This charming three-bedder has been lovingly renovated, creating a cohesive and light filled family home. Old and new are effortlessly fused and a lovely attention to detail delivers a soulful and considered essence. Bookended by tranquil gardens, the home spills to curated alfresco experiences on two sides. And the locale is perfection a sleepy cul-de-sac, connected inner north lifestyle, and a surrounding of soothing green spaces.

The frontage is classic Canberra, leafy native gardens, historic semi-detached brick form modernised by the addition of a big, sheltered front deck. A circular drive makes life easy and there is a single carport and garage beyond, with the convenience of an auto-roller door. We love the broad deck that makes you want to linger in the sunshine, taking in the pretty array of trees and plantings. The fire red front door pops against timber panelling, painted deep sky blue. It is a joyful entry sequence be-fitting a playful and nostalgic home, brimming with sunshine, glowing timber floors.

Walls have been removed, opening the home to light and landscape and creating a big, happy, living, dining and kitchen. Glass sliders spill to a timber decking where a thriving lemon tree perfumes the air with blossom. From here you step down to a swell of lawn, shaded by a mature cherry tree.

We love the dotting of open shelves, providing storage and display. And the way the laundry has been cleverly converted to also incorporate a stylish bathroom. You can stand beneath the rain shower and gaze across the garden, enjoying a sequestered privacy. Delicate glass shelving provides a spot for essential products; the vanity and additional storage is generous, and there is a discreet space for the washing machine and dryer.

The contemporary kitchen is bright and welcoming, with a big window above the sink overlooking the front deck. Crisp white cabinetry harmonises with a stacked tiled splash back, timeless black granite worktops, and modern stainless-steel appliances. One imagines gatherings with friends, spilling to the front or rear, sharing great food and stories. Or quiet weekend breakfasts alfresco style, lingering over coffee amidst the birdsong.

A door set with patterned amber glass speaks to the era of the home and can be closed to privatise the sleeping wing. The master takes in the leafy backyard and retains the original built-in-robe. Sitting adjacent is the second bedroom which is currently fashioned as a generous walk-in-robe. There is also a third bedroom with great storage, that gazes out and across the picturesque frontage. The family bathroom delivers a pop of deep blue and there is a relaxing bathtub, plus the convenience of a separate toilet.

This dynamic but peaceful little pocket places you within reach of all the enticing cafes, eateries, shops and wellness options that make the inner north so coveted. It is a few steps to Lyneham High and a shade dappled walk to Lyneham Village Centre and the schools that butt the broad expanse of ovals and playgrounds. Catch some live music at the nearby Tilley's Divine Café and Gallery or meet friends for coffee at a fav coffee spot on the Lonsdale strip. Explore Booklore for great second hand reads, peruse Q Gallery or grab a local wine from Ainslie Cellars. Age-old street trees, shared biking and walking paths, wetlands and endless parks, create a village experience just moments from the Dickson Precinct, ANU, New Acton precinct and the CBD.
