This leafy two-bedder has a greenhouse vibe, as epic glazings float you among the treetops and double height ceilings gift a limitless feel. The home overlooks the historic Haig Park, easily balancing the energy of the city with a peaceful botanical immersion. It is an easy stroll through the parkland to the buzzing happenings of the Braddon precinct and the endless excitements of the CBD.
This light filled apartment sits on a quiet street, within a boutique complex of nine, known simply as Zinc. There is a wonderful art deco flair to the façade, with its corner windows giving just a hint of curvature and its captivating linear cut-outs. We love the sectioned windows, sleek balconies, and the pair of grand old maples that shelter and shade.
Easy-care timber laminate flooring stretches underfoot and walls are finished in soothing whisper white. The eye is drawn upward to the endless height of the ceilings and there is a continuous connection to green landscape that surrounds the home. Ideally conversant with the open plan living and dining, the newly renovated kitchen is arrayed neatly in one corner. Banks of crisp white cabinetry and speckled stone worktops meet kit-kat tiling and quality stainless-steel appliances get the job done. Think easy gatherings, a joyful spill to private balcony, a blessing of natural calm.
The beautiful nursery has a vast window that frames a pink flowering blossom tree and captures the age old pines that populate the park. The second bedroom, equally sizeable and used as the main bedroom is distinguished by its glorious clerestory and ribbon windows, that gift the space with golden light. Both bedrooms have ample built-in-storage and connect to a modern bathroom with a frameless glass shower and seamlessly incorporated laundry.
Private landscaped common areas and sparkling pool, provide a spot to gather, fostering community and creating a lovely and serene escape, right in the heart of the city. Step outside and you are greeted by quiet tree-lined streets, and the nearby happenings of Braddon by day or by night. The thriving, eclectic urban culture, a haven for expressive cafes, restaurants, bars, boutiques. This dynamic, central locale places you within walking distance to the CBD, ANU, Melbourne Centre, New Acton precinct and Ainslie shops. This whole inner-north area is synonymous for an amazing array of eating, drinking, relaxing, pampering, exercising and entertaining experiences. Throw in ample green spaces, walking and biking trails, established trees and gardens, and you have an enviable city/village mix. The home is also close to transport including the light rail and metro city station, connecting you to the whole of Canberra.
