Fabulous entry level opportunity!

There is a lovely feeling of privacy and serenity to The Pines as neat rows of townhouses hide behind brush fencing and mature trees shelter and shade. Within soft greys coalesce with white washed walls, as open plan living merges to leafy courtyard. An artful reimagining has created a warm and inviting contemporary home while preserving the unique and welcoming charm of yesteryear.

Resting on a quiet loop street, this gorgeous two bedroom townhouse is part of The Pines, a quaint and peaceful low-level development in the heart of the inner north. Moments from the energetic Dickson and Braddon precincts, the locale is superb. Shared walking and biking paths wind their way through green spaces, and it is a leafy walk to Lyneham shops and the famous Tilley's Divine Caf? Gallery.

A brush gate provides entry to the leafy domain as paving is edged by mature trees including the grey green foliage of an olive tree. There is a lovely mid-century appeal to the form as floor to ceiling awning windows combine with weatherboard, the wide fascia of the small porch and simply pitched terracotta coloured roof. We love the combo of eucalypt green and terracotta, echoed in the colourway of the carport and storage room.

The open kitchen, dining and living area takes in warming natural light and frames views of the sunny north-east courtyard. A long textural painted brick wall is the perfect backdrop for chosen art and a sleek renovated kitchen occupies one corner a with central island providing extra bench space. Banks of crisp white cabinetry meets swirled grey worktops, and white subway tiling is continued all the way to the ceiling, enhancing the sense of space. This carefully considered hub has a friendly appeal, with a place for everything, and sleek stainless-steel appliances easily catering for family meals and entertaining alike.

The southern end of the home houses two tranquil bedrooms that overlook a wall of evergreens. The master bedroom has a large built-in-robe with multi-panel sliding doors and large windows framing golden wattles. The second bedroom has open shelving for curated display and a built-in-robe for seamless storage. Both bedrooms sit adjacent to a stunning family bathroom - floor to ceiling tiling combines with back to wall tub and chrome fixtures as concordant soft greys and crisp white deliver a luxury finish.

The easy drift to courtyard gifts a wonderful indoor-outdoor connection, extending the social space to a nourishing oasis. One imagines pots brimming with herbs, lemon tree?perhaps a wall of sweet smelling jasmine. This remarkably private haven is perfect for sun drenched gatherings with family and friends, sheltered barbecue lunches.

The central locale of this coveted inner north suburb gifts an exciting urban lifestyle, connecting you to the independent eateries and bars of O'Connor shops, and the Braddon and Dickson precincts. It is a scenic walk to Lyneham shops and the iconic Tilley's for long brunches and the occasional live Jazz on Saturday evenings and The Front for great coffee. The light rail is at your doorstep whisking you easily to the CBD and the metro city station connecting you to the whole of Canberra. Ample green spaces, shared bike and walking paths, wetlands, and established street trees create a tranquil village experience in the heart of the city.
