#soldbyholly $1,625,000The historical charm of this sweet three-bedder engenders warm feelings of love and care. It reads as a safe haven from the nearby hustle and bustle, whispering promises of potential expansion to make the most of the north-eastern light. And the location is perfection -leafy street, handy to bushland reserve, easy stroll to the happenings of O'Connor Village shops, a stone's throw from Braddon and the CBD. Canberra reds curve underfoot, the path ushering past garden beds teeming with lavender, irises, roses. The classic brick form blushing and welcoming, as if it has a story to tell. There is a front patio so you can sit and smell the roses, watching life come and go along the leafy street.Within timber floors stretch to meet white washed walls, as each room unfolds with invitational charisma. There is a small foyer with a spot to hang bags and coats, so you can shake off the day and get on with self-care. Think curling with a book in the front living room, the comfy lounges arranged just so around the original fireplace, its timber mantle a home to favourite objects. Or entertaining with friends and family, the dining table set below the big window, the open plan nature of the whole room allowing conversations to flow.The kitchen has plenty of cabinetry in creamy white and a freestanding electric oven. This space merges to a large laundry, inspiring immediate potentialkitchen expansion or Butler's pantry. From here a door opens onto the endless rear garden, think flat lawns that seem to roll on forever. You can feel the potential hereone imagines a long gallery room, the new master sequestered at the northern end, and lots of glass sliders that spill to the newly landscaped gardens and sparkling swimming pool. All three bedrooms feel calm and embracing, perhaps it's the high ceilings, the elegant simplicity. Or maybe it's the large windows that invite garden blessings and natural light. The master bedroom has a wall of built-in-robes for effortless storage and all three huddle close to a family bathroom with a separate toilet. Westgarth is a peaceful street with shady street trees, and a mix of vintage and beautiful new homes.
