6/59 Lowanna Street

Braddon ACT 2612

The Avanti complex sits behind well clipped hedges, sheltered by mature silver birch and flowering magnolias. The form is all smooth render, with glass balconies, a central spine and dramatic skillion roof. There is an airy transparency to the entry foyer, with glass doors allowing sightlines to the shared gardens that lie at the rear.

Soft eggshell whites, warm earthy browns, pops of timber are featured strongly in the kitchen, echoed in the luxury bathrooms, creating a polished simplicity and cohesion. Engineered oak floors flow underfoot, as high ceilings lend an airy spaciousness. Walls of glazing invite light deep into the open arrangement. It is easy to imagine spending whole summers dining within the sheltered alfresco room, its high green walls gifting complete privacy, natives harmonising with the grandeur of the towering black walnut street tree.

The kitchen runs the length of one side, with a floating island lending a touch of the French provincial, its open shelves curtained by fabric, the worktop a robust butchers block. Banks of cabinetry in soft cream meets terrazzo stone counters and cinnamon tiled splashback. There is a place for everything, including a nifty pull-out-pantry and adjacent European laundry.

The intimate sleeping zone is nicely sequestered by a slender hallway and houses two tranquil bedrooms that float within the soft foliage of dreamy gardens. Both rooms have built-in-robes and a nice adjacency to luxury bathrooms. Walls of glass sliders open to an elevated terrace, stepping down to a beautifully landscaped courtyard. Neatly clipped topiary, strappy grasses, mop top robinia and the reaching arms of an old growth tree create a shady enclave. In one corner a concrete bench floats beneath a vine draped arbour - the go to spot for quiet refuge, on the hottest of summer days.

Lowanna St is perfectly positioned for an endless selection of cafes, bars, restaurants while offering the restorative peace of ample green spaces, including all the biking and walking trails of Mt Ainslie. The Braddon precinct extends a vast array of independent stores, great hospitality venues, bakeries, yoga studios? There is the famous Asian and international cuisine of the Dickson precinct and not far, the village charm of Ainslie shops with its much-loved IGA and gastro pub. The CBD is whisper close and with buses and light rail at your doorstep you can ditch the car, easily exploring the whole of Canberra.
