Tucked to the side of a boutique complex, the home enjoys a quiet, leafy setting with easy access to green lawns, winding pathways and tree-filled gardens.
This light filled two-bedder spills to a sunny balcony that overlooks a grove of silver birches and the grassy surrounds of North Canberra Baptist Church. Sitting just across the way from Turner School and the fields that extend down to Sullivans Creek, the build enjoys the kind of birdsong tranquillity that usually comes from living within the countryside. Yet it is just a stroll to the happenings of O'Connor Village, the dynamic Braddon scene and the CBD.
We love the vintage scheme of peach and baby blue, matched with an earthy terracotta. And the sweet gardens, all lime green topiary and age-old trees and bursts of flowering agapanthus. Access is via a side lane which blurs to pathways that allow you to explore the expansive rear gardens. There is also a fenced communal barbecue area with pergola sheltered tables for gathering with family and friends.
No.33 perfectly placed to enjoy an open air feel, peacefully away from the comings and goings of the street. Sunlight stripes the soft carpet that stretches to meet both terracotta tiling and creamy walls. The open plan living, dining and kitchen flowing via french doors to the eastern balcony, the perfect sun nook for that first morning cuppa.
The kitchen is nicely delineated to one side while still enjoying an open conversational mood. The pink and blue theme combines with a porcelain double sink and tiled splashback, with delicate mosaics and a dotting feature of tiles. Timber beams grace the high ceiling and the cabinetry gifts a spot for everything, while modern updates gift a dishwasher and electric oven and cooktop.
You can see the mountains from the master bedroom and there is a built-in-robe for seamless storage. The bathroom has a corner tub and a laundry tucked away on one side. Blue mosaics decorate the white tiling in a nod to the kitchen and terracotta tiles are earthy underfoot. The second bedroom is graced by morning light and overlooks the balcony to the treetops beyond.
Underpinning it all it the lifestyle – explore Braddon by day or by night…great coffee, food, drinks, exercise, community. It is not far to the light rail and within walking distance of the CBD, connecting you to some of the best restaurants, bars and shops that Canberra has to offer. Meander through leafy parkland to the fabulous O'Connor shops with local favs including Flatheads for fish and chips, The Duxton for streetside eating and live music and The Ruc for relaxed drinks and a game of bowls. Throw in the pine tree dotted Haig Park, the nearby Turner Parkland, the walking trails of O'Connor and Ainslie Reserve and Lake Burly Griffin, and you have the best of urban living, with a restful dollop of country peace.
