28 Fairfield Street

Crace ACT 2911

Resting on a quiet, tree lined street, the home is one of a neat row of handsome townhouses. A layering of blockwork provides visual intrigue combined with splashes of colour, while a clever inverted wall, perfectly frames the entry. We love the shadow lines the slats in the window awnings make against the wall and the leafy dappling of shade across the front patio. It is an easy stroll to a variety of parklands and reserves and not far to the vibrant Gungahlin Precinct.

The kitchen is arranged in a galley style with a window wall at one end, flooding the space with natural light. Everything is at your fingertips as banks of white cabinetry and striking black worktops coalesce with black hardware, engendering timeless appeal. There is an adjacent powder room so nobody has to traipse upstairs, a large internal laundry and plenty of extra cupboards for storage.

The intimate zone is nicely sequestered on the top level, where three elegant bedrooms brim with ample storage and share a welcoming cosiness with soft carpet, peaceful elevated views. The master suite is a generous affair, with a wall of robes and an ensuite bathroom. Two additional bedrooms centre around a family bathroom with a relaxing bathtub. Both bathrooms are finished in crisp white set against earthy browns and both have large vanities for seamless storage.

Crace is a suburb of the Gungahlin district and shoulders Palmerston, Percy Hill, and Gungaderra Nature Reserve. The home is within walking distance of Crace Central offering a large Supabarn, independent stores and cafes, with local favourite including, The District Bar and Restaurant for a fab cous cous salad and award-winning burgers. The area is famed for its stunning natural surrounds and ample parklands. It is an easy walk to Hilltop Reserve and its playground and all the scenic trails of Gungaderra Reserve. Close to the thriving Gungahlin precinct, Lake Ginninderra, the UC, AIS and Canberra Stadium and a stone's throw from the inner-north suburbs of Lyneham and O'Connor, the home is also, a mere 20 minutes to the CBD.
