Positioned within the "Newtown" development, 5/50 Hillcrest Street, Crace presents a rare opportunity to secure a ground floor apartment with an exceptional sense of space, privacy and outdoor living.
Offering a unique layout rarely seen in apartment living, the home is complemented by expansive courtyards to both the front and rear, creating a seamless indoor–outdoor connection and a lifestyle that feels more like a townhouse. The front courtyard extends to an impressive 102m2, while the rear courtyard offers a further 42m2, providing multiple zones to relax, entertain or simply enjoy the space.
Internally, the apartment is well considered and functional, with 59m2 of living designed for comfort and ease. The open-plan living and dining area connects effortlessly to the outdoor spaces, allowing natural light to flow throughout. The kitchen is practical and well-positioned, supporting everyday living without compromising on space. It features stone benchtops, ample storage, induction cooktops and quality appliances.
The home has been freshly updated with new hybrid vinyl flooring and a full repaint, giving it a clean, modern feel ready to move in and enjoy. Two well-proportioned bedrooms are thoughtfully separated, serviced by a central bathroom, while 2 x car spaces (side by side) with 2 x storage cages adds further convenience.
Year round comfort is ensured with reverse cycle heating & cooling (2 x split systems), boasting an EER of 6.0 stars, keeping the ongoing energy costs low.
Crace continues to stand out as one of Gungahlin's most tightly held and well-planned suburbs, known for its strong sense of community and lifestyle offering. Located just moments from the Crace local shops, cafés, gym and medical facilities, and with easy access to Gungahlin Town Centre, the City and major arterial roads, the position offers both connectivity and convenience.
Surrounded by open green spaces, walking trails and nature reserves, it is a location that balances everyday living with a relaxed, outdoor lifestyle.
