This warm and cheerful family home is distinguished by the surprise of its enormous wrap around gardens, extending the lived experience to embrace the joy of nature and gifting ample room for the kids to romp and play. Arrayed across two levels, this three-bedder gifts a choice of social spaces while privatising the intimate wing upstairs. A gorgeous renovation has imbued the house with thoughtful touches, pops of happy colour.
Perfectly placed at the end of a boutique development, the home enjoys privacy and pedestrian entry via shared parkland, enclosed by green walls and dotted with leafy trees creating a tranquil nook. The home is handy to the local Ainslie shops and surrounded by green spaces, including the bushland trails of Mt Ainsliethink endless hiking, think kid's riding their bikes in Haig Park. It is mere moments to the happenings of the Braddon hub and an easy stroll to the CBD.
Informing it all is an easy-care lifestyle, as a lovely balance of light filled social spaces flow to outside. We love the sheltered entryway, the millennial pink front door giving way to a sunny open plan kitchen and dining area. Walls of glazing open to a sun warmed patio, curving expanse of green lawns, adding to a distinct feeling of lived serenity and making for quiet the relaxed entertainer.
The kitchen is a bright pop of sky blue with smooth white stone worktops to match the fun textured splash back. A long peninsula is softly illuminated by a trio of glass pendants and provides a spot to gather, allowing small hands to help and family conversations to flow. Family perfection is taken care of via a tonne of storage and quality appliances, including a dishwasher from Miele.
Beyond the kitchen lies a sweeping second living area that includes a dining space. A wall of glass sliders open to the abundant rear garden, perfect for casual entertaining and for the easy flow of daily life. The grounds read like a gift waiting to be discoveredpaved alfresco stage, timber walkways, rustic artisan shed, walls of green and endless flat green lawns. There is so much space here, it feels like a country estate, a true escape from the nearby hustle and bustle.
The ground floor is complete with a laundry and separate powder room, so nobody has to traipse upstairs. While the second level is made cosy by warm carpets and large windows that welcome glorious light. The master bedroom spills to a north-west facing, private balcony, so you can step outside and greet the glory of the day. There is a walk-in-robe with custom shelving and an ensuite bathroom that delights with its splash of mosaic tiles in sunshine yellow.
Two additional bedrooms, both with excellent storage, centre around a family bathroom with a bathtub. Both bathrooms feature the same, singular glass pendants as the kitchen, lending a soft ambient glow and quiet the funky design thread.
The home is within walking distance of the much loved Ainslie shops, home to Edgar's gastro pub, the award-winning IGA and hatted Pilot restaurant. Moments from the independent restaurants and bars of the Dickson and Braddon precincts, a stone's throw from the city, the location is highly coveted. Many of Canberra's best schools are at your doorstop and the ANU is not far. The home is close to transport, including the light rail which whisks you straight to the CBD.
