#soldbymcreynolds #soldbycrisWonderful duplex, bathed in abundant light! Walk to everywhere!A wonderful update has created a welcoming three-bedroom home, with a delightful connection to the outdoors. The whole home is light filled and further warmed by a mix of soothing mediterranean blues, golden timber and the charm of history. An important part of the architecture of old Canberra, this two-storey semi-detached terrace home, sits behind newly landscaped gardens edged in corten steel and feature a pittosporum hedge that will flourish over time, privatising the front yard. A large granite bay and driveway provides plenty of off-street parking with a single garage deep in the block, behind Colorbond gates.Inside easy-care floors stretch light underfoot, the welcoming foyer delivering a hidden powder room, so nobody has to traipse upstairs. Beyond, the open charm of the kitchen/combined family room is bathed in northern light. The expansive kitchen provides plenty of storage and bench space with the large windows allowing the whole space to enjoy a delightful outlook. From here you can step outside to the pleasant deck and enjoy that morning coffee while soaking up the sunshine.Concertina doors open onto the generous second living area and combined dining room, this is a great space. Walls are painted in a revitalising teal, accentuating the brick hearth, now set with a radiant gas heater. Living is arranged at one end with a large window providing peaceful views of the front garden and distant mountain. While the elegant dining space is framed by timber glass sliders, from here you can step directly onto a pergola covered deck. Old growth vines provide a natural shade and there are fixed timber bench seats to accommodate family and friends. Enjoy alfresco dining, taking in the large and private rear garden, with its high fences, plenty of lawn and raised vegetable beds.The original timber stairs are nice and broad, leading to the second floor and three generous sized bedrooms, all with elevated treetop views. There is space for a study nook on the landing where a window perfectly frames Mt Ainslie. The master bedroom has an excellent built-in-robe with both additional bedrooms also having terrific storage. The updated bathroom has the luxury of a bath, making it easy to cater for the kids. The central position of this inner north charmer connects you to the cafs, eateries and shops of Dickson and Ainslie and you are 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 the Dickson District Playing Fields beyond.
