Gowrie ACT 2904

Tucked away in a secluded, private nook, this comfortable family homestead is superbly positioned opposite local schools and shops, with major retail, dining and lifestyle amenities within easy reach.The traditional faade is framed by an expansive verandah, a peaceful setting for quiet contemplation, a morning coffee, watching the weather roll in and greeting passing neighbours.At the heart of the home, the kitchen integrates perfectly with the casual living area, where cork flooring and a slow-combustion fireplace create a warm, inviting hub for family life. Whip up a comforting roast on a cold winters evening, pour a glass of red and settle in beside the fire as its glowing embers set the scene for relaxed conversation and lingering yarns.A dedicated dining room provides a more traditional setting, while the separate lounge offers a calm escape to switch off, unwind and rejuvenate.The bedrooms provide peaceful retreats and are complemented by the practical appeal of an updated bathroom and the authentic charm of an original ensuite.I invite you to visit this character-filled residence, one that glows with personality, originality and homestead warmth, and superbly positioned in an exceptional North Tuggeranong location.HIGHLIGHTS:-homestead-style home featuring a covered verandah, classic timber shutters and cedar windows-generous family room with the insulation and warmth of cork flooring-dedicated dining area-private lounge room-original kitchen with dishwasher-updated bathroom with heat tastic-original ensuite-separate toilet and original laundry-built-in robes in bedrooms one and two-ducted gas heating-slow-combustion Turbo Ten fireplace-wall-mounted reverse-cycle unit in the dining/lounge room-paved, covered outdoor entertaining area-detached brick double garage-additional parking in front of the garage-garden shedTHE LOCATION:Gowrie Shops 0.7kmChisholm Shopping Centre 3.2kmErindale Shopping Centre 2.0kmTuggeranong Hyperdome / South.Point 5.2kmWestfield Woden 10.8kmCanberra Hospital 8.0kmCanberra Airport 18.0kmFadden Pines Childrens Playground 1.8kmGowrie Primary School 0.3kmGilmore Primary School 2.4kmHoly Family Primary School 0.9kmFadden Primary School 1.5kmChisholm High School 3.0kmLake Tuggeranong College 5.5kmErindale College 2.2kmMarist College Canberra 10.0kmTHE STATS:-block: 6 section: 231-block size: 756m2-EER: 2-year built - 31/8/1981 - (Certificate of Occupancy issued) -land value: $476,000-living area: 134.08m2-double garage: 35.75m2-land rates: $778.75 per quarter-land tax: $ 1,383 per quarter (only paid if leased) -rental appraisal: $700-$720 per week*All measurements and values are approximate.PLEASE NOTE: As of 1 July 2026, Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing (AML/CTF) legislation was introduced into the real estate industry.
