Amongst a glut of small apartments, this generous contemporary three bedroom townhouse is a refreshing and exciting proposition.

This well-kept secret, tucked away in an intimate complex of five, sits quietly amongst the popular suburb of Braddon.

The townhouse's leafy outlook, Northern aspect and spacious floorplan has visitors wondering if they're really just three minutes from the city.

When the owners first came across the townhouse they were immediately drawn to it - offering a unique combination of quiet, private living and the social metropolitan lifestyle of Braddon.

The home has a two storey layout which maximises its modest footprint. At ground level, the front door opens into a welcoming entry, beyond which a view to the living areas and garden beyond are visible. French doors from the living area open onto a leafy courtyard, seamlessly uniting the two areas into the perfect entertaining space.

The open plan kitchen, complete with gas top stove, stone benches and ample cooking space is a chef's delight and a perfect space to entertain the many guest that will want to visit.

Up a short flight of stairs are three bedrooms - the master bedroom is a King-sized suite filled with light. The room, which sits separate to the others with its own ensuite, offers an escape from the rest of the house with a lovely covered balcony overlooking the front courtyard garden and leafy street scape.

There's a lot to love about living here - taking a short stroll to the vibrant Lonsdale Street for your morning coffee, catching up with friends after work at one of the city's many quirky bars and indulging in some boutique shopping on a lazy weekend. Though, with friendly neighbours, a sunny garden and lots of living space you may also never want to leave.
