High on one of O'Malley's exclusive hills with sweeping vistas over the Woden Valley, sits the impressive and ultra-private, Kingsgate enclave.
This gated and highly secure compound is home to 10 executive townhouses and number 4 has come onto the market with the promise of high-end living, spectacular views and expansive living spaces.
Its approach is hallmarked by minimalist, but effective landscaping, contrasted by hand-set, natural stone retaining walls.

The first surprise is the formal lounge and dining room that approaches a generous 90 square metres, an appropriate setting for a wide variety of entertaining - family, friends, business, government or diplomatic. This spacious rooms also leads onto the terrace with similarly amazing views.

An impressive galley-style kitchen follows, highlighted by Caesar stone benchtops, Bosch appliances, walk-in pantry, concealed dishwasher and breakfast bar. This overlooks a family room that's perfect for casual dining and relaxing. There’s access to a central, north-facing terrace.
The sleeping wing contains three bedrooms. The master has huge, fitted walk-ins, an ensuite with double vanity and built-in bath, and its own private balcony with views over the Woden Valley. Bedrooms two and three have their own ensuites with walk-in showers and built-in robes.
