Last Listing description (July 2024)

The social hub of this beautiful home is arranged in an open plan, drifting to a sunny terrace that is more akin to an outdoor room. From here you can purvey the deep garden courtyard, age-old street trees, in sun-dappled privacy. Within golden timber flooring meets white-washed walls in a Scandi inspired renovation that oozes soothing simplicity.

Graced with tranquillity and light, this elegant ground floor apartment has a wonderful ebb and flow, as airy spaces spill to outdoors. The home, wonderfully placed on a quiet leafy street, in the heart of the enticing inner north, moments from Lonsdale Street and within easy reach of both the ANU and the CBD.


Synergy is a boutique development with a contemporary low-lying form, with bold horizontal lines and striking geometric elements, combined with louvred panels. Deep gardens grace the frontage as a central path ushers to the entryway, framed by a shady portico.

There is a lovely refinement at work, a concordant paired-back materiality. Banks of crisp white cabinetry gleams white against softly hued glass splashbacks, as stone bench tops and stainless-steel appliances bring a timeless quality to the hardworking kitchen. Adjacent oak joinery floats within the cleverly incorporated office nook, perfect for study and working from home.

The bedroom connects to landscape, breezes and sunshine as glass sliders peel back to front terrace and garden. Large built-in-robes take care of seamless storage and there is a sumptuous new bathroom, finished in floor to ceiling tiling with an organic theme that marries soft neutrals, warm timber with crisp whites.

Throw in a European laundry, secure intercom access, basement parking with additional storage, and you have a relaxed, easy-care lifestyle that connects effortlessly to the best that Canberra has to offer.

Your life in Turner ?
Leafy and quiet streets to explore, eyeing the many fabulous established homes and gardens, strolls in Haig Park beneath the shady pines or exploring the many biking and walking trails in O'Connor Ridge and Lake Burly Griffin.
Eating, shopping, experiencing the many independent businesses seeded within the inner-north and the CBD. Walk to Lonsdale Street, perusing the shops, grabbing a coffee or a local wine from Black Hearts and Sparrows or dine at any one of the wonderful eateries. O'Connor shops are close by for bowls, hilarity and drinks with friends at The Ruc and a relaxed lunch at The Duxton. Explore the international cuisine of the famous Dickson precinct and perhaps a long brunch alfresco, at the iconic Tilley's.
Ditching the car and biking or walking to the CBD or New Acton. Jumping on the light rail and connecting with the metro city station, linking you to the whole of Canberra.
