Flexible Family Living or Dual Income Investment (Potential $880/week) - Move-in Ready
Set beneath the shelter of mature trees, this home carries the quiet charm of classic Watson living, with a single-level floorplan designed for rare flexibility. It can be enjoyed as a three-bedroom, two-bathroom home, or easily separated into a two-bedroom primary residence plus a one-bedroom self-contained annexe - ideal for multigenerational families, visiting guests, independent teenagers or potential rental income.
The garden draws you in slowly, while the timber deck creates a private place to sit with morning coffee, watch the seasons change and enjoy the calm of the street.
At the front, the two-bedroom residence holds its own easy rhythm. The main living room is generous and inviting, flowing through to the dining and kitchen, where everyday life feels practical and connected. Two bedrooms sit quietly on the other side of the home, serviced by the main bathroom, separate WC and full-size laundry.
At the rear, the home reveals its true point of difference - a self-contained one-bedroom wing with its own living/dining area, kitchen, bathroom, washing machine and separate entry. It is a rare and valuable addition, offering space for extended family, long-stay guests, a private work-from-home setup, or the possibility of an additional income stream.
Outside, the home offers a beautiful and spacious backyard, with fencing that helps separate the outdoor areas for each residence. A lockable double garage adds further practicality.
In one of Canberra's most loved inner-north suburbs, this is a property with warmth, flexibility and future potential - a home that offers more than one way to live - Live in the front and lease the back, keep family close while giving everyone their own independence, or secure a flexible investment in an established location where adaptable homes are always in demand.
