Nestled in an elevated position, this charming 3-bedroom home offers a serene setting with peaceful treescape views. The generously proportioned, well-maintained interiors offer immediate comfort, with scope for those looking to add their personal touch. This home perfectly balances comfort with opportunity.
A shield of low maintenance native plantings in the front garden screens you from the outside world, while attracting local birdlife you can watch from bed. Renovated in keeping with the mid-century character of the building, the living room has natural light from three sides with views into tree tops and out to the Brindabellas.
The sunny spacious kitchen, with gas cooktop, electric double oven, Bosch dishwasher, coffee nook, and generous storage includes a meals area that is ideal for casual family dining. The adjacent formal dining room leads to a lovely north facing deck, surrounded by treetops in the warmer months and a sunny aspect in winter, perfect for entertaining or relaxing. An additional low maintenance composite deck to the west of the living room is a very pleasant spot for enjoying glorious Canberra sunsets.
There are built-in wardrobes to two of the three bedrooms. A deep linen press in the hallway is supplemented with generous cupboard space in the laundry.
The secure backyard is a highlight, with a large lawn for children and pets to play. Low-maintenance native plants and mature fruit trees add charm. The trees currently hold a pair of hammocks, creating a perfect outdoor retreat.
Solidly built with a hardwood frame, an old school heavy gauge metal roof, and oversized box guttering, they really don't build them like this anymore. This roof has been resilient to major hailstorms in recent years. A discreetly positioned rainwater tank offsets your water bills in summer. The 5KW solar power system will help with your electricity bills and the 9KW reverse cycle split system air conditioning provides energy efficient heating and cooling, with the added benefit of pollen filtering for allergy sufferers.
Both the garage and carport lock via remote control. The garage has space for racking, as well as workshop space at the rear to encourage your creative spirit. Massive under-house storage offers convenience and practicality. There is also a driveway accessible storage room, perfect for bikes and garden tools.
