Ainslie ACT 2602

Within, easy-care timber laminate flooring has the softness of oak and stretches to meet walls in gallery white, perfect for chosen artwork. A lovely attention to detail has created niches of interest the foyer/mudroom softly illuminated by a Verner Paton Flowerpot Pendant and the study nook with recycled timber benchtop by Thors Hammer and seamless storage. A gas fireplace provides radiant heat to gather around within the living area with its large window framing a painterly garden scene. While to the south, bifold doors tip this large, elegant space into nature, and broad deck sheltered by a high brick wall.

The kitchen is an all-white galley affair with quality appliances from Smeg and an integrated Bosch dishwasher. We love the openness and conversational spirit with the dining space and the breakfast bar seating for relaxed gatherings. Outside entertaining is made easy with recycled timer servery by Thors Hammer and adjacent internal laundry also has a powder room so nobody has to traipse upstairs, perfect for family life and entertaining.

As you climb the stairs various vistas emerge within the windows including a framing of Mt Ainslie. There is space for a sunny study nook on the landing and the floors are warmed by brand new woollen carpet. All the bedrooms have excellent built-in-storage, two with Nobo panel heaters and large windows that float you among the treetops. The family bathroom is all crisp whites with a pop of beautiful sage green.

Timber decking provides a link between the main home, the studio and garage. Japanese maples inform the transition creating a Zen Garden which feels in-line with the large airy studio space, with its raked ceilings and minimalist simplicity. Think fourth or guest bedroom, creative workplace, yoga/meditation spacethe options are endless.

One imagines spending whole summers within the peace of the back garden, raised vegetable beds teeming with kitchen bounty, the kids happy within the cute cubby house or tumbling on the soft lawns sheltered by crepe myrtle, pear, persimmon and the abundant peach tree. Think long lunches extending into the evening, family and friends gathered around a table set for plenty, the home aglow and open so you can glide back and forth from pristine home to perfectly curated green oasis.

This central position connects you to the cafs, eateries and shops of Dickson, Ainslie, Watson and Downer, ass well as the walking trails of Mt Ainslie. It is not far to Braddon's vibrant scene, serving up a cornucopia of independent eateries, bars and shops. The home is handy to Dutton Street Playground and the picturesque Dickson Wetlands, merging to Dickson District Playing Fields beyond. It is and easy stroll to several schools, including Dickson and Daramalan College. The home is also close to transport including the light rail, whisking you straight to the CBD and the ANU.
