Superb value - three beddie for the price of a two!

This relaxing and quiet urban retreat offers a lovely open plan living area that flows directly to the northern courtyard. A paired back neutral scheme of crisp white and soft grey enhances the Zen like tranquillity. And the locale is ideal, at the foothills of Mt Majura, nudging the reserve, yet moments from all the enticements of the inner north and just a brisk light rail ride away from the CBD.

The kitchen, neatly housed in one corner, has a lovely open conversational connection with the dining and living arena ? perfect for togetherness and entertaining. Softly marbled black counter tops meet a white tiled splashback, and there is plenty of white cabinetry for seamless storage. A mix of quality appliances from Bosch and Fisher & Paykel get the job done, making family meals and dinner parties a breeze. Glass doors make the most of the sunny northern courtyard, the whole open arena fresh and bright, newly painted, with brand new soft carpets to keep things cosy.

Three bedrooms centre around a generous family bathroom and separate powder room. Each bedroom has a built-in-robe with the master offering a wall of mirrored storage, so there is a place for everything. The bathroom is finished in fresh white, with a ribbon of glass mosaics and there is a relaxing bathtub.

There are ample visitor parking spots and a private driveway that ushers to a remote-control garage with the convenience of internal access.

The Fair is an excellent development with neatly stacked Gabion boxes edging the road, defining the development from the wide-open expanses of the bushland reserve of Mt Majura. Whitmore Street is a quiet street, lined with low-level homes, all with front gardens. There is a strong community vibe with a street library and productive vegetable garden for all to share. There is also a community centre, playground and a BBQ spot, so you can get together with neighbours or friends and enjoy the natural surrounds.

Underpinning it all is the lifestyle:
Stroll to Watson shops for great coffee, fabulous pizza at The Knox, or dine out at the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. Or rise early on Saturday for a bounty of fresh produce from the Famer's Market at Epic. Perhaps a pottery class at the Potter's Society? Or explore the myriad of boutique shops, cafes and eateries at the buzzing Braddon Precinct. Dickson is not far with the brand-new Dickson Village and the partially completed DKSN precinct, offering sleek office facilities and a mix of boutiques and eateries. There is the famous Dickson pool for summer lap swimming and of course, easy access to a myriad of green spaces including the Watson Woodlands and epic views from Mount Majura.

A brand new, inclusive play space and recreational park is forthcoming in the area and the home is convenient to a mix of private and public schools. Stroll down to the light rail stop and be whisked to the CBD and the city metro station, linking you to the whole of Canberra.
