This spacious three-bedroom ensuite townhouse has a lovely contemporary feel inside and out and forges a wonderful connection to a choice of courtyards. Resting within a quiet street that culminates in parkland, the home is also delivers a dynamic inner north lifestyle. It's basically a haven away from the city, close to the endless walking trails that traverse Mt Majura, while also connected to all the enticements of the Dickson and Braddon precincts and just a short light rail ride to the CBD.

Bettie McNee is a quiet street edged with plenty of bays for easy parking. The home one of a neat row of townhouses, all smooth planes of off-white render, greened by trees and barely visible from the street.

Within bamboo flooring flows underfoot as light pours through glass sliders into the expansive living area that has the luxury of a relaxing courtyard at either end. The front courtyard is shady, enclosed by soft greenery, while to the rear, a big timber deck lets you bask in the northern sunshine. You can access the large double garage from here, with its auto-doors accessed via Mabel Miller Lane.

The living and dining area is lovely and private, despite its bold interplay with the outdoors. The large kitchen overlooks this excellent space, making for easy interaction with family and guests. Chic stone worktops in midnight black meet latte, tiled splashbacks and there are banks of storage in classic white. There is a big pantry and quality appliances, including a dishwasher from Fisher & Paykel.

Light fills the stairwell via that ribbon of windows, the eye instantly drawn upward to the high void. The whole of upstairs given over to three peaceful bedrooms with elevated leafy views. The main bedroom opens onto a private balcony, so you can step outside come evening or first light to greet the mountains. There is a big built-in wardrobe and an ensuite bathroom. Both additional rooms have seamless storage and centre around a family bathroom with a bathtub. The bathrooms are finished in the same soothing neutrals as the whole home, with floor-to-ceiling tiling and stone topped vanities.

Watson is a vibrant, inner-north suburb with great community vibes and fabulous local shops - enjoy great coffee, fabulous pizza at The Knox, or dine out at the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. The home is a nice stroll to Exhibition Park, host to the famous Farmer's Market. The Dickson and Braddon precincts, ANU and the CBD are all close to hand. A brand new, inclusive play space and recreational park has been a great addition to the area. The home is also convenient to a mix of private and public schools, close to transport, including the light rail, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
