Last Listing description (February 2017)
The current owner purchased this gorgeous 3-bedroom townhouse because of "its space and storage, as well as the superb location" and those fundamental attractions are still just as valid today.
Sited at the entry of a small complex of just 8 two-storey dwellings, it's prime position in the group gives it the lion's share of views to the east as well as a lush green border surround and a remarkably large double garage.
Stepping past the security-door threshold, the home's designer has ensured an inspired use of every square centimetre of space, including two discrete living areas that could easily be adapted to suit your preference for formal/casual dining, family relaxation or surround-sound entertainment. The kitchen sits centrally towards the rear of the home, servicing the family room and its wide balcony. It has its own easterly views through the kitchen window and features a Miele dishwasher, Fiori rangehood and lots of storage.
The ground floor also includes a laundry and powder room as well as two separate storage areas for clean, dry archiving and surplus items.
Upstairs, the home's three bedrooms are arranged in a neat semi-circle, each with built-in robes that span an entire wall; the master bedroom includes a balcony and ensuite. The home's main bathroom completes the upper circle, providing a shower, bath and wide vanity.
Outside, beyond the rear balcony, is a grassed area at the side that can be used for clothes drying in the northern sun as well as secure child's play.
Factor in the ducted gas heating, near-new paint and carpet throughout, NBN connection, Foxtel-ready connection, easy-care courtyard and the professionally-maintained complex gardens too; but don't forget its close proximity to Yerrabi Pond, the Ngunnawal shops, sports-fields and Gungahlin's major shopping precinct.
Overall it's a recipe for wonderful family living and a tempting opportunity for investors who want to attract great tenants.

Owner's comments:
The home was originally bought to get a foot into the market and for its abundance of space and storage, and its superb location.
I bought in the area because of its close proximity to the Ngunnawal Shops and sports fields, Gungahlin Shopping Centre and specialty shops, the ability to take morning runs and evening walks around Yerrabi Pond and close proximity to Amaroo and Ngunnawal schools and future Amaroo Shops.
