Last Listing description (July 2019)

Ideally set, north facing to the rear, this charming Canberra redbrick home is a gem.

Set behind mature plantings, the home is well presented with a fresh neutral decor and a sense of space and light that provides a striking first impression.


The roomy eat in kitchen is a conducive gathering point for preparing and sharing meals and discussing the day's events.

The generously sized living room is bathed in natural light. A focal point is the French doors, leading to a stunning new timber entertainment deck, which adds a sparkle to the home. This is guaranteed to be your vantage point for relaxing with family and friends, while over-looking the easy-care gardens, and watching your vegetables grow!

The bedrooms are light and airy and furnished with quality carpet and modern blinds. The master bedroom has a wall of built-in robes and the others offer ample space. The bathroom has been refreshed and there is a separate toilet room.

The enormous laundry could be utilized for further storage or holds potential for a study nook.

The rear garden is secure which makes it perfect for your pets, or children, while the single metal garage provides comfortable accommodation for your vehicle.

Whilst enjoying the peace and serenity of this lovely home and surrounds, it is easy to forget that this brilliant location is so central, being just a short stroll along shaded streets to coffee at the renowned Downer Gang Gang cafe, or the buzz of the Dickson centre.

An even bigger draw-card is the recently opened new light rail route, which is a short walk away at the end of Swinden Street. From the local station, you can be whisked into the city centre, or Gungahlin.

A selection of well-regarded local schools and colleges are within easy reach.
Nearby both Mt Ainslie and Mt Majura beckon, with the promise of enjoyable bush walks or mountain biking and there is a network of bike paths which also offer a short trip meandering through surrounding suburbs and into the Central Business District.

Located conveniently close to the Australian National University, University of Canberra and the Australian Catholic University, there are also many parks and ovals nearby.

Just move in and enjoy living and entertaining in this gorgeous home!
