6 Officer Crescent

Ainslie ACT 2602

Reimagined and extended with care, this four-bedroom home blends the warmth of heritage character with contemporary comforts. Ideally positioned at the foothills of Mt Ainslie, it offers the perfect balance of tranquillity and convenience. Just a short stroll from the beloved Ainslie shops, local primary school and within easy reach of the vibrant Braddon and Dickson precincts and the city centre.

The instantly recognisable storybook silhouette with pitched roofline and a shady front veranda sets a nostalgic tone that continues throughout. Inside, the thoughtfully reconfigured floorplan delivers four generous bedrooms, a welcoming formal lounge at the front of the home and an expansive light-filled open plan living area to the rear. The brand-new kitchen is a true centrepiece, complete with Miele appliances, dishwasher and abundant bench space flowing effortlessly into a spacious mudroom that doubles as a laundry and walk-in pantry and access of the carport straight into your new home.

Outdoors, the rear garden is a true highlight a beautifully productive haven featuring a thriving veggie patch, lemon, fig, olive, apricot, pomegranate and persimmon trees and even a greenhouse for year-round growing.
The low-maintenance landscaping includes a drip-irrigated front garden and minimal lawn, while regular seasonal pruning of the established hedges and trees is included in the rent. Whether you're pottering in the garden or relaxing under the covered patio with its own ceiling fan this outdoor space offers both beauty and function.

The home is not only charming but incredibly practical, with comfort-focused features like ducted reverse-cycle heating and cooling, updated insulation, double glazing to the rear extension and block-out window furnishings throughout. A 7.6 EER (energy efficiency rating) and a solar system mean significantly reduced energy costs, further supported by a heat pump hot water system and rainwater tanks for sustainable living.

Ainslie continues to shine as one of Canberra's most coveted inner-north suburbs, offering a rare mix of community warmth, natural beauty and urban accessibility. With leafy streets, strong local schools and a tight-knit village atmosphere, it's easy to see why families, professionals and creatives are drawn to this vibrant enclave. Weekend walks on Mt Ainslie, brunches at favourite local cafs, and a short commute to the city-life in Ainslie is as practical as it is picturesque.
