Last Listing description (June 2016)

Tall oak trees form a breathtaking canopy along the length of Marsden Street, creating the attractive street-scape of a much sought after inner north location, the setting for this appealing three bedroom ensuite home. The 3.6 kW array of solar panels sit atop the generously proportioned home and currently return a massive 50 cents per kWh gross feed-in tariff. Facing north on a block of approximately 596 m2, the home is brimming with potential and has excellent street appeal. The welcoming entry opens to a light filled and spacious living room. This is warmed by a gas heater built into the structure of the original fireplace, which invites restoration to create a cosy focus and wonderful atmosphere to counter Canberra's winter. The dining area occupies a corner of this generously proportioned room and is bathed in natural light from a skylight. Stepping into the bright kitchen you will be impressed with its size. It is equipped with an upright stainless steel gas stove and Miele dishwasher, pantry and a handy breakfast bar. This room opens, via the laundry, onto a covered deck overlooking the garden. This private outdoor living space, graced by a white camellia, is perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The garden below has some imaginative elements, such as the cascading water feature and a sitting area which would benefit from some effort to restore the original inviting setting.
The master bedroom also enjoys the north aspect, while sliding glass doors provide access to the enclosed garden at the front of the property. An air conditioner ensures comfort year round. The ensuite bathroom has double vanities and there are three built-in robes. The main bathroom is in good condition and has a separate w/c. The two other bedrooms both have built-in robes, while the third bedroom also has an air conditioner and an outlook over the garden to Mt. Ainslie.

From the rear patio, steps lead down to a 4 m x 4 m, north facing, fully lined studio, which would make an excellent rumpus room or home office. Comfort is maintained by an air conditioner. Attached to the rear of the studio is a workshop and behind that, a lock up garden shed.
Car accommodation is provided by an enclosed double carport, with brick facade and there is additional parking on a gravelled area in the front garden.
Energy savings are guaranteed by the solar array of 15 panels. There is also a large rainwater tank (Slimline 2100) at the side of the property and a second, smaller one, sited unobtrusively at the front.
The location offers the best of vibrant inner north culture and amenities. It is close to coffee, restaurants and all other attractions of the thriving Dickson hub, as well as recreation facilities, including swimming pool, playing fields and the newly opened Next Gen sports club at the Lyneham Tennis Centre and nearby Yowani Golf Club. Sought after local schools are within walking distance and the ANU, University of Canberra and the Catholic University in Watson are all within easy reach. There are great bike paths into the City Centre and ANU.
Although comfortable as it is, this well-designed home, with a fantastic north aspect, will inspire a creative makeover to realise its outstanding potential, situated as it is, in a beautiful and peaceful street, in a superb inner north location. Be sure to inspect this weekend and imagine what might be.
