39B Cowper Street, Ainslie, ACT 2602

Informing it all is an easy-care lifestyle, as a lovely balance of generous light filled spaces give way to an outside room that reads as internal. Clever design has created a joyful home, where every inch of space is cleverly utilised, gifting a quintessential indoor-outdoor lifestyle with lovey grassed area for children to play.

A wonderful renovation has expanded the home to include the ultimate outdoor arena, sheltered from the elements, protected and informed by lush green walls. Walls of glazing open and invite glorious sunshine, adding to a distinct feeling of lived serenity and making for quiet the relaxed entertainer.

At once open and private, this gorgeous four-bedroom home, sits quietly at the end of a battle-axe block, and enjoys a long driveway that ushers to a double garage. The home is ideally placed, a few steps from the much loved Ainslie shops, flanked by Majura Sporting Fields and Mount Ainslie Reserve. This wonderful spot is steeped in village peace yet whisper close to the CBD and all the exciting offerings of the Dickson and Braddon precincts.

A lovely soothing materiality feels in synch with the peaceful parklands of old Ainslie and the nearby bush reserve. Honeyed floors stretch to meet crisp white walls and double glazed bi-folds can be flung open to usher in summer breezes. The open plan living, dining and kitchen is designed to allow conversations to flow, the whole social arena opening fully to pavilion living, with plenty of room for dining and lounging. The kitchen is neatly housed in one corner and features dark stone benchtops and sleek stainless-steel appliances. We love the simple monochromatic theme, the black Hampton style cabinetry handles sitting pretty, set against the crisp white cabinets and neat banks of drawers.

The cosy private wing houses a master bedroom with walk-in-robe and ensuite and three additional bedrooms. There is a family bathroom with a bathtub and separate toilet. Both bathrooms are finished in floor-to-ceiling tiling in soft nougat with white vanities, gifting a tonne of storage. All four bedrooms are blessed with large windows that capture landscape and gentle light.

The home is within walking distance of the much loved Ainslie shops, home to Edgar's gastro pub, the award-winning IGA and hatted Pilot restaurant. Moments from the independent restaurants and bars of the Dickson and Braddon precincts, a stone's throw from the city, the location is highly coveted. Many of Canberra's best schools are at your doorstop and the ANU is not far. The home is close to transport, including the light rail which whisks you straight to the CBD.
