This classic Canberra red brick home has been thoughtfully refreshed, blending character with modern convenience to create a versatile property perfect for families, investors, or those looking for additional income potential. With ducted reverse-cycle heating and cooling, solar panels, and a functional floorplan, this residence is move-in ready and offers options you won't often find. Situated on tree-lined Dickinson Street-arguably Watson's best-you are just a short walk from the playing field, school, cafés and new adventure playgrounds.
As you step inside, you're welcomed into a light-filled living room, complete with a split system for year-round comfort, which flows seamlessly into the kitchen and dining area. The kitchen is well-equipped with quality BOSCH appliances, including dishwasher, stovetop and oven, along with plenty of storage for everyday ease.
Accommodation includes three bedrooms, each with thoughtful features. The main bedroom enjoys built-in robes with abundant storage and a large north-east facing window that floods the room with natural light. Bedroom two includes custom-fitted cabinetry, while bedroom three offers a fold-away table and wall of wardrobes, making it a flexible space for work, study, or guests. The bathroom is both practical and inviting, with a separate bath and shower, plus separate toilet for added convenience.
The walk-through laundry opens directly onto the backyard, where a private retreat awaits. Framed by thoughtfully designed native landscaping and a tranquil dry pebble creek designed by a local designer, the outdoor space blends ease of maintenance with natural beauty. A sunlit grassed area offers room for kids or pets to play, while the garden sheds provide handy storage. At the heart of it all, a welcoming open-air dining space on two large and sturdy decks invites you to gather with friends, enjoy a quiet coffee in the morning sun, or host relaxed weekend barbecues in your own backyard sanctuary.
Adding incredible value is the approved granny flat, complete with its own kitchenette, bathroom, laundry, living area, and separate bedroom. Fully equipped with split system heating and cooling, storage, and modern finishes, it's perfect for extended family, guests, or rental income.
For even more flexibility, there's the option to purchase a repurposed shipping container, designed as a multipurpose space. Whether you need a home office, gym, studio, or simply extra storage, this clever addition provides endless possibilities.
This is a rare opportunity to secure a refreshed home with a huge amount of flexibility and with all the hard work done-ready for families, investors, or anyone looking for a property that can truly adapt to their lifestyle.
