Fadden ACT 2904

Directly opposite nature reserve and only moments from Wanniassa Hills walking trails, this split level home sits in one of Fadden's more tightly held pockets. Elevated on a generous 801m block, it captures open skies and long range views toward the Brindabellas.Homes in this stretch rarely change hands. When someone stays for decades, it usually says something about the position.Inside, raked ceilings and exposed timber beams give the home warmth and scale. The split level design creates natural separation between living and accommodation, while large windows pull in light and greenery from every angle. Original timber flooring and classic detailing retain character without feeling dated.Fresh paint, new carpet and updated lighting mean it is move in ready, with clear scope to modernise or add your own touches over time.The living zone flows easily to a functional kitchen with island bench and generous storage. Step out onto the elevated deck and the outlook opens wide. Entertain here. Unwind here. Watch the light shift across the valley as the day winds down.Both bedrooms are oversized with built in robes, the main bedroom particularly generous for a two bedroom home. The two way bathroom functions as an ensuite and includes a bathtub, updated vanity and full height tiling, while a separate toilet and rear access laundry add everyday practicality.Evaporative cooling, solar panels and solar hot water reflect thoughtful long term upkeep.Outdoors, established gardens create privacy while maintaining a sense of openness. There is space to garden, extend or simply enjoy the block as it is. For a younger couple entering the market, or a downsizer wanting room without losing connection to nature, the balance here feels right.Having been tightly held for many years, this is now an opportunity to secure a reserve side position in a pocket that locals rarely leave.The Location Opposite nature reserve Easy walk to Wanniassa Hills Nature Reserve Fadden Primary School within approx. 1 km Caroline Chisholm High School approx. 2 km Holy Family Primary School approx. 2 km Wanniassa School Senior Campus approx. 3 to 4 km Mary Mackillop College approx. 4 to 5 km Erindale College approx. 3 km Erindale Shopping Centre approx. 3 kmThe Perks 801m block with established gardens Split level design with raked ceilings and exposed timber beams Freshly painted with new carpet and updated lighting Original timber flooring and classic detailing Elevated rear deck with Brindabella views Oversized main bedroom with built in robe Built in robes to both bedrooms Two way bathroom with updated vanity and bathtub Separate toilet and laundry with rear access Solar panels and solar hot water system Evaporative cooling Opposite reserve and close to walking trails Owned and cared for by the same owner since 1995The Numbers Living: 102.20m Block: 801m Land Value: $494,000 2025 Rates: $3,233 p.a. approx.
