219/253 Northbourne Avenue

Lyneham ACT 2602

The open plan living merges to an "indoor" balcony, with bankable windows that can be opened to painterly views, glorious summer breezes through the scented leaves of the trees. Part sunroom, part winter garden or office nook, this indoor-outdoor room extends the living space, and is large enough to lounge or dine alfresco, while also accommodating a home office, discretely tucked away in one corner.

Washed oak laminate collides with crisp white and stone worktops, as a mirrored splashback reflects the play of light and shadow. Neatly tucked at the western end of the space, the kitchen has a conversational outlook across the dining and living area and beyond to the arresting, leafy vista. There are quality appliances from Fisher & Paykel and a seamless design that maximises every inch of space for storage, including cabinetry on both sides of the peninsula.

Glass sliders open onto a private balcony, adding depth and specialness to the master bedroom. It receives a wealth of light and drifts to a luxurious ensuite bathroom. The second bedroom is nicely sequestered at the front of the apartment and sits adjacent to a large second bathroom with a seamless European laundry. The bedroom is informed by a floor to ceiling window that fills the space with natural sunlight. There is the lovely play of angles and textures, framing the landscape, pleasing the soul. Both rooms have ample built in storage and both bathrooms are finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling in the palest of grey, with pops of oak and smooth stone countertops.

Rising above Northbourne and situated at the annexe of Dickson and Braddon, the home is also whisper close to the CBD. This enviable locale places you amongst some of the most expressive eating, drinking and shopping experiences that the city has to offer. The ANU, Melbourne Centre, New Acton precinct and O'Connor shops are all close to hand. Throw in, ample green spaces, walking and biking trails, established trees, and gardens, and you have an enviable city/village mix. The home is also close to transport including the light rail and metro city station, connecting you to the whole of Canberra.
