This is a wonderful opportunity to secure a ground-level unit in the highly sought-after Pines complex, in the fabulous inner north suburb of Lyneham. The complex is revered for its leafy, natural surrounds, bush landscaping, established pines and towering eucalypts, attracting spectacular birdlife and creating a tranquil space.
This beautiful 2-bedroom unit, lived in and loved by its owner for over 20 years, has been lovingly maintained and upgraded over the years.
A standout feature of this home is its two large courtyards, providing wonderfully private outdoor living spaces, perfect for entertaining or just spending time outside. The front courtyard features a majestic loquat tree, which bears delicious edible fruit. The deep overhanging balcony above provides shelter and privacy – the perfect space for relaxing with a morning cuppa. The spacious back courtyard is paved with natural limestone, creating a light, bright space and reflecting light into both bedrooms. Two raised garden beds provide the perfect opportunity to grow your own veggies, or create your own Floriade!
Abundant morning sun spills into the north-facing open-plan living space, which connects to the front courtyard. The updated kitchen boasts ample storage space, with additional overhead cabinets and shelving. The elegant bathroom includes a small bathtub, and a European laundry with shelving for extra storage.
The first bedroom includes an expansive built-in wardrobe, with sliding doors to maximise space. The second bedroom includes built-in adjustable shelving, again with sliding doors. Security mesh doors and window screens throughout allow for natural light to shine in and fresh breezes to flow in summer, all while maintaining a secure environment.
The convenience of this location is second to none. Public transport is at your doorstep. Just a 1-minute walk to the light rail station, and a 6-minute commute into the city – it doesn't get more convenient than this!
You have your choice of excellent primary and high schools and colleges, as well as easy access to Canberra's top 3 universities. Other nearby amenities include the Lyneham sports precinct, EPIC, the northside farmers market and the AIS arena.
For lovers of nature and the outdoors, O'Connor Ridge, Mt Majura, Mt Ainslie and Black Mountain nature reserves are all nearby, for walking and biking, and the peaceful Lyneham wetlands are just a short walk away.
Those who love to socialise can get involved with local community activities such as the annual Light Up Lyneham and Lunar New Year festivals, enjoy Dickson's vibrant café scene and multicultural cuisine, and meet friends at the iconic Tilley's for long brunches and Saturday Night Jazz.
