3/43 Stockdale Street

Dickson ACT 2602

Ideally placed in the heart of the sought-after inner north, the home is moments from the bustling Dickson and Braddon precincts, a heartbeat from the CBD. Yet all around, a rare immersion in bushland gardens, as grasses, native ground covers, bottle brush and tea tree hedges edge meandering paths and corrugated iron sheets are assembled in sculptural walls.

Elegant interiors combine with low impact design to deliver a comfortable, eco-friendly way of living with a whopping 8.0 EER. Double glazing, enhanced insulation and on-site composting with shared greenhouse and vegetable gardens gift a sustainable lifestyle, encouraging you to live lightly on this earth.

Within it is all polished hardwood floors as an organic scheme of stone and timber coalesces with soft white walls. A sweeping dining, kitchen and living is arranged in an open plan with wall of bankable glazing that opens to a private sunny garden, enclosed by native hedges and bright flowering bottle brush.

Northern sunlight brightens the social arena, with central kitchen a dream for meal making and communing with family and friends. A breakfast bar is a lovely gathering spot, as stone worktops combine with stainless-steel appliances from Bosch, banks of crisp white cabinetry with a splash of opalescent blue.

Timber stairs usher past geometric papered wall, to two peaceful bedrooms, both with built-in-robes for seamless storage. Bedroom one draws light and treetop views into the space via clerestory window and is adjacent to a roomy family bathroom. The master bedroom frames a silvery grove of birch trees via a bank of casement windows and flows to ensuite bathroom. Both bathrooms glisten with walls of rich midnight blue offset by soothing notes of soft grey.

The home is a few steps from Hope Street Playground and Blue Gum Preschool. It is an easy stroll to the famous Dickson precinct for shopping and choice of international cuisine. Lyneham and Dickson wetlands, Hope St Playground, Ainslie Oval, Dickson Playing Fields, and Jandura Park are all close to hand and there is a choice of public and private schooling. Close to transport, the much-loved Ainslie shops and Mount Ainslie reserve, the home is a stone's throw from the dynamic Braddon precinct, the CBD, and the ANU.
