1 Claxton Crescent

Lyneham ACT 2602

The broad, elevated front terrace adds to the street appeal, complemented by attractive gardens, and brick paving leads to the wide front steps. The north-east aspect invites sunlight to pour into living areas, front terrace and master bedroom over the cooler months and large windows frame a private outlook over gardens and treetops to Mt. Majura and Mt. Ainslie.

The formal lounge leads to the dining room, where a sliding door opens onto the broad, elevated front terrace, which maximises the scenic outlook. Attractive slate flooring extends from formal dining into the spacious casual living area and hallways.

The modern kitchen features a vast area of white stone benchtop and stone splashback, an IAG stainless steel oven, gas cooktop and dishwasher. There is a large pantry, many drawers and cupboards. The adjacent laundry also offers generous storage, which is found throughout the home.

Casual living has a continuous indoor/outdoor flow, from the meals area onto the front terrace, while the family room opens onto an enormous, paved entertaining area, sheltered by a covered pergola. The design makes for relaxed living and entertaining on any scale!

The generous master bedroom features a walk through dressing area with built-in robes and vanity, leading to the separate shower and w/c. The wide window frames a restful outlook to Mt. Majura. Striking parquetry flooring features in the oversized second, third and fourth bedrooms, all fitted with built-in robes. These are served by the new main bathroom, featuring a deep bath, shower and a separate w/c.

Downstairs, a spacious fifth bedroom, home office or rumpus, features beautiful bamboo flooring and a separate entrance onto the front of the property. Adjacent is a new bathroom and the internal access to the large double garage. This has workshop space at the rear, one auto door and access to a generous storeroom.

With no lawns to mow, the gardens around the home are easy care and a delight to explore, with four plum trees, an apricot, fig, orange and feijoa, as well as a raised veggie bed, many herbs and varieties of hardy lilac and callistemon, supported by a large water tank.

The location is peaceful and convenient with dog walking trails on nearby Lyneham Ridge, and close to North Lyneham shops. A single bus will transport you to the City or Belconnen. Primary and high schools, Lyneham and Dickson hubs, and Farmers' Markets are all within easy reach, as are tennis, hockey and swimming facilities!
