Ainslie ACT 2602

Classically combining wide-reaching space, timeless elegance and a superb inner-city address, this extended and renovated 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom heritage cottage offers a family-friendly lifestyle where character is a constant and convenience is at your doorstep.

Set on a sprawling 933m2 (approx.) allotment, the home strikes a harmonious balance, inspired by the understated yet captivating Tocumwal design of yesteryear, and the current contemporary interiors. Upon elegant verandah entry, discover a variety of versatile living spaces, with the light-filled layout offering privacy and retreat for the whole family.

Enjoy formal living and dining rooms, and a Caesarstone-topped kitchen and meals area with entertainers' island bench, high-end Electrolux stainless-steel oven, gas and electric cooktops, LG dishwasher, and a large pantry. A superbly sunlit family room is positioned on a sunken level towards the rear of the property.

Outdoor entertaining will become second nature with a paved and sheltered alfresco at your disposal, while a multi-purpose room comes complete with built-in robes and a bathroom. This extra addition would work well as a home office, delight an older teenager or use it as an artist studio, just as the currents owners have.

All four bedrooms are generous in size, serviced by built-in robes and a pair of deluxe bathrooms. Sympathetically renovated, comprehensive features include a convenient study, separate laundry and WC, double garage plus carport, substantial attic storage featuring a ceiling ladder, period picture rails and shiplap panelling, alarm system, low-maintenance garden and yard with shed, in-slab electric heating, and a gas fireplace in the lounge room.

Located on a positively peaceful street, handsomely lined with established holly oak trees, walk to Wakefield Gardens, Edgar's Inn, and quality supermarket shopping with city-bound buses and light rail both nearby. Providing the perfect fit for families keen to enter the rewarding Ainslie market, inspect with complete certainty!
