This one bedroom abode includes textured concrete ceilings, gorgeous casement windows and glass sliders that open to a private patio, floating you among leafy gardens. Housed within the Nevada building, and featuring gorgeous architectural elements, the building and the apartment has stood the test of time.

Resting on a quiet, tree-lined street, directly across from parkland and a few steps from Watson shops, this charming one-bedder, is encircled by mature shrubs and soft lawns. Large windows welcome the outside in, saturating the spaces in a golden light. The clean lines and elegant simplicity fosters serenity, promoting laid-back, easy-care living.

Internally there is a wonderful quality of light throughout as timber framed windows and sliders welcome sunshine and sky. The social arena is arranged in an open plan with the kitchen in one corner with cabinets in rich teal, offset by crisp white open shelving for display. There is a freestanding oven, gas cooking, large full-height pantry and space for a small table. The adjacent living area reads more like an outdoor room, as walls of glazing connect you with landscape and open air.

The bedroom is illuminated by a floor to ceiling window that also captures the colours and textures of the garden. A built-in-robe takes care of storage while adjacent the bathroom is finished in crisp white tiling. Wall hung open shelving is perfect for an array of indoor plants, think bathing within the relaxing tub surrounded by a botanical oasis.

Embedded within an exciting urban lifestyle within the coveted suburb of Watson, famous for its fast evolving, urban growth, inner-north locale, the home also extends a quietude and welcoming community vibe. You can hear the kids at play across the way at the local primary school and there are a myriad of public green spaces and walking trails to explore.

Enjoy great coffee, fabulous pizza at The Knox, or dine out at the Filipino eatery, Lola and Lola. It is not far to Dickson shops, host to an array of international cuisines. Majura Nature Reserve is nearby, and the home is an easy drive to the Braddon precinct, ANU and the CBD. The home is also convenient to a mix of private and public schools, close to transport, including the light rail stop on the Federal Highway, linking you to the metro city station and the whole of Canberra.
