147 Goodwin Street

Lyneham ACT 2602

Known for its leafy streets, established trees and expansive green spaces, Lyneham is a popular suburb, handy to all the best that Canberra has to offer, while remaining grounded within old-school, suburban values. A bevy of unique, independent cafes, restaurants and shops are within easy reach and the home is a hairbreadth from the city centre.

There is a lovely simple, formal symmetry to the faade, with twin gable roofing and feature bay window offsetting the entry portico. A driveway leads to a double garage at the rear and there is off street parking to the front for three vehicles.

A gorgeous entry foyer ushers and invites, featuring original brick and panels of inset reeded glass. The introductory palette of black and white sets a moody tone, continuous and accentuated within the large open social arena, that occupies the ground floor.

The living, dining, kitchen features a charming bay window, with bespoke window seating, creating an intimate dining area with views to the street. Timber shelving is artfully composed around the exposed brick chimney and a clever study nook is recessed into the wall.

A new kitchen has been installed at the rear, illuminated by large timber window overlooking the garden. With striking combo of matt black cabinetry and pops of white, and plenty of luxe features - stone benchtops, double oven, stainless steel dishwasher - the space feels invitational, creative and robustly practical.

Upstairs, three generous bedrooms centre around the original family bathroom with tub. Private and sequestered this restful upper floor arena has lovely, elevated views across rooflines and treetops.

Raised vegetable beds, established lemon tree, gentle lawns and shaded, paved alfresco dining create the ideal space for relaxing, doing, celebrating with family and friends.

Lyneham is a coveted suburb situated in the heart of Canberra's dynamic inner-north, serving up a fabulous modern urban lifestyle. Ample green spaces, shared bike and walking paths, and beautiful street trees create a tranquil village experience just a stone's throw from the CBD and ANU. It is an easy stroll to the Dickson precinct with its array of international cuisine. Lyneham shops is close to hand, home to The Front gallery and caf, for great food and live music events and the famous Tilley's, for long brunches in the sun or Saturday Jazz nights. And not to forget, Choku Bai Jo/The Farmers Outlet at nearby North Lyneham and the Capital Region Farmers market down the road at EPIC. O'Connor shops are also handy as well as the dynamic Braddon precinct. The home is close to schools and transport, including the light rail.
