Overview

Inner North Ease in Northgate Gardens

Positioned in one of the best suburbs in Canberra, this first-floor apartment blends lifestyle and convenience in the leafy Northgate Gardens development. With well-kept gardens, secure entry and a peaceful community atmosphere, the complex has long been a favourite among both owner occupiers and investors. You're moments from Braddon's vibrant café scene, the Canberra CBD and some of the best green spaces the Inner North has to offer. The light rail is easily accessible with Ipima Street and Macarthur Avenue stops both just a short walk away. Inside, the home offers generous proportions and thoughtful design. The open plan living and dining area flows seamlessly onto a private balcony with calming garden views, the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind in the evening. The kitchen is modern with a Bellini electric cooktop, electric oven, dishwasher and plenty of storage, making daily living easy. A separate laundry and a full-size bathroom with both a bath and shower add to the home's practicality and comfort. The two bedrooms are spacious, filled with natural light and complete with built in wardrobes. A split system air conditioner in the living space ensures comfort throughout the seasons. You'll also enjoy the convenience of an automatic single lock-up garage with additional storage, a rare bonus so close to the city. Whether you're a first home buyer seeking location and lifestyle, or an investor looking for a strong asset, this property is one to inspect.
