2 Baines Pl, Lyneham is a 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom House. The property has a land size of 673m2 and floor size of 147m2. While the property is not currently for sale or for rent, it was last sold in July 2002.
Positioned on an elevated corner block enveloped by lovely gardens featuring mature azaleas and rhododendrons, life in this updated and extended 1960s home revolves around two inviting alfresco courtyards.
The smaller of the two services the huge lounge and nearby kitchen/meals area and provides a cocooning space well suited to morning coffee or weekend brunches. The other, discretely connected to the first, comprises a sunny north-facing terrace and a wisteria-clad deck abutting a rumpus room, creating unique options for larger scale, multigenerational entertaining.
The home's four bedrooms are also welcoming and distinctive. A lofted main suite reached via a contemporary floating staircase is a true retreat, with a leafy dual aspect, modern ensuite and spacious walk-in wardrobe.
On the ground floor, two bedrooms have easterly streetscape views, inbuilt shelves and a large built-in wardrobe. The fourth bedroom to the rear would make an ideal teen retreat or home office with its dedicated study nook and built-in cabinetry that could accommodate a bar fridge.
Other versatile facets of this home include a large walk-through linen cupboard that acts as entry to the laundry, and a garage conversion that provides scope for use as a gymnasium, or yoga studio with the additional benefit of two large under-house storage areas.
Located seconds from Magpie Hill parklands and a few minutes' stroll from Canberra O'Connor Ridge walking trails, nature is right on the doorstep here, but there is also plenty of urban amenity within a few minutes' drive including schools, universities, hospitals, sports complexes, a golf course, the dynamic Lyneham shops and the CBD.
