#soldbymcreynolds #soldbycris $462,000

There is a lovely sense of seclusion, the home being located at the back of a very pleasant development, rising from pretty, manicured gardens. Occupying the top floor, the home is distinguished by its two-sided outlook, capturing both treetops and a serene garden enclave. Living is an open plan arrangement that flows directly to the deep balcony.

Large windows and glass sliders frame nature on two sides and there is an ideal drift to alfresco living. Light bounces off eggshell white walls, the neutral scheme enhancing the felt sense of space and coalescing with the soft grey carpet. The generous open plan living and dining, houses a large kitchen in one corner.

Banks of nougat cabinetry provide a spot for everything, as generous worktops gift maximal space for cooking. There are quality stainless-steel appliances from Fisher & Paykel and perfect open sociability with the dining and living space. A long peninsula gifts breakfast bar seating, fostering togetherness. Think cooling cross breezes, a poetic leafy immersion and effortless entertaining with family and friends on the balcony floating amidst the treetops.

The master bedroom is sequestered to the east, with a large window capturing Mount Majura. Informed by sunrises and magical morning light, the room has a large mirrored built-in-robe to keep things soothingly minimal. The second bedroom or home office also has excellent built-in-storage and overlooks the balcony, with its leafy screen of mature trees.

The family bathroom combined laundry is finished in crisp white tiling with earthy ceramic floors, and feature ribbon of mosaic tiling in organic hues. Also notable is the large lockable room that sits adjacent to the front door, providing additional secure storage.

A private driveway ushers past the relaxed fa?ade - pitched rooflines, mix of raw brick, smooth render and pops of Colorbond in Wallaby grey. The home is nicely placed, adjacent to a leafy green space, the frontage dotted with white crepe myrtles and purple leafed plums. There is a dedicated carport and a partly open-air stairwell, with high clerestory window, welcoming a golden light.

There is a peaceful remove to Tay Street, which loops past an array of low-lying residential developments and neat rows of houses. Resting at the foothills of Mount Majura, this secret spot belies its locale within the vibrant inner north. Despite the hush and expanse of the nearby bush, the apartment is brilliantly positioned to take advantage of a plethora of boutiques, cafes and eateries all whilst being within close proximity of Dickson, Braddon and the CBD.

Enjoy great coffee and a fabulous pizza at The Knox, or dine out at the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. The home is a nice stroll to Exhibition Park, host to the famous Farmer's Market. A brand new, inclusive play space and recreational park is forthcoming, and the home is also convenient to a mix of private and public schools, close to transport, including the light rail, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
