24/2 Sexton Street

Cook ACT 2614

This gorgeous two-bedder has been beautifully renovated and artfully combines a cool mid-century modern vibe with contemporary elegance. Ideally placed within a whisper quiet development, at the end of a private road, the home reads like a bushland escape. Yet it is an easy stroll to the bustling Jamison Centre, Aranda Shops and just moments from all the enticements of the Belconnen Precinct.

Neat townhouses sit side by side, behind well-tended gardens, No.24 with the luxury of common gardens on one side. Extended brick walls add to the privacy and there is a driveway ushering to a single garage with internal access. The homes red brick form is punctuated by handsome new black framed windows and sits behind a swell of pretty gardens. Throw in timber front door, sidelight set with amber vintage glass, and you have quite the welcoming entry sequence.

Within there is a wonderful feeling of transparency, as both social spaces champion vast glazing's that welcome light and landscape. The elevated front living room framing the myriad of plantings and shady trees that populate the frontage. We love the lofty openness of this space with its half walls and timber ledges, gifting spots for curated display.

From the living area, you step down to the kitchen combined dining space, which spills to the back courtyard. A lovely modern kitchen in one corner, all white on white, with banks of cabinetry and a breakfast bar for relaxed gatherings. There are quality appliances from Miele and Blanco and a lovely conversational mood, perfect for entertaining.

Glass sliders can be left open, welcoming breezes and extending the dining space to greet bushland vistas and paved alfresco living. There are high privatising walls and a side gate, connecting you straight to Dexter Street Neighbourhood Playground and the green commons that stretch all the way to Aranda and Black Mountain Reserve.

The sequestered master bedroom has airy ceiling heights and a large window that captures distant views of the mountains. There is a built-in-robe for seamless storage and a renovated ensuite, simply appointed in whites and soft neutrals.

Ideally placed on the opposing side of the home, the second bedroom enjoys a natural elevation. The walls are painted a soothing lilac and there is plenty of built-in-storage. Adjacent sits a spacious family bathroom finished to exacting effect - floor-to-ceiling tiling in elegant white, earthy ceramic floors and a full-size bathtub for deep relaxation. There is also a large rain shower and a wall hung vanity that introduces a warming pop of timber.

Cook occupies a leafy corner in the Belconnen district and is flanked by reserves. Boasting thriving community gardens, parkland, Mt Painter reserve, walking and biking trails, it is a mere 8 minutes' drive to the Arboretum. There is easy access to Jamison Plaza, Belconnen precinct, and Aranda shops. The home is also close to transport, schools, the AIS, Bruce Stadium and the UC. And only 13 minutes' drive to the CBD and the ANU.
