$1,400,000+
Set within a sought after O'Connor street, this spacious five bedroom home is full of original charm, generous living areas and exciting potential. Built in the late 1950s and extended twice over the years, the home unfolds across two levels, offering a versatile layout with plenty of room to make it your own. Slate floors, exposed brick and a striking stacked stone feature wall bring warmth and texture, while large windows welcome natural light and garden views.
The home has an appealing mix of red brick and weatherboard, with a broad driveway leading to a double garage set towards the rear of the block. An established tree provides a leafy welcome to the front garden, before arriving at the sunny glass entry. Inside, the solid double brick construction and original details give the home a distinctive feel, with plenty of opportunity to add your own touches over time.
The generous front living area enjoys lovely views across the garden, with a slow combustion fire providing a cosy focal point. This space flows naturally into the formal dining area, creating an inviting setting for everyday living and entertaining. The adjoining kitchen offers stone benchtops, ample cabinetry and quality appliances, including an electric oven, gas cooktop and dishwasher.
The main bedroom is located downstairs, complete with two built in robes and an ensuite featuring a corner bath. Direct access leads to an additional room, currently used as a spacious home office with a desk and shelving. This versatile space opens up plenty of possibilities, whether as a fifth bedroom, creative studio, media room or additional living area.
Upstairs, three further bedrooms each feature built in robes and large windows capturing views across the surrounding greenery. A second living area opens through glass sliders to a north facing balcony, offering a wonderful spot to enjoy the treetop outlook. A family bathroom completes the upper level, providing a separate area with room for everyone to spread out.
Practical additions include an internal laundry, downstairs powder room, under stair storage and a mudroom connecting to the backyard. Outside, the private rear garden is framed by greenery, with a generous sunny patio providing a lovely setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. There is exciting scope to further enhance the home and create a stronger connection between the indoor and outdoor spaces.
Clianthus Street is a beautiful tree lined address in the heart of O'Connor, moments from O'Connor Ridge and within easy walking distance of Lyneham and O'Connor shops. Local favourites include Tilley's Divine Café and Gallery, The RUC and The Duxton, while nearby parklands, walking trails and cycle paths make it easy to enjoy the outdoors. With Braddon, Dickson, ANU and Canberra's CBD all close by, this is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the vibrant lifestyle and village atmosphere of the inner north.
