11 Piddington Street - friendly, fun and fabulous!

Escape to the Country in Canberra's inner north where you will find a sanctuary that has been loved and nurtured by the current owner for over 32 years. Situated on a 921m2 (approx.) block in one of Watson's best tree lined streets backing onto the glorious Watson reserve, is this much loved feel good three bedroom plus study home that will put a smile on your face. With all the characteristics of the early 1960's when this wonderful suburb was first established this funky soulful home has been a happy place both indoors and out with a wonderful serene setting that can be enjoyed by all.

Inside we have a freshly painted home with abundant light and a glorious north-facing living room overlooking the tranquil gardens, the original but very functional retro style eat-in kitchen provides all that you need with new double glazed windows to both of these areas giving you added comfort. Each of the bedrooms along with the study have their own theme, all which add to the character of this charming residence.

Now to the garden itself! Flushed with colour and containing an abundance of horticultural treasures, this garden is filled with unusual perennials, bulbs and shrubs as well as a variety of fruit trees. Rich organic soils will offer you the chance to become totally self-sufficient in the veggie department as soon as you move in. The sense of space and tranquility is tangible as you relax in this private haven that has been a labour of love for all these years. Step through the back gate where a world of possibilities are on offer with space for the kids to kick a footy, to the right you can take the path to Mount Majura nature reserve where as a left turn will give you an easy stroll down to the bustling Saturday Farmer's markets and a myriad of events that EPIC has to offer. Wander across the reserve and relax beside the delightful natural ponds or fulfil your artistic pursuits at the long established Watson potter studio.

As long term residents and agents of the area we can assure you that you will be welcomed to Piddington Street and the suburb with open arms, where the community spirit is immediately evident, whether it be having a coffee at the local shops or just a walk around the streets, you will feel at home.
