Last Listing description (March 2026)

#soldbyholly $1,080,000A thoughtful renovation feels perfectly in-tune with the natural and peaceful ease of this lovely three-bedder. Arrayed across two levels, the home drifts to private courtyards on two-sides, serves up delightful bathrooms and a chic, contemporary kitchen with banks of seamless storage. We love the palette of timeless greys, crisp whites, the threading of mosaics. And we adore the golden timber floating floors and the indoor-outdoor lifestyle, think gathering beneath the shade of a grand olive tree or dining alfresco on the extended deck, overlooking the pretty back garden.And the locale is sublime city end of Ainslie, an easy stroll to Ainslie shops, the Braddon precinct and the CBD. The long driveway, both avenue onto the home and ready access to a double garage. There is a peaceful surrounding of parklands and the ever-present charm of so many old-world homes, churches and leafy gardens.The kitchen opens to a deep front courtyard with high garden walls and that magnificent and bountiful olive tree. A central island cleverly includes a stone topped table, for relaxed gathering and meals. Stone worktops, seamless white cabinetry and warm timber shelving come together in sophisticated elegance. The splashback is an elegant textured grey, and the appliances are timeless stainless steel and include a dishwasher. The downstairs powder room is an elegant mix of colour, pattern and timber. A circular mirror sits above the wall hung vanity, illuminated by LED lighting so it glows like a moon. "damn, you look good" is etched within the mirror's surface, a fitting mantra and summation of the positive, playful vibe that imbues the entire home. The rear of the ground floor is given over to a generous social area that opens to embrace the deck and garden. This light filled north facing room serves up plenty of space and easily accommodates a big dining table beneath the twin pendants and comfortable lounges arranged just so. The deck has been extended and is the perfect stage for restorative natural immersion. One imagines daily cuppas, long lunches and dinner parties as the light fades. Upstairs is given over to a cosy intimate wing that houses three welcoming bedrooms. The master bedroom spills to a balcony, so you can step outside and float amidst the landscape. There is a walk-in-robe and an ensuite bathroom. Bedroom two has a built-in-robe and both additional bedrooms capture light and leafy views. Both bathrooms are fully renovated and finished to perfection, with floor-to-ceiling tiling in soft white, patterned geometric mosaic floors, generous timber wall hung vanities and sleek matt black hardware.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 sublime. 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. features..beautifully renovated three-bedroom townhouse in coveted Ainslie.privately placed within a small development of just six located at the rear of the block away from surrounding streets .all the townhouses within the complex are owner-occupied.light filled and spacious.north facing to the rear.easy-care and very quiet .sought after locale within the coveted Ainslie village, moments from the local shops.floating timber floors.beautiful contemporary kitchen with stone worktops, island with meals table, banks of soft close storage and stainless-steel appliances including electric oven, 90cm gas hob and integrated range and a dishwasher from Fisher & Paykel.glass doors opening to a large front courtyard with high garden fences, shady olive tree.large north facing living area with glass sliders opening to an extended deck and pretty rear gardens.renovated downstairs powder room with timber wall hung vanity, LED illuminated mirror and tessellated floor tiles.internal laundry neatly tucked away within the entrance foyer .three bedrooms on the second level.soft carpeting to upstairs.north facing master bedroom with private balcony, walk-in-robe and renovated ensuite bathroom .bedroom two with built-in-robe and leafy views.bedroom three with leafy views .beautiful family bathroom with bathtub and rain shower, .all three WCs finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling with pretty tessellated floor tiles, timber wall hung vanities and matt black fixtures.combo of sheer blinds and block-out curtains upstairs.ducted gas heating and evaporative cooling.linen cupboard.under stair storage.instant hot water.double garage with auto roller door.close to multiple parklands and a short stroll to Ainslie shops .coveted inner-south locale, close to a variety of schools, Braddon, Dickson, and the CBDFINE DETAILS (all approximate): Living size: 115 m2 (approx.)EER: 6.0 Build year: 2002StrataAdmin fund: $585.82 pqSinking fund: $511.25 pqTotal: $1,097.07 pq Rates: $3466.12 paLand tax: $4180.45 pa (investors only)UV: $359,100 (2025)Number of units in complex: 6Rental Opinion: $900 p/wThe information contained in this advertisement is derived from sources we deem reliable.
