Tucked away and profoundly private, the home extends a rare quality of quietude and is enclosed by greenery and established easy-care gardens. A light drenched, open living area drifts to the delightful sheltered alfresco entertaining space, here you can enjoy relaxing and dining in complete privacy.

Invisible from the street, this beautifully accommodating three-bedroom ensuite home, is nestled at the back of a dual occupancy block with a long driveway leading to the garage and additional parking bay. Established trees shelter and shade and well clipped hedges immerse the home in a forest of green. The coveted inner-north locale extends a blissful quiet while being excellently placed close to parks, cafes and the buzzing night life of Braddon and the CBD.

Open and airy the home feels peacefully simple and authentic with its neutral palette, long elegant social space and nice circular flow to the kitchen. Full height sliders and large windows capture breezes from the fragrant gardens which gift a tranquil focal point. The flexible combined living, dining and additional sitting nook, allows for family members to be together and slightly apart, to celebrate, share and relax all in the one light drenched area. There is enough space here, to easily accommodate family and friends – dinner parties, informal gatherings, spilling into garden and the alfresco dining area.

The large modern kitchen is designed for the family who love to cook together with its spatiality and generous hardwearing black stone counter tops. A large window above the sink takes in views to the courtyard and banks of warm timber look cabinetry takes care of your storage needs. Sleek stainless-steel appliances add to the elegant, timeless appeal.

The bedrooms are private and restful, all with leafy outlooks. The master bedroom with ensuite and walk-in-robe, overlooks a delightful shade garden with a weeping maple and textural plantings, laid out beneath a magnificent oak. The remaining two bedrooms centre around a modern family bathroom with a tub and adjacent laundry.

The garage provides the option to be utilised as either a creative studio or secure parking with internal access to the home, depending on your needs. The timber doors can be flung open to sunshine and garden.

Downer is an established, family-friendly suburb, with ample green spaces and close proximity to the lively Dickson and Braddon precincts. The home is close to the Tardent St Playground and also within close proximity of the oval, where the kids and pets can run amuck. Downer shops are an easy stroll away, with local favourites including - Peter's Wine Shop and the Gang Gang Café and Bar. It is not far to EPIC and the Fresh Food Markets that are a weekly ritual for so many. The home is also convenient to the buzzing Dickson precinct, a mix of private and public schools plus public transport, including the light rail.
