Last Listing description (March 2023)

Renovated to be a comfortable living space, 32 Padbury Street was made for an indoor / outdoor relaxing lifestyle. Its worth noting that the original home was built with 4 bedrooms, so it's fair to say this is not your average 2 bedroom house. On first inspection, its street presence is established with hedging and mature gardens that wrap right around the home offering complete privacy. The garden is thoughtfully designed to create a tranquil and serene atmosphere that is perfect for relaxation and contemplation or for entertaining. Mature plantings include large Sasanqua Camelias and a productive fig tree which create a corridor for many species of native birds.

Beautiful bamboo flooring greets you as you step inside, as do the two large North facing living areas, one of which can be divided by adding a partition wall to create more separation, or even the 3rd bedroom. The central, fully renovated kitchen overlooks the back deck and garden and has everything you need to cook up a feast while connecting with family or guests. The kitchen also has a Velux skylight which can be opened up or closed off via remote. The dining area leads directly to the rear deck or you could easily move out to the spacious paved BBQ area in the back yard.

The bathroom, has been modernised to offer floor to ceiling tiles, built in storage, vanity, Japanese bath tub & semi frameless shower. You're going to appreciate every moment in there, especially in winter, thanks to its under tile heating and double glazed window.

Conveniently located just 300 meters from Dickson Town Centre, this property is perfect for anyone who loves to be in the heart of the action. The Town Centre is home to a swimming pool, library and an array of shops, cafes, and restaurants, making it the perfect destination for those looking to indulge in a delicious meal anytime of the day or night. Also close by is the sporting precinct of Southwell Park and Yowani Country Club. With the light rail just a short walk away, you can easily access the City or Gungahlin for work, shopping, or entertainment.
