Enjoyed and loved by the one family for close to 60 years ? a real treat!

Precisely crafted timber joinery in warm honeyed ash abounds within this classic Hackett home. The solid brick build, brimming with history and story, lavished with love for decades, and boasting a wonderful drift to a fabulous sheltered alfresco room.

Lovingly renovated and preserved, home to Jean and Bruce for close to sixty years, this Brennan Street residence is truly special, with its beautiful age-old gardens and wonderful balance between the old and the new. A beautiful renovation honours the history of the home while ushering in a sumptuous, contemporary flair?perfectly suited to modern family living. A long veranda welcomes you to the timber front door set with sidelights in vintage patterned glass.

Underfoot as you enter are striking hardwood ash floors, these are carried throughout the home reaching to meet the crisp fresh walls. Slightly higher ceilings and patterned cornices marry with the expansive glazing, as the original casement windows capture pretty garden views. The home has been opened up and extended with a sleek as new kitchen and bathroom. The combined living and dining is flooded with northern light and merges to a generous rumpus, so there are plenty of engaging spaces for the family to both come together and enjoy relaxed time apart.

Sleek white cabinetry meets stone worktops and bronzed glass splashbacks, within the immaculate kitchen. Storage is plentiful and includes two pull-out food and oil pantries, and banks of drawers. There is a breakfast bar for easy gathering and glass slider that opens to an airy outdoor room. Here an insulated pitched roof and long garden views evoke breezy summer gatherings, epic celebrations with family and friends. Roll down blinds seal the room from the elements so outdoor living can be enjoyed all year round.

A slender hallway ushers to three charming bedrooms, each with vintage custom timber robes and integrated dressers, in signature golden ash. We adore the original hardware hand painted a soft bronze, and the dreamy leafy views. The opulent family bathroom is finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling with wall hung timber vanity, walk-in-rain shower and bathtub. A separate laundry with second toilet is accessed via the bathroom and opens directly to the outdoor entertaining room, which is perfect for guests.

Pathways edge neatly clipped lawns as garden beds teem with a mix of mature plantings. There is a walled barbecue area, garden shed, cubby house and raised vegetable beds. It is the kind of relaxed backyard where you are happy to potter, as the kids play and explore. The whole garden and outdoor room, in peaceful rhythm with the beauty of the home, fostering family moments to treasure and a shared collective joy.

There is a circular drive, gated carport and garage/workshop beyond. The front garden teems with camelias, roses, sea daisies and large sculptural cycads that Jean planted from seed. A dotting of mature trees, including golden ash, dogwood, Japanese maple and traditional Irish yew, creates a natural enclosure, privatising the home from the street. Brennan is a quiet loop street, bordered on one side by playground and directly across from the expanses of Mt Majura bushland reserve.

The home is handy to the fabulous local shops plus the dynamic precincts of Dickson, and Braddon whilst also being amenable to the charming inner-north centres of Ainslie, O'Connor and Lyneham. Close to transport and a variety of schools, including the local Blue Gum school, pre-school and many others. With easy access to the CBD, Braddon and the ANU, whether it be by car or bike they are not far away. Come and enjoy the friendliness of the community, as locals ourselves we know what it's like to be part of something special.
