40 Cowper Street

Ainslie ACT 2602

The original footprint of the home cleverly offers a modern lifestyle through integration of original cottage and recent extension with north facing full length windows and doors to ensure winter warmth is captured while delivering connection to the covered entertaining area. The generous floor plan of three large bedrooms, flexible study/library, two bathrooms, and modern kitchen provide functional spaces for easy living.

The established gardens feature a towering rhododendron covered with large red blooms - reminiscent of early Canberra plantings. The large level allotment is perfectly placed for sun drenched kitchen gardens and chooks! The deep rooted lemon tree loaded with lemons, marks the building line of the extension, a tree too beautiful to lose defining the character of the block.

Cowper Street is possibly in the most central position, easily accessible to Braddon, Dickson shops, Ainslie shops, the Ainslie Football Club and the City - all just moments away. This is inner north living at its best.
