This extended and updated Canberra red brick home is situated in an ideal peaceful location, only a short walk from The Knox and Gang Gang cafes, Farmers' Market, Majura Primary School, the fantastic new Inner North playground and metres from a light rail stop!
A mature tree shades the front garden which adds to the street appeal. The sheltered front courtyard is bordered with azaleas, promising a splash of spring colour.
Striking hardwood parquetry flooring showcasing beautiful shades of Tasmanian Oak is a highlight, from the entry throughout the home.
Open plan living includes family, dining and kitchen, and opens onto a large, north facing, mesh-enclosed entertaining deck, which can be enjoyed year round. The updated kitchen features stone benchtops, a Miele gas cooktop and oven, dishwasher and walk-in pantry. A window to the entertaining area is a handy servery.
A sliding door from the family room leads to the light filled extension at the front of the home, which can be used flexibly, as a sunken lounge, large fourth bedroom, even a home office, with an external sliding door to the front courtyard garden.
The spacious primary bedroom extension features a built-in robe and bright modern ensuite with an oversized shower, a ceiling fan and access to the entertaining deck.
Second and third bedrooms also offer built-in robes and there is a study. The updated bathroom has a separate w/c. Solar hot water and a solar array of 12 panels minimise costs.
Ducted gas heating and ducted evaporative cooling ensure comfort.
A paved entertaining area in the north facing rear garden has a brick barbeque at its centre and is safely enclosed with Colorbond fencing. Two large raised veggie beds have yielded plenty of fresh produce and there is a 4,500 litre tank with pump, and an automated inground sprinkler system to the courtyard azaleas and front lawn.
An enclosed carport with an auto door opens to a second carport and rear shed, with parking in between.
Walk or take the tram just one stop to the wide variety of restaurants and shopping in Dickson and the swimming pool. A selection of well regarded schools are within easy reach, as is the Australian Catholic University.
A home ready to move into, with all the advantages of the great location on the doorstep!
