This beautiful three-bedroom home, located on sought-after Wakefield Avenue, offers the perfect country oasis in the city. Set within the historic Wakefield Gardens precinct, this charming property blends serene garden living with unbeatable urban convenience.


The home is embraced by lush native gardens at the front and an impressive array of vegetable garden beds and fruit trees at the rear-ideal for green thumbs and lovers of fresh, home-grown produce. A canopy of mature kiwi vine shades the rear deck, offering the perfect space to enjoy your morning coffee or an evening wine as the garden blooms around you.

Inside, you'll find a thoughtfully maintained home filled with warmth and character. Recently polished, the original timber floorboards glow under the natural light that streams through large muntin timber windows, offering stunning views of the surrounding greenery and providing a storybook feel throughout the home.

The separate laundry with an additional toilet adds practicality, while the large family bathroom features a full-sized bath for a relaxing soak.

Famously a part of Walter Burly and Marion Mahony Griffin's original, garden city design, Wakefield Gardens is a beautiful loop Street that encircles parkland. The home is within walking distance of the bustling 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.
