A fabulous inner north location, a soothing, easy-care lifestyle, a lovely immersion within tranquil gardens, and a development steeped in Canberra history. This delightful two-bedroom apartment captures elevated views and flows to a sunny balcony that celebrates afternoon light, sunset painted skies.
Set within the old Starlight drive-in cinema, complete with original and restored iconic signage, there is an emotive connection with the laid-back, lively spirit of times past. Everybody has a fond memory, from hiding in the boot, to first-dates or piling the kids in the car and heading out for a night beneath the stars and the big screen. Speakers were hung on the sides of classic cars and there was a heady combo of steamy windows, romance and popcorn.
Arranged in an open plan format and with a wall of glass sliders, the home is blessed by a warming light that reaches deep within. There is a nice combo of ceramic flooring and soft carpeting that stretches cosily across the living space. The easy spill to alfresco living conjuring images of relaxed gatherings with family and friends.
The kitchen occupying one corner, has an open sociability that is ideal for mixing with members of the family and guests, complete with an invitational breakfast bar. Finished in a light scheme with banks of storage meeting stone benchtops, the space exudes a graceful ease. Sleek stainless-steel appliances from Chef include electric cooking, a new oven and a brand-new dishwasher from LG.
A duo of welcoming bedrooms is sequestered beyond a slender hallway. Both rooms have built-in-robes for seamless storage. Large muntin windows welcome morning light and frame picturesque tree-top views. The master flows to a generous ensuite bathroom with a large walk-in-shower. There is also a family bathroom finished in a concordant neutral theme, with a relaxing bathtub and convenient integrated laundry.
The swimming pool sparkles among the parklike gardens, as flowering crepe myrtles and magnolias rise from strappy grasses, lavish plantings. Neat rows of white villas glisten in the sunlight and there is convivial neighbourly spirit?think families gathering pool side on hot summer days.
Despite the coveted inner-north locale the home is informed by the calm of nature and nudges the bush land of Mount Majura. Whisper close to the local EPIC markets, the dynamic Braddon and Dickson precincts and with transport at your door, including the light rail which whisks you straight to the CBD, the home both removes you from the hustle and bustle while connecting you directly with all the convenience and delights of the city.
Watson is a vibrant, inner-north suburb with great community vibes, fabulous local shops, plenty of playgrounds and parks and is surrounded by natural reserves. Enjoy great coffee, fabulous pizza at The Knox, or dine out at the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. A must see for those looking or a value for money entry into the inner north.
