bath and two-way access, a dedicated wine cellar, extensive storage and a generously appointed laundry. Ducted reverse-cycle heating and cooling, individually controlled across the levels, and solar further enhance everyday comfort and efficiency. Internal access connects the home to a substantial double garage with additional attic-style storage. The covered rear patio provides a sheltered connection to the landscaped grounds, where the elevated swimming pool and spa are framed by glass fencing. Established hedging, mature trees and lawn create a secluded outdoor setting, with direct access to Mount Majura Reserve extending the property into its natural surrounds. Positioned in one of Hackett's tightly held northern pockets, the residence offers convenient access to the Inner North, respected schools and Canberra's CBD. Substantial in scale yet considered in its design, this is a distinctive family home defined by flexibility, privacy and an enduring connection to nature.
