Last Listing description (November 2023)

There is so much to love about this freshly presented, Canberra red brick home, situated in a peaceful street, lined with Claret Ash trees, only a short walk from cafes and a light rail stop.

Timber framed windows, with newly painted exterior trim all around, and a covered front sitting area add to the strong first impression, complemented by neat lawns.

High raked ceilings through all living areas and bedrooms are a delightful surprise, and the interior has been refreshed throughout in neutral white. Brand new, quality carpet is laid through the lounge, dining room, hallway and bedrooms.

The welcoming lounge features a cathedral ceiling and is bathed in light from full length windows on both sides of the room framing a garden outlook, with a perfect north aspect to the rear. Comfort is assured by a gas wall heater and a reverse cycle air conditioner, and there is a slow combustion fireplace for winter ambience.

Also enjoying the sunny north aspect, the dining room offers a private outlook over the rear garden and a rose bush. It is easy to imagine a sliding door here leading to a future entertaining deck.

The bright eat-in kitchen is functional, with an electric stove and a pantry.

Raked ceilings to all four bedrooms enhance the sense of space. The master offers a built-in robe with a storage recess in two more bedrooms. The bathroom has the advantage of offering a bath and a shower, as well as a separate w/c.

Shrubs border the large level rear garden which is completely private and offers many possibilities.

The front sitting area is a lovely spot to enjoy the private garden outlook and visiting parrots on the mature crab apple tree.

The wonderful location is a short pleasant walk to light rail, Gang Gang caf at Downer shops, a limitless of choice of restaurants and shopping at Dickson, many sought after schools and the swimming pool!
