Lovely home in the perfect location – the complete package, a real entertainer!
An imaginative and beautiful renovation has brought this vintage home in glorious Simpson Street into the here and now, delivering a sophisticated family home with a wonderful connection to the outdoors. The brick form is instantly recognisable and still houses its original retro 1960's number plate. There is the convenience of a concrete circular driveway and gated access to a carport and garage set deep within the block.
Inside, hybrid timber floors stretch underfoot; walls are crisp white and dark accents lend a touch of flair. The expansive living area connects directly with the spacious dining area and magic kitchen that is finished in sophisticated notes of midnight black and warm timber, with just a hint of brushed brass. There are banks of cabinetry, a long island bench with a hidden power outlet and a large awning window that opens, connecting to a generous outdoor style room. This way food and drinks can be passed back and forth, perfect for daily life and entertaining whilst creating an extension of your living space.
The master bedroom is a flexible affair, delivering a duo of bedrooms that share a contemporary ensuite bathroom. Think master combined nursery, fourth bedroom or home office. Ideal for a secluded master wing with a dreamily over-sized walk-in-robe…the choices are all yours. There are two additional bedrooms with both featuring built-in-robes for seamless storage. The family bathroom delivers a relaxing freestanding tub and frameless rain shower. Both bathrooms are finished in floor-to-ceiling marbled white tiles, with warm timber notes and dark floors, echoing the kitchen. There is also a convenient third toilet within the internal laundry and easy access back and forth from the deck, making it perfect for guests.
The home is an easy stroll to multiple playgrounds, Majura Primary School, and the fabulous Watson shops. The brilliant new adventure playground next to Technology Park is amazing and perfect for the kids and adults for hours of endless fun. You are also not far to Dickson shops, host to an array of international cuisines. Majura Nature Reserve is nearby, and the home is just a short drive from the Braddon precinct, ANU and the CBD. Convenient to a mix of private and public schools, the Australian Catholic University and close to transport, including the light rail, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
