If you have an affinity for city living in a quiet suburb, this small complex of 13 townhouses is an ideal spot.
Its proximity to nightlife in Dickson, Braddon, Civic and New Acton means you can walk or cycle to shops, cafes, cinemas, restaurants and theatres.
The complex is beautifully situated on the corner of two tree-lined streets, with Sullivan's Creek a mere 150m away. Follow the walking and cycling track through the parkland alongside Sullivan's Creek, and it will take you to the Australian National University in less than 10 minutes by bike and about 20 minutes on foot.
For all your main amenities, O'Connor shops are just a five-minute walk away if you don't want to make a trip to Dickson or Civic. If an afternoon or evening drink is on the agenda, the Duxton, Polish Club and Turner Bowling Club are all nearby.
The complex is small enough to feel like a community, with a spacious, shaded common property garden hidden behind the building and regularly maintained by a local gardening company.
The lawn, shrubs and trees are irrigated with rainwater collected off the roof and stored in a large tank, which also supplies all the toilet cisterns and most outside taps.
Three compost bins collect the kitchen and garden waste from the 13 units, and the rich compost is then available for residents to use for pots or patio gardens.
Unit 9 itself has an established vegetable garden in the common area in front of the property, which, after six years of adding compost produced on site, it has produced fresh organic tomatoes, pumpkins, zucchini, beans and herbs.
The two-bedroom unit 9 is compact but spacious, easy to keep clean and maintain, and has a private courtyard behind it for alfresco entertaining – or you can move through the gate into the more extensive common garden beyond. Complete with an open plan living and dining space, a functional kitchen, study area, and private access to the two balconies via the bedrooms, this unit encompasses everything from convenience to functionality and comfort.
The executive committee of the body corporate is actively engaged in maintaining and improving the property through its strata management company and, over the last few years, has increased its funds to over $100 000 to make some significant improvements soon, such as repainting the whole complex and relaying the concrete paths around the property.
