Auction 5:30pm Thursday 24 September
There is something instantly uplifting about the deep front veranda with its views across the leafy, wrap around gardens and the welcome of the carved front door in satisfying midnight black. This charming three bedder has a personality all its own, bringing together mid century character, big windows, vintage touches and playful modern updates.
Thoughtful improvements have elevated the home, with a perfectly considered palette of colour and detail that makes it feel polished, welcoming and ready to move straight into. The home opens to the north, where beautifully tended landscaping sets the scene for gatherings and long lunches amidst lush lawns and sprawling ground covers.
Set on a big corner block and surrounded by established trees, the home feels wonderfully private from the get go. A private driveway ushers to a double garage, and a garden path cuts through the greenery.
The exterior features textured render and sits slightly elevated among the trees. We love the decorative iron balustrade, the terrazzo tiled veranda and the big, welcoming foyer. These original touches give the home a distinctive mid century feel, while the clever updates introduce colour and personality without taking away from its original appeal.
This airy space perfectly divides the sleeping wing from the social spaces, adding a sense of openness to the home and serving up a clever storage nook. Decorative cornices and a mix of interesting light fittings add to the period charm and give each room something a little different.
Living, dining and cooking connect in a circular sweep as big windows welcome an abundance of northern and eastern light. The renovated kitchen combines crisp white with a touch of soft grey, creating a contemporary contrast to the home's vintage style. The cabinetry is seamless, the worktops lightly speckled, and the appliances are efficiently all electric. A big window sits above the sink, flooding the room with sunshine and allowing you to watch the kids at play while you do the washing up.
All three bedrooms have excellent storage and soft carpet to keep things cosy. The bathroom feels calm and bright, finished in white on white with a relaxing bathtub, wall hung vanity and mirrored storage cabinets. There is a separate toilet and an adjacent laundry, both with nostalgic mosaic tiled floors. The laundry delivers on both style and storage and opens directly onto the garden.
The back yard is a haven in its own right. Private, beautifully tended and opening to the north, it feels like a natural extension of the home. A broad paved patio creates an easy spot for outdoor dining and weekend gatherings, flowing onto an impressive sweep of lawn framed by layered greenery and sprawling ground covers. There is plenty of room for kids and pets to roam, while the established planting creates a leafy backdrop and a wonderful sense of seclusion. With gated access from the second driveway off Broadsmith Street, the garden is as functional as it is inviting.
The home is ideally placed, just a few steps from Scullin Oval, Primary School and Pre School. You can walk to Sweet Bones Bakery and Café for a great coffee and Cinnabon, or try local newcomer EASY BOY! for Vietnamese cuisine close to home. You can explore Pinnacle Reserve or head to the Belconnen precinct, choosing from a wide range of dining and shopping options, including the Capital Food Markets. The home is close to transport and not far from the Arboretum, GIO Stadium, AIS and UC. It is a mere 12 kms to the CBD
